"WONDERS OF THE UNIVERSE"
from our happy students all over the world:

Subhanallah!

This was such a wonderful course by sisters Nazmina and Farah. I have been waiting for "Brain Bites Food For Thought" to come out with a course for adults and this did not disappoint!
Being a student of the "Arabiq Online for Busy Women" course, I knew I could expect the same warmth and passion for the Quran from sister Nazmina in this course as well. What a beautiful and effortless melding of science and the Quran.
There is much to take in, ponder on and InshaAllah act upon as we draw closer to the Quran and Allah (swt) through courses like this. I truly did not want this course to end.

Eye (and soul)-opening course!

This course has been brilliantly designed by the combined efforts and knowledge of esteemed sister Nazmina and Farah, Masha'Allah!
The crisp illustrations, explanation and demonstration of Allah's signs with regard to creation of earth, the sky in compliment with the universe and all that exists will fascinate you incredibly.
This course will without fail open your eyes, and soul in absolute marvel to reflect and understand with deepest appreciation for Allah's Grandeur, Might and Power.
As a devout lover of nature, I genuinely enjoyed every ounce of this course. And no doubt will you!

This is how Tauheed should be taught

If you want to have your mind absolutely blown away by the sheer magnitude of Tauheed, do not delay in signing up for this course.
Incredible co-relation between Sister Farah's scientific information and Sister Nazmina's Arabic knowledge.
A true galaxy of information delivered in the most beautiful manner. Engaging presentations with interesting and relevant graphics, this course has truly raised the bar for any future Islamic courses.

I will definitely be watching these lessons again and again, just to absorb the sheer brilliance of the Holy Quran. Cannot wait for more courses from this duo.

Amazing course!

I absolutely loved this course and learned so much. The connections and parallels between science and the Qur’an were so profound!

Very beneficial, very unique

I loved this course and enjoyed everything about it! It was very well articulated and the content was just enough to build understanding and yet so rich in knowledge!
I'm amazed at how simplified it was while it touched on the complex and very significant topics. Both sister Nazmina and sister Farah collaborated beautifully to give insights into the Quran as well as scientific discoveries.
I loved the choice of images. I’d recommend watching it on big screen, if possible as it looks splendid
Such a unique course is a blessing from Allah for those who wish to get closer to Him Alhamdulillah.

Absolutely wonderful

The course "Wonders of the Universe" is so fascinating, well explained by both sister Nazmina and sister Farah that it took me only few days to complete the course.
My faith has increased by realising even more how wonderful and perfect is Allah 's creation and Allah's words throughout the Holy Quran, and how little and ungrateful we are compared to Almighty Allah who has created all this for one purpose: to provide us with all the means and necessities so that we can live our lifes comfortably and serve Him swt. Soubhan'Allah! Thank you very much sister Nazmina and sister Farah for this wonderful trip around the universe.

So much in-depth knowledge

I have no words to describe what I learnt in the course. Though I have completed it, I wish to refresh myself on the topic as there is so much in-depth knowledge, that I feel needs real understanding. I absolutely loved it. Inshallah before my six months are over will go through it. Thank you Nazmina and Farah

Incredible course!

This is the most fascinating and mind-blowing course and explanation I have learned about how our universe is explained in Quran. The course gave me literally goosebumps as I was learning all the fascinating facts and how you BOTH explained it so well, and made my connection deepen with Allah SWT. I just can't fathom HIS bounties, SUBHANALLAH! I would highly recommend this course for EVERYONE who is interested in deepening their connection and understanding of ALLAh SWT. And lastly many prayers, blessing , thank you for BOTH of the sisters to put so much effort to bring such beautiful knowledge for us. JAZAKALLAH KHAIR

Please continue as a series!

This course has been truly amazing! Honestly, my knowledge of the outer space is very limited, so I have been in awe of all the incredible existence beyond this earth which I have not discovered much at all. No wonder there are so many ayaat and references to the celestial creations in the Quran. All-h is so mighty and His creations are beyond my comprehension! Subhanall-h! Thank you for this course and for highlighting the wonders of the universe! I wish you would continue this course as a series!

Absolutely Amazing!

Our family loved going through this course and learning so much about the universe and about the Quran. We are sad that the course has come to an end! May Allah swt reward both of you for this endeavor and may He bless you both immensely.

Mind-blowing and inspiring!

