What

ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER TO READ THE QURAN

A free communal gathering, facilitating the silent reading of the entire Quran in Arabic. All participants will read a portion of the Quran in each gathering, and we will complete all 30 chapters (juzz) of the Quran, remembering God and loved ones. 

READ

A communal silent reading of the entire Quran in Arabic. The Quran can be read in two ways: (1) reflecting on the meanings in the Quran (Q-Club), and (2) reading the Quran in Arabic (Q-Read). Both are important.

COMPLETION

There are various traditions mentioning the blessings at the completion (khatm) of pious acts. According to Razi, Q. 83:26 can refer to the completion of the Quran: ‘The completion thereof (khitamuhu) will be Musk: let those who strive, strive for this.’

CONNECT

‘Help one another in righteousness and piety’ (Q. 5:2). Given the distractions of daily life, these communal gatherings can encourage us to support each other and reconnect with the Quran.
