Imam al-Razi and his Great Exegesis (and why you should study it with us)

[@W67w]

Love the translation. al Razi is criminally underappreciated in our time

[@BarisTitanX]

That's because he's a Jahmi. Just read what he says in 2:2.

You are doing excellent work, which is unfortunately criminally expensive. Knowledge like this should be extremely accessible to everyone so that it can have a global impact, especially in this age.

[@IbnAshur]

@@haleemulhassan9158 please let us know if you would like to fund our Centre and subsidise our courses. Perhaps you can create a scholarship fund so that deserving students can access the materials without any impediment to our own ability to pursue research, publishing and teaching. That being said, £111 for 8+ hours of quality teaching (less than £14 per hour) is not unreasonable and not prohibitive for average people in all parts of the world, while we certainly recognise that it’s a high cost in certain economies which we would love to serve as well. Please note that there are plenty of things that we provide for free, both on our own platforms and through partners. For those who truly need to study these paid courses, the hope is that they can access funding from their communities.

Fund it then

[@haleemulhassan9158]

@@hussas7 i cant afford to buy their subscription and you are telling me to fund them? :D

Jazakumullah khairan to the whole team for enabling this video. One suggestion i have is for the camera to be more zoomed on the speaker as the current setup makes them feel distant

[@IbnAshur]

@@hussainibnkawthar9398 fair observation. Thanks for your interest in our work 🤲🏼

[@Syedhsn]

Assalam, Please i want this, can a group of people buy one sub? Or can we apply for scholarship?

[@adralia23]

Guys, I'm curious, in international tafseer conventions, what language do the mufasirun casually use? Like in coffee breaks and stuff.. I assume it's English, or am I wrong?

[@richardanthony3267]

May Allah Bless you all, i really love to listen to Ustadh Sohaib Saeed, it's so important these days to educate us this way by looking ahead instead of looking back. Being constructive is so fundamental, thank you so much,🤲🏼

[@IbnAshur]

Thank you for your very kind comments ❤

[@TeddyBear-lb9ho]

Totally disagree. People today think they know better than the best generations of this ummat and look at where it has gotten us. We are weak and the laughing stock of the enemies of Islam. Muslims today need to be humbled and understand that we are failures when compared to those who actually stood by principle. Bypassing the Shariah injunctions, making Islam pick and choose, we have brought humiliation on ourselves.

[@n.s.5278]

Is the course open for English speakers?

[@IbnAshur]

@@n.s.5278 yes it is taught in English!

[@n.s.5278]

@@IbnAshur ok. I thought it would be all in Scottish.

[@IbnAshur]

@@n.s.5278 that’s some good trolling! Next time we will do it in Arabic with a Rayy accent.

[@n.s.5278]

@@IbnAshur sorry, Shaykh. Couldn't resist. Never heard a scholar with a Scottish accent before, but l appreciate what you are doing.

[@Greenpoint321]

Salams Sh Sohaib, does anything come to mind with regards to Imam Razi tafsir of a verse which is amazing and hasn't been stated by other mufassirs?

[@IbnAshur]

@@Greenpoint321 yes there is a lot in his tafsir which is unique, sometimes to do with the core interpretation of an ayah, and more often to do with ancillary questions. Of course, when people repeat those points in later tafsirs, it doesn’t sound so unique any more 😅

[@salahaddeen1269]

Shaykh Dr Shoaib Have you looked into Dr Bassem Awwad( the head of Arabic language department of the Jordanian ministry of education) the mechanicm of the clear Arabic tongue to interpret the Quranic miracle, here is a sample of it if you haven't kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3jCmGODeq-Hitksi=iQeAt6REKODbKorF

[@IbnAshur]

@@salahaddeen1269 thank you for sharing! I will have a listen to this. I can see btw his name is Dr Yusuf ‘Awwad.
