Asaam Anikam,

I'm going to

to la vakat everyone.

Welcome back to parables of the Quran.

Have you done all every night we are reflecting Monday through Friday

on a different element of the Quran.

And this is, of course, the first program of the week,

and it's one that allows us to reflect deeply on the

Amthal in the Quran, on the parables in the Quran which Allah's al-Ahrazālā gives to us and

those parables offer infinite opportunity for reflection.

And, in inshallah, as we spoke last week about, you know,

hypocrisy and sincerity and the importance of having that light kindle.

Today we're going to talk about what opportunity

looks like to come back to Allah Subhana

to Allah Subhanao

even from a faraway distance from him.

And in-sala,

with that, I'm going to hand it off to Uadatasneim al-Tib, and she'll talk about the context and the

parable Bididahitah that we'll be covering tonight.

San Juan from everyone.

Glad to be back again this week.

...
