About this course
Explore the Prophet Muhammad’s early spiritual formation through Sūrat al-Muzzammil and Sūrat al-Muddaththir. The opening lessons consider the significance of the night in Islamic tradition and the question of why the Prophet is described as a witness, keeping these themes within the study of al-Muzzammil.
The discussion then turns to al-Muddaththir, with attention to the examples of Prophet Muhammad and Prophet Musa and the question of obliging others through favours. Together, these readings bring spiritual formation and the conduct of relationships into the same focused study.
