About this product:

An Explanation of Sūrah al-Kahf by Shaykh Dr. Furhan Zubairi is the first volume in a series that aims to provide a comprehensive commentary on the entire Qur’an. This book represents the author’s lifelong goal of producing a traditionally grounded yet modern tafsir in English for a Western Muslim audience. In this volume, An Explanation of Sūrah al-Kahf explores one of the Qur’an’s most frequently recited chapters, combining classical scholarship, contemporary insights, and a clear, accessible style that resonates with readers of all backgrounds.

Through An Explanation of Sūrah al-Kahf, readers journey into the timeless story of the “People of the Cave,” who stood firm in faith and sought divine protection through miraculous means. Shaykh Dr. Furhan highlights the Surah’s recurring themes — the trials of faith, wealth, knowledge, and power — emphasizing the fleeting nature of worldly life. His commentary draws out the profound wisdom embedded within these narratives, reminding readers that everything in this world is temporary, while faith and righteousness endure.

Unlike conventional commentaries, An Explanation of Sūrah al-Kahf goes beyond linguistic and historical analysis. Dr. Furhan Zubairi connects each verse to the moral and spiritual challenges faced in modern life, providing practical guidance on worship, character, and ethical living. By blending scholarly precision with relatable examples, he invites readers to reflect deeply on the Qur’an’s message and apply its lessons to their daily lives — making An Explanation of Sūrah al-Kahf an inspiring resource for students, seekers, and anyone wishing to strengthen their connection with the Book of Allah.
