Al-Bayan: Holy Quran Memorization Program For Youth

The Holy Qur’an is not an ordinary book but a miracle of the Holy Prophet and a guide for the entire humanity. Therefore, it is essential that we grasp its message early in life.

The youth often struggle to understand the Qur’an due to their lack of familiarity with common and oft-used Quranic and Arabic terminology.

In order to facilitate understanding of the Qur’anic message, this program is being introduced for the community youth. It will focus on memorization of the Suras, which in turn will help in understanding the meaning.
