To establish a disciplined textual methodology for evaluating the non-chronological arrangement of the Qur'an as an intentional sequence rather than measured against modern linear narrative genres.
Developed a standardized analytical vocabulary operationalizing concepts such as naẓm (order), munāsabah (textual relations), ʿamūd (central thematic axis), surah unity, placement logic, and discourse movement.
Synthesized classical coherence frameworks with modern literary approaches to test structural claims against textual evidence across segmentation, symmetry, and macro-groups.
Demonstrated that non-chronological textual arrangement reflects deliberate structural logic and multidirectional discourse rather than arbitrary textual organization.
Formulated evidence-based criteria for testing structural coherence across differing classical and contemporary models of textual division.
