About the Project

Visual Quran leverages modern charting and graph libraries to bring the intricate structure and historical layers of the Quran to life.

This is also a data visualisation experiment. By using interactive charts, maps, and graphs, we aim to provide a deeper understanding of the Quran's content, context, and significance.

Our visualizations include:

• Juz & Surah Analysis: Explore dynamic charts that break down the Quran into its 30 Juz and 114 Surahs, revealing patterns in word count, themes, and more.
• Prophet Narratives: Follow interactive timelines and network graphs that map the stories of the Prophets mentioned in the Quran, showing their relationships and key events.
• Event Mapping: Discover significant Quranic events and locations through geo-tagged visualizations that contextualize historical narratives.
• Data-Driven Insights: Use filters, tooltips, and interactive dashboards to dive deep into the numerical and thematic data embedded in the Quranic text.
