Juz’ 8: Dr. Farah Islam | Guidance & Reviving Hearts
In many places in Surah al-Anaam and Surah al-Araaf, Allah describes those that are guided, and the nature of guidance. Some of these verses are directly speaking about some of the Companions of the Prophet (s), while others speak of the Might of Allah and His ability to resurrect what He pleases, including the hearts of those ignorant to faith.
Dr. Omar Suleiman and Sh. Abdullah Oduro welcome Dr. Farah Islam to reflect on the themes of spiritual guidance in Juz 8.