I have absolutely loved this course. I left science at GCSE level and this course has been an amazing summary of all the terms that I thought I'd never fully understand with the added bonus of having the tawheedi perspective. Loved the way Sis Nazmina breaks down the Arabic terminology and Sis Farah explains difficult phenomena in an easily understandable way. I've been last minute and taken the course during the recent Perseid meteor shower, and also after listening to excellent lecture by Br Sadiq Damani on the 12th Imam and cosmic civilisation - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42PNgIFqfPI - all the jigsaw pieces are coming together and have inspired me to read more and keep learning! Thank you.

Nasreen Asaria

An amazing course

The space and the universe always intrigued me and the way Sister Nazmina and Sister Farah connected the scientific dots through quranic ayaat was simply amazing. I would highly recommend everyone to take this course. It will help you to perceive the world through quranic lens.

Absolutely amazing course

MashaAllah! It was such a fantastic course, and I enjoyed it with my children. It also helped us begin Quran journalling Alhumdolillah. May Allah bless you for your efforts. Ameen

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTORS:

Nazmina Dhanji

I'm the founder of Arabiq Online, and my fascination with the Qur’an started at age 17 when it hit me that I could understand Shakespeare and Chaucer, but couldn’t even understand Allah’s Book without a translation!

Why had Allah chosen Arabic and what was so special about it? Was I being magically ‘guided’ simply by reciting it? And why was it considered a ‘miracle?’

So started my journey into the Arabic language, and I've been studying, translating, and teaching it ever since!

In "Wonders of the Universe", I’m excited to share essential Arabic vocabulary and meanings with you about the cosmos that is used repeatedly in the Quran, and that will transform the way you approach Quranic verses about the universe and nature in the future. I can’t wait to welcome you in!

Farah Ebrahim

I'm Farah, the founder of Brain Bites – Food for Thought. My background is actually in finance, but my true passion lies in all things space-related, which has led me on an incredible journey to intertwine cosmic exploration with the profound teachings of the Holy Qur'an.

With over 15 years of hands-on experience working with children within my community, I launched my flagship series: Astronomy in Islam, which invites young explorers aged 6-13 to delve into the mysteries of the cosmos through live, online workshops, filled with brain-teasing puzzles, mind-boggling facts, and interactive activities. Alongside Astronomy in Islam, I also offer a range of other online programs, each designed to ignite curiosity and foster a deeper understanding of science and Islam.

In "Wonders of the Universe", I'm excited to share cutting-edge discoveries in space exploration, alongside the intriguing hints Allah (S) provides us in the Holy Quran regarding the intricacies of His creation. I can't wait to welcome you in!

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?

  •  Do I need to know Arabic to take this course?

    No. It's very helpful if you can read the Arabic script, even if it's slowly, but you don't need to have any prior knowledge of the meanings of Arabic words. In fact, you'll learn lots of Arabic effortlessly within this course.

  •  Is this course suitable for children?

    Yes. We recommend this course for anyone over the age of 7, simply because it might be a bit much for very young children. Our short courses are usually enjoyed by the whole family, and we encourage you to learn together.

  •  Is it open to both males and females?

    Yes, it is open to both.

  •  Is there a live element to the course? Do I have to be on Zoom?

    No. This is a self-paced course, taught through video lessons, so you don't have to show up live. You can study at a time that suits you, for as long as you feel comfortable with, in the comfort of your own space.

  •  When will the course start?

    The course content is available to you as soon as you enrol! No waiting around for zoom calls. You'll have access to your very own student dashboard, where we'll welcome you in and get you started.

  •  Why is the cost for your courses so low?

    Simply because we want to make them accessible and affordable for everyone! People usually don't hesitate to spend that amount on an evening out, a fancy abaya or a massage; and nor should they hold out when it comes to their mental and spiritual nourishment and self-care.

  •  Will the course still be available to purchase after Ramadan?

    Yes, Insha'Allah, but not at the low price it is currently. If you're too busy to commit to learning during the month of Ramadan, then we suggest you enrol now to take advantage of the special offer, then embark on your learning after the holy month is over and you're back to your regular routine. It's all good - go ahead and enrol!

  •  Do you have a refund policy for this course?

    Due to the digital nature of a short course, with all lessons immediately accessible, this particular course is non-refundable.

