Juz 17: Good is Not Good Enough | Sh. Waleed Basyouni | Season 6

Author: Yaqeen Institute March 17, 2025 Duration: 32:10
Why do some seem to have it all while others face constant struggle? Why do we face these trials? Life’s tests, whether of ease or hardship, offer profound wisdom to those who pause and reflect. Join Sh. Waleed Basyouni with hosts Dr. Omar Suleiman and Sh. Abdullah Oduro as they reflect on Juz 17, discussing the trials of wealth and poverty, the blindness of the heart, and how to use our blessings to draw closer to Allah.

There’s a particular rhythm to Ramadan, a time when many seek a deeper, more consistent connection with the Qur’an. Qur'an 30 for 30, a Yaqeen Series is designed to move with that rhythm, offering a daily companion throughout the month. Produced by the Yaqeen Institute and hosted by Dr. Omar Suleiman and Sh. Abdullah Oduro, along with various guests, this podcast takes a structured yet accessible approach. Each episode corresponds to one Juz’, or section, of the Qur’an, breaking the entire text into manageable, daily reflections. What you’ll hear isn’t just a recitation or a dense lecture; it’s a conversation that draws out the layers within these passages. The discussions weave together spiritual insights, the historical context behind the verses, and most importantly, how their wisdom applies to the challenges and questions of modern life. This makes the series equally valuable whether you’re encountering the Qur’an for the first time or have been studying it for years. The goal is to foster a genuine understanding and a personal connection, transforming a daily listening habit into a meaningful part of your Ramadan routine. Tuning into this podcast is an invitation to slow down and absorb the Qur’an’s messages piece by piece, finding both clarity and inspiration in its timeless guidance.
