13: Structure: Arrangement and Order of the Quran| Intro to Quran for Non-Muslims

Arrangement of Chapters from start to finish is also a part of the structure of a book, and the final two divisions cannot be understood without it. We’ll discuss these divisions after we have understood the Sequence or Arrangement of Quran.
Arrangement of Chapters in the Quran is not chronological, but rather substantive. This means, that sequence of Chapters in the Quran does not follow a linear timeline. In fact, the starting chapters of Quran were actually some of the last ones to have been revealed as per chronology. The arrangement of Quran is therefore very important and interesting.
