Q-CONNECT 2023-2024 Online: Zoom

Q. 95 & Q. 96 | COURSE CONTENT

Q-Connect allows for cumulative growth in engagement and understanding of the Qur’an. Over 3 years, we have studied 8 suras (Q. 87 – Q. 94) containing 150 verses in depth over 56 hours through Q-Connect.

This year we will continue our study of Juzz Amma focussing on Suras al-Tin (Q. 95) and al-‘Alaq (Q. 96).

We will undertake a guided reading of each Sura as well as exploration of ring structures and intra and inter Sura structural analyses as well as contextualisation within reference to other sections of the Qur’an and Prophetic Biography.
