Mizan (Arabic: ميزان, lit. 'balance') is a concept in the Quran, which has been described as "the principle of the middle path"^[1] and "the overarching divine principle for organizing our universe".^[2] Azizah Y. al-Hibri argues that Mizan, as the "divine scale", could be transformed into Adl in human realm.^[2]

Mizan also refers to the unique rhythmic meter of the musical movements within the Andalusian Nubah genre.
