Quran

Muslims believe Quran to be the Word of God (Allah). It was revealed to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ over a period of 23 years through the Archangel Gabriel (Jibreel) in the Arabic language, and has been preserved in its original form for more than 14 centuries. Accordingly, this course aims to equip the students of Quran (Muslims and non-Muslims alike) to be able to engage with it in its original language (i.e., Classical Arabic) and understand it directly. We believe no translation can do full justice to the meaning of the original language of the Book and thus the necessity of filling a perceived gap through this course.

By enrolling in this course, it is hoped that students will:

• Be able to appreciate the beauty of the language used in the Quran.
• Have a better understanding of Islam and the main source of Muslim beliefs.

Some key highlights of this course are:

• The medium of instruction is English.
• Developed and delivered by highly qualified and experienced Scholars (Ulama and Muftian) of the Quran.
• Based on a tried and tested methodology for translating Quranic words into English.
• Through this approach, students will understand the root of the word and its conjugations.
• Students will be introduced to basic Arabic grammar to help them understand the Quran better.
• In addition to video-on-demand lectures, weekly ‘live’ interactive online sessions allowing students to ask questions and obtain clarifications directly from the instructor.
