Qur’anic Themes and Parables

5 Jul 2025

16:15 - 17:15

City Hall

Shaykh Ahmed Saad Al-Azharij joins us to launch Parables from the Qur’an, the much-anticipated follow-up to Contemplating the Qur’an

This event offers a unique opportunity to delve into the thematic depth and metaphorical beauty of the Qur’an, drawing on classical scholarship and contemporary insight. While Contemplating the Qur’an provides a concise, accessible commentary across the thirty parts (juz') of the Qur’an, Parables from the Qur’an explores its rich use of metaphor and allegory, uncovering timeless lessons through reflective analysis. 

Whether you're a dedicated student or new to the Qur’an’s message, this session promises to deepen your understanding and connection to the divine word.
