Salamualaykum peeps. I know this community hasn't had much going on for a while. Work and personal stuff has really taken alot of my time. We are however going live today on youtube. Inshallah afterwards the plan is to continue with a QnA here on School. Please be sure to pull up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pm9itcgsmcY

If you could have your own Islamic library, what are some books you'd want in it. I mean besides the Quran, hadith books, and the biography of Muhamamd PBUH. TELL ME IN THE COMMENTS.

My favorite ayah (currently) is يَـٰبُنَىَّ أَقِمِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَأْمُرْ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ وَٱنْهَ عَنِ ٱلْمُنكَرِ وَٱصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَآ أَصَابَكَ ۖ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ مِنْ عَزْمِ ٱلْأُمُورِ ١٧ "O my son, establish prayer, enjoin what is right, forbid what is wrong, and be patient over what befalls you. Indeed, [all] that is of the matters [requiring] resolve." (31:17) What's your favorite ayah?

The Quranic author speaks with upmost confidence and openly challenges its readers and listeners. One of the falsification tests it presents is to bring a surah like it. "Or do they say [about the Prophet], "He invented it?" Say, "Then bring forth a surah like it and call upon [for assistance] whomever you can besides Allah , if you should be truthful." (10:94) FUN FACT🧠: The Quran meets such a high standard of Arabic grammer that IT BECAME THE TEXTBOOK OF GRAMMER FOR ARABIC (after challenging a society that glorified Arabic poetry). Just knowing this can help a non Arabic speaker appreciate the weight of the Quranic challenge. However, many still don't possess a holistic understanding and appreciation for this challenge. What does it mean to "bring a surah like it"? How can a text be gramatically miraculous? Isn't this challenge subjective? Islamic awareness breaks it down quite well.⬇️ https://www.islamic-awareness.org/quran/miracle/ijaz.html
