Journeying our eyes through the Quran
It is narrated that Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (as) has said:
"In this Qur’an, there is a beacon of guidance, and torches [for navigating] through darkness. So, one must journey their eyes [through the Qur’an] and open them [to] its luminosity. Certainly contemplation brings life to the insightful heart, in the same way that light helps one who seeks the path in the dark."
(Reference: Al-Kafi, Volume 2, p. 600)
Taking inspiration from this hadith, for the 30 days of the month of Ramadan, we will journey our eyes through the Qur’an and explore themes from each juz of the Qur’an daily.
The approach of this series is to touch on a set of verses from each juz, and to then explore a specific theme.
The themes explored will include
- ones related to understanding God and His attributes,
- how to attain taqwa,
- understanding some of the beautiful stories and lessons that lie interspersed throughout the Qur’an.
We pray that this series will serve as a meaningful companion to all of you in this blessed month, as it takes you on a small journey throughout all 30 juz.
To make the most of this podcast series, we suggest following the steps below:
- Start by listening to the podcast episode each day, which will explore one theme relevant to the juz of the day.
- Read a juz of the Qur’an daily by reciting it in Arabic (or listening to it).
- Simultaneously read the translation in English.
- Recommended translations include the ones by: MAS Abdel Haleem, Ali Quli Qara’i, Saheeh International, and Talal Itani.
- Take notes, and share!
