Surah Ibrahim: Gratitude, Prayer, and Trust in Allah
Duration
Description
This 8-lesson Learning Plan is an English-adapted summary of Hidayaat Surat Ibrahim, a collective Qur’anic guidance work compiled by a group of specialists through a dedicated Qur’anic guidance project. The source identifies the work as gathered and extracted by specialists and produced under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Taha Abidin Taha Hamad, Professor of Tafsir and Qur’an Sciences at Umm al-Qura University. It draws from the surah’s major themes of revelation, gratitude, da‘wah, false promises, the good word, blessings, prophetic prayer, and the final warning that Allah is never unaware.
The plan guides learners through Surah Ibrahim as a journey from darkness into light. It reflects on how revelation rescues hearts, how gratitude preserves blessings, how messengers speak with clarity and patience, and how Ibrahim’s prayer teaches Tawhid, family concern, love of prayer, and complete dependence on Allah.
At the heart of the Surah is the prayer of Ibrahim (peace be upon him): a prayer for safety, protection from shirk, love for Allah’s sacred House, establishment of prayer, righteous descendants, gratitude, and forgiveness. This Learning Plan follows the Surah’s major movements and turns them into practical guidance for faith, family, da‘wah, gratitude, speech, patience, and preparation for the Hereafter.
