RATIONALE

The Glorious Qur’an is the source of Islamic laws and rulings and the moral and social system for Muslims. It provides a comprehensive philosophy of religion and serves as the prime source of human values through which nations and civilizations prosper and develop. This signifies that the teaching of the Qur’an should not be restricted to the learning of the Tajwid rules or memorization only. Rather, it should embrace other dimensions including the understanding of the fundamental Qur’anic objectives, the study and exploration of its sciences, guidance, miracles and laws present in the creation of human being and the universe. Such a perspective would lead the Qur’an to meet the needs of the nation and the world through a ceaseless, unremitting cycle of contribution. This age of technology however, provides new methods and techniques that assist us in the study and benefit of the Qur’an, and the dissemination of awareness of the Qur’an so as to prepare a better future in which the Qur’an would represent the broader field for science, scholarship and culture. The interest in Qur’anic studies led to the discovery of its theories, truths and patterns in both the universe and life. It has become incumbent upon Muslims in an age of global cultural challenges to derive the essence of Qur’anic studies and interpretations and purge from them the negative effects that have accumulated throughout centuries of stagnancy. This would revamp the effect of the Qur’an in the niche of Muslim societies and the guidance of civilizational movements in the Ummah.
