Meets in Musalla

Between translation, interpretation and reflection.

Every English Qurʾān is already an interpretation. A commentary on Shaykh Nuh Keller’s translation: comparing renderings against the Arabic, tracing words to their roots, and surveying the world of tafsīr.

Qamus means lexicon: the class builds one, word by word. Come as you are.

اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ

“Recite in the name of your Lord who created.”

Qurʾān, Sūrat al-ʿAlaq 96:1 — the first word to descend.
