“And Allah sets forth parables for people so that perhaps they remember.” Join us on a journey through the parables of the Qur'an. In this new and unique series, we will learn about the various examples that Allah gives us in the Qur'an, the lessons we can draw them, and the wisdoms that underly them. This will not simply be a tafsīr session, but will rather be an attempt to uncover the power of these parables and their relevance to our daily life and the events we are witnessing globally. This series will be presented by Ustadh Amir Abū Ghudda.
