Deviants incite violence and Islamophobes monger fear by misquoting the Quran. The result is division, confusion, anger, and a global rise of Islamophobia. In order for us to practically implement the Quran in a manner that allows us to serve Allah and reach out to those around us, we require a deep, balanced, and thorough understanding of the Quran in relation to the contemporary world.
See the Quran through the eyes of the companions. Because Quran Journey is a chronological study of the Quran in the order that it was revealed, you can join them on their journey as they discover the Quran ayah by ayah. We answer: why, when and where is this ayah revealed? How was it perceived and implemented by those who heard it? We explore the historical and textual contexts, imagery, literary phenomena, linguistic subtleties, and the art of transitions across the Quran.
