About this course

This course familiarizes students with Islam’s primary sources, the Qurʾān and Ḥadīth. Special emphasis will be placed on the various disciplines related to the Qurʾān and Ḥadīth as textual sources of Islam. Students will study the Qurʾān’s preservation, contextualization, and abrogation, as well as the collection, authentication, and contents of the Ḥadīth tradition.

By the end of the course, students will understand the historical canonization of Islam’s primary sources and appreciate the tools developed by Islam’s righteous predecessors to maintain the authenticity and integrity of the sacred texts and also develop the practice of reflective engagement with the Qurʾān and Sunna, enlivening their relationship with Allah and His Prophet.
