Tafseer Course · Ages 13+ and adults
Study the meanings, context, and themes of the Quran with a teacher who draws on the classical tafseer tradition in clear, modern language.
About the course
The Tafseer of the Quran Course teaches students to understand the meaning of what they recite, verse by verse, using established sources of Quranic explanation. Each lesson takes a passage and works through its word meanings, its context of revelation where reported, and the message it carries for the reader today. No Arabic fluency is required to begin; translations are used alongside key Arabic vocabulary.
The course is grounded in the classical tafseer tradition, drawing on well-known works such as Tafseer Ibn Katheer and Tafseer as-Sadi, presented by the teacher in plain English rather than assigned as dense reading. Students learn how scholars explain the Quran through the Quran itself, through the Sunnah, and through the understanding of the earliest generations, so they can tell careful interpretation apart from guesswork.
Study begins with the short surahs students recite most often in prayer, which immediately transforms the experience of salah, then moves into thematic and longer-surah study. Every unit ends with a discussion class where students summarise the passage in their own words, an exercise that turns passive listening into real comprehension.
Curriculum
