A Journey Through My Quranic Archives

My first Quran Teacher and his notes - The First 10 Surahs (except Al-Fatiha)

While sifting through my old archives, I stumbled upon something that instantly transported me back in time—maps I had used in my Quranic studies nearly two decades ago. Each fold and line in those pages holds memories of my Arabic teacher, Khalil ur Rehman Chishti.

He had this remarkable ability to weave Quranic verses together, revealing connections I never would have seen on my own. His teachings were more than lessons; they were experiences that deepened my understanding of the Quran and its interconnected wisdom.

Seeing these maps again feels like rediscovering a hidden treasure. They carry the essence of those sessions, his insights etched into every annotation. Perhaps, just perhaps, someone else might find value in them too, as I once did.

Surah Baqarah - the verse 141, is kind of a central theme of this suran

Surah Aal-e-Imran, Verse 100, 101 - hold the central theme

Surah Nisa - Strong Family Unit leads to a strong society which leads to a strong foundation for State

Surah Maida

This map shows the connections between the first 5 Surahs - useful for understanding the structure of the Quran in the first 5 Surahs.

Surah Anfaal

Surah Taubah

Surah Younas

I have some more data in my old archives and notebooks, which I plan to share here.
