Al-Hikmah: the Tafsir of the Four Quls

An evening with the last four surahs of the Qur’an: their meanings, their context and their recitation.

A full room at the Al-Hikmah tafsir session

The Al-Hikmah Series spent an evening with four short surahs many of us have known since childhood: Surah al-Kafirun, al-Ikhlas, al-Falaq and an-Nas.

Mufti Suhail Ahmed Siddiqui al-Azhari explained their tafsir and the circumstances of their revelation, drawing out lessons that made familiar words feel new. Qari Shafiq Na’imi al-Azhari then helped everyone improve their tajwid.

The room was full of young people and elders alike, united by love for the Qur’an. Al-Hikmah returns with new sessions from November 2026.
