A QUESTION WORTH MAKING TIME FOR
What is Allah telling me?
If someone asked you what the Quran says about our purpose in life, how would you answer?
What does it teach us about navigating hardship, caring for others or finding peace in our hearts?
We may know the stories of the Prophets, but do we understand why Allah tells them—and what they mean for our own lives?
When we recite the Quran, how much of its message do we understand? And how often do we pause to ask: What is Allah telling me, and how can I put it into practice?
A guided journey through Allah’s revelation.
The Quran: A Year of Understanding is an opportunity to explore these questions with Shaykh Sa’ad Al Attas. Across 36 weeks, this accessible, structured course will take you on a journey through all 30 juz, exploring the central themes, stories and lessons of Allah’s revelation.
Moving through the Quran in sequence, we will explore the main messages of each juz, reflect on selected passages and consider what they teach us about our relationship with Allah, ourselves and those around us. This guided overview will help you recognise connections across the Quran and approach your own reading with greater understanding and reflection.
