AlMaghrib Institute: Heavenly Hues - Thematic Tafseer
Introducing AlMaghrib Institute’s brand new DOUBLE-WEEKEND-DEGREE Seminar
Heavenly Hues: Thematic Tafseer.
We all agree that the Qur’an is a message to Mankind, but what is at the heart
of this message? What is Allah telling us? Heavenly Hues: Thematic Tafseer will
not only allow you to understand the reason for the Qur’an’s revelation, it will
pinpoint the most important aspects of this message by analyzing verses based on
their overarching themes. You will come away from this seminar understanding the
objective of the Qur’an and the role it plays in defining your life.
Thematic Tafseer is the “Qur’anic science which interprets different issues and
themes in view of the Qur’anic objectives through the study of one Surah or
more; or through multiple Ayat.”
By Attending this Seminar you will:
*Finally understand why the Qu’ran is the greatest miracle given to mankind.
*Understand the evolution of Tafseer and how the scholars of the past have
studied the major themes of the Qur’an
*Have knowledge on the types and the sources of Qur’anic tafseer
*Learn the major themes of the Qur’an along with an explanation of importance of
each theme.
*Be able to speak to others about the Qur’an with knowledge and confidence.
The seminar will be held Friday 3/14/08 - Sunday 3/16/08 and the following
