Tadabbur-i-Qur’an
Encyclopedia : T : TA : TAD : Tadabbur-i-Qur’an
Tadabbur-i-Qur’an is a tafsir (exegeses) of the Qur'an by Amin Ahsan Islahi based on the concepts of thematic and structural coherence, which was originally inspired by Allama Hamiduddin Farahi. The tafsir is extended over nine volumes of six thousand pages. It was originally written in Urdu, but now it is being translated in English. The exegeses divides the Qur'an into seven parts, each with a distinct theme. Topics within a group are more or less in the order of revelation. Two surahs (chapters) of each group form a pair so that each member of the pair complements the other in various ways. These seven groups are as follows:
