Heartwork - Surah Kahf - 1

Tonight's first session after our Ramadan series begins tonight, as we explore another milestone chapter of the Quran - Surah al Kahf, the chapter of The Cave. The Prophet ﷺ narrated a number of hadith about the virtues of Surah Kahf, teaching us that for the person who recites it on Friday, they will be immune from trials (small and large), and they will be the bearers of a light that will illuminate for and from them from week to week.⁠⁠The virtues of this Surah are accompanied by the timeless lessons that are contained within it. The detailed explanation of the meanings of the Quran have identified four major sections/themes to this Surah, each of which carry its own specific blessed meanings and benefit for the reader.⁠Every program we’re able to produce and upload for our community online is possible through the support of our sustainers.
