Guided Workbook
Let the Quran Revive Your Heart this Ramadan

Introduction
This guided workbook has been created for you to practice
taddabur (deep reflection) of the Quran. The workbook consists of a

Jumu’ah deeper look episodes posted every day during the month
of Ramadan on our YouTube channel linked here.
