Course Description: This course seeks to familiarize participants with the meanings of some of the most often read surahs of the Quran, exploring the overall themes of each surah, linguistic idiosyncrasies,  the relationship between given ayaat in a surah as well as elements of Quran science (e.g. surah type) and Quran exegetical theory (e.g. revelational context). It is hoped that with a better understanding of the meanings of these surahs, participants will enjoy better focus in their prayer and gain greater confidence that the Quran is, indeed, the infallible speech of our Loving Creator.
