1. A Journey Through Surah Qaf – A Wake-Up Call

Description

This profound four-session series invites teenagers to embark on a transformative journey through Surah Qaf, exploring the glorious Quran, reflecting on Allah’s signs in creation, and understanding the resurrection.

Session 1: A Wake-Up Call

• Begins with reflecting on the centrality of the Quran in our lives through honest self-examination, asking how important the Quran truly is on a scale of one to ten
• Explores why our beloved Prophet ﷺ would recite Surah Qaf in large gatherings including Jumuʿah salah, Friday sermons, the two Eid salahs, and Fajr salah
• Examines the powerful beginning of the surah where Allah takes an oath by the glorious Quran, understanding the function of oaths and the meaning of al-Majid (lofty, glorious, majestic)
• Identifies the two key issues raised by the Quraysh: their amazement at receiving a human warner, and their denial of resurrection after becoming dust
• Discovers Allah’s absolute knowledge through understanding that everything is recorded in al-Lawh al-Mahfuz, and explores the consequence of rejecting truth, leading to confusion and loss
• Reflects deeply on Allah’s signs in creation including the flawless sky, the earth with its mountains and joyous plants, blessed water from the sky, and tall palm trees laden with dates
• Understands the similarities between water from the sky and revelation from the sky, both being sources of life
• Examines how Allah brings dead land back to life as proof of resurrection, and learns from history by studying nations who denied their messengers including the people of Noah, Rass, Thamud, Ad, Pharaoh, Lot, the Forest Dwellers, and Tubba
• Includes engaging activities such as drawing aspects of nature, the ABC fruit and vegetable game, matching pictures to ayat, and a four-session competition to encourage memorisation and active participation

Perfect for teenage learners in madrasahs, homeschools, and Islamic study circles, this presentation nurtures hearts through authentic Quranic tarbiyah rooted in the values of certainty, servitude, and love for Allah’s words.
