RAMADHAN DAY 18~

Tafseer (or tafsir) is to understand (the meanings)
of the Quran. Many Muslims are only taught to
read and memorize the Quran, but it's important to
understand what the ayats and verses mean so
that we can imply and practice them in our daily
lives
As a non-Arabic speaker myself, I find it difficult to
understand the meanings, especially in prayers. But
that's not an excuse for us to escape from learning
the tafseer of the Quran!
"This is a Book full of Blessings that we have
revealed unto you so people ponder upon its verses
and men of intellect may reflect." (38:29)
Many people assume that the Quran is the book of
"No's and Don'ts" but that's not true at all! The
Quran covers many aspects of human life, such as
political, manners and many more! Being a "visual-
oriented" person, I enjoy stories of the great
Prophets most!
So get your friends or your family members,
organize tafseer sessions with them! It's more fun,
meaningful and educational to sit in a group and
study about the beautiful words of Allah together.
Upon studying, make sure to get the correct
interpretations of the Quran by referring to
knowledgeable scholars and what not. There are
many books and websites for that; you just need
an extra effort to obtain them
Goodluck and have fun! Don't forget to spread
the knowledge around!
