Things that amazes you/blows your mind about the Quran

[anotherlevel]

There are SO many things that do and I thought this would be a great thread to share yours and an opportunity for us all to connect and to learn more about our Holy Quran.

I just saw this on Instagram.

JazakAllah khair.

For me, I love that there is guidance in the Qur'an for any situation, and the sense of calm and peace that listening to even a few verses can bring.

Salaam Alaikum what a great idea for a thread @anotherlevel

I am not a native Arabic speaker so even though I do read the Qur’an in Arabic, I mostly rely on English translations. I feel like I can appreciate the Qur’an more if I actually know what I’m reading even though I know no translation can do full justice to the original.

I try to read the translation daily since I was a teenager and for me, what’s amazing is that often times I will come across a verse which seems to be totally brand new something which I could have sworn I have never read before but of course this can’t be true- I see it as a miracle that the Qur’an will always have something new and wonderful to offer every time you read it.

I hope that makes sense!

If you're looking for an accessible English translation I'd highly recommend The Study Quran by Seyyed Hossein Nasr

Surah yasin. With the description of the sun and moon phases. Always makes me feel warm and fuzzy
