We live in an age when many Muslims, especially those in Western societies, are asking deep questions about the Qur’an: Has it truly been preserved unchanged? How do we respond to claims about “violent verses”? What does it offer us in the modern world? Quran in Modern Times, running from November 4 to December 23, 2026, is a 7-week journey designed to answer these questions with clarity, confidence, and depth. Each week, you’ll watch pre-recorded video lessons on core themes, then join a live discussion and Q&A session every Wednesday at 6:00 PM EST to engage directly with instructors and classmates. Google Classroom readings, weekly tasks, and fun Gimkit quizzes make learning both memorable and enjoyable. With an average of just 3 hours per week, you will explore revelation, preservation, recitations, abrogation, the miracle of the Qur’an, and its vision of civilization. You will gain the ability to respond to common critiques with evidence-based reasoning and leave with a personalized plan for lifelong engagement with the Book of Allah. If you want to approach the Qur’an with greater confidence and deepen your connection with it, there may be no better time to begin. 🔗Enroll now: respectgs.us/quran-in-modern…
