Reflect. Understand. Live the Quran. Everything with Fussilat!
Introduction
Indeed, The Quran is not merely only a book to be recited but it is a divine conversation meant to be understood, reflected upon, and lived by. While recitation brings blessings, Tadabbur (reflection) brings transformation. But what can we do to enlighten our understanding that truly benefits us in both worlds! You can do so by reading the Quran with Tafseer!
The science of Tafseer opens the door to understanding the Quran as the Sahabah and righteous scholars did.
Undoubtedly, In today’s world, Muslims face a growing need for spiritual clarity, moral direction, and rooted faith. So, Tafseer is the bridge between reading the verses and experiencing their meanings in our daily lives. Whether it is a verse about patience during hardship, or a command to uphold justice and mercy, Tafseer connects the heart to the wisdom of divine revelation.
Through this Tafseer course by Fussilat, students don’t just “study” the Quran, they understand it.
Note: This program is open to all Muslims! Men and women, young and old, whether you’re starting your journey or wish to deepen your relationship with the Quran, you are welcome!
What You Will Learn
This course offers more than just explanations. It provides context, depth, and application.
With us, you will study:
- Word-by-word Meaning: Understand the exact language of the Quran by breaking down each verse word-by-word. This builds a strong connection to the Arabic text, even for non-native speakers.
- Historical & Revelation Context: Discover when and why each verse was revealed. Learn about the situations during the time of the Prophet (PBUH) that shaped the verses, making them more relatable.

- Applications in Modern Life: Tafseer isn’t only about past events. We explore how verses guide modern challenges. Relate it with family, society, stress, injustice, or inner peace. Learn how to live by the Quran, verse by verse.
- Reflections from Classical and Contemporary Scholars: We study from well-known works of Tafseer like Tafseer Ibn Kathir, Tafseer al-Sa’di, or Tafseer al-Baghawi, as well as bring in relevant reflections from contemporary scholars, ensuring a balance between authenticity and relatability.
