Easing into Ramadan with the Qur’an
By Afra Jalabi
This workshop will examine some key passages and verses that enable the reader to navigate this landscape and travel its various neighborhoods, enabling access to the Qur’an’s exciting realms for intellectual growth and personal healing. In dealing with the language barrier of the Qur’an, it will provide practical tools to open “horizons” and enlighten the self within.
