Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl presents his Quranic commentary on Surah 97: Al Qadr, Surah 113: Al Falaq, and Surah 114: Al Nas as part of the ongoing Project Illumine: Light of the Quran series at The Usuli Institute (www.usuli.org). Recorded at The Usuli Institute on 15 April 2023.
Project Illumine is a three-year-long intensive immersion into the unique moral messages in each of the 114 surahs (chapters) of the Quran, the fruit of this scholar's lifetime relationship with the Quran. Surah 97: Al Qadr is the 110th surah in the Project Illumine journey, Surah 113: Al Falaq is the 111th, and Surah 114: Al Nas is the 112th. This is not the traditional line-by-line exegesis, but a chapter-by-chapter thematic approach that seeks to rediscover the original meaning received by the early Muslims that sparked their passion such that they transformed from desert dwellers to civilization builders. It is an investigation of the timeless moral and ethical lessons of the Quran then applied to our modern day. In the introduction, Research Fellow Rami Koujah raises some interesting questions and offers some comic relief.
