Bismillahirahmanirahim. This text aims to inform readers of a miraculous aspect of the Quranic script called Tawafuq, (miraculous visual alignments of certain words and phrases in patterns in the Quran) which hitherto seems to be somewhat obscure, despite its immense importance and relevance, including to the layman and to the scholar of the Quran. Raising awareness of Tawafuq is one of the most fundamental tasks of teachers of Islam and the Quran today. Tawafuq can greatly challenge much of the "revisionist" style of history that criticises traditional Islamic narratives of how the Quran was revealed, as well as those criticising the structure of the Quran. Aside from offering evidence of the Divine nature of the Quranic script, Tawafuq alignments often have a meaning. Studying Tawafuq together with another relatively new field of Quranic research on circle structures in the Quran might offer crucially important findings about the Quran and its interpretation. Tawafuq can also save the faith of many in an era favouring empirical evidence. Tawafuq is not an obscure esoteric branch of Quranic studies, but an often easily and indisputably observable aspect of the Quranic script. Someone might not be able to understand the irrefutable linguistic and mathematical miracles of the Quran, but they can easily see the Tawafuq alignments. As such, raising awareness of Tawafuq is one of the most important tasks of the Ummah today. This text will describe what Tawafuq is, some of its implications, some methods by which it can be studied together with some other fields of Quranic research, some suggestions for further avenues of research including suggestions based on original observations, and some methods by which Tawafuq may be promoted.
