The course aims to uncover the intricacy behind Qur'anic expressions and their layered meanings, demonstrating how linguistic nuances contribute to theological, legal, and spiritual interpretations. By engaging deeply with the Qur'an’s language, students will refine their ability to extract subtle meanings and develop a profound appreciation for its literary miracle.