I am so glad I found you. This has really helped in my resolve to perfect my iman and understanding, and how to protect myself from Shaytan's misguidance as covered in the course! It's a must! I recommend this 100%

Shabnaz Hussein (Psychology of Shaytan)
UK

An excellent interactive course with lots of fascinating facts about our planet earth, different stars, our solar system and galaxies, all intertwined with verses from the Holy Quran! It sparked a lot of interesting discussions about space in our household! I love that my son has a newfound interest in space now which he is pursuing further. Thank you so much Brain Bites! I am looking forward to more courses like these please!

Samira Lalji (Astronomy in Islam)
London, UK

The explanation was fascinating for each of the gems. It was so hard to stop in between. I thoroughly enjoyed these 6 gems and looking forward to learning more in Quest 1 which I have already started.

Fatima Sheriff (Quranic Gems)
Vancouver, Canada

Sr. Nazmina has an amazing way of simplifying content in a manner that is easy to understand. Psychology of Shaytan is a must-take course for everyone I'd say. Along the way, one will also learn some Qur'anic Arabic vocabulary 🙂

Tanveer Hussein (Psychology of Shaytan)
Florida, USA

Abbas thoroughly enjoyed the Brain Bites classes. He looked forward to attending them and I could see he was thoroughly engrossed in them. He has always had a passion for science so I knew these classes would be perfect for him and an added bonus that he would learn about Islam and Science. We had lots of long and interesting discussions

Sumayya Juma (Astronomy in Islam)
Hertfordshire, UK

This course is eye-opener for anyone struggling on the right path. Thank you Nazmina as always for your insights into each verse and with your deep knowledge of Arabic, giving us an understanding of those critical words.
I definitely recommend this course. It’s truly worth every penny you pay for it!

Sayyedah Kermalli (Psychology of Shaytan)
USA

Quranic Gems course has definitely laid the foundation and made me fall in love with the Quran more than ever, I look forward to learning more from the Quests.

Sakina Abedi (Quranic Gems)
Australia

My children and I found this course really beneficial and easy to access. Talking to younger children about Shaytan can be a little tricky. This course helped me approach and discuss this subject with my little ones in a very practical and positive way. Thank you!

Sadiya Harji (Psychology of Shaytan)
London, UK

My 9 year-old absolutely loved Brain Bites astronomy course. It was fun, educational, and filled with amazing facts about astronomy and related so well to Islam and the Quran. My son learnt a lot of information and enjoyed every second. He was really sad that it ended and wanted more sessions. A massive thank you to Farah who was amazing and ensured every child had a chance to participate. The facts and videos she presented were mind-blowing! My son is definitely waiting for more sessions soon and I will be signing up to any adult classes too!

Tahera Sumar (Astronomy in Islam)
Hertfordshire, UK

I truly recommend this course because Ms. Dhanji provides a practical toolkit to avoid Shaytan’s ambushes and to realize the mechanisms behind his tricks. By taking the course you realize that there is always the possibility to take refuge in Allah (SWT), there is no more reason to despair.

Alia Guilleron (Psychology of Shaytan)
Switzerland

I highly, highly recommend this course! Not only is it very insightful, but it helps you build a deep connection with the Quran and start to view the Quran as the living miracle that it is. Subhanallah, it allowed me to look at the verses it a way that I didn't before. It truly is an amazing course that will definitely motivate you to continue your Quran journey InshAllah!

Leyla Mourad (Quranic Gems)
California, USA

Absolutely loved this course and how well it was organized. The mini sections were so well organized and easy to fit into any schedule, and so packed with information (nothing mini about the content!). Nazmina’s explanation is so clear and easy to follow along Mashallah!

Umme-abeeha Karim (Quranic Gems)
Minesotta, USA

The Brain Bites workshop I recently attended was very enjoyable and fun. The way Farah Aunty conducted it made it very understandable and interesting, especially as she made it interactive. What I found even more fascinating was how she linked it all to Qur’anic verses – it made me realise how much Allah talks about space in the Qur’an before modern science had even made these discoveries. I would definitely recommend it to others who want to learn more about the universe we live in.

Jannah Virjee (Astronomy in Islam)
Watford, UK

I live in the Netherlands and my English is average. I do not speak Arabic but I have been reading the Quran in Arabic for almost 3 years now. This amazing course was very beautiful, I learned many new things about the Beautiful Quran.

Swita Rassuli (Quranic Gems)
Netherlands

Thank you so much for an amazing astronomy course. My children enjoyed every session and couldn’t wait to share with us the fascinating facts which they had learnt. The links to Allah’s words in the Quran were what set this apart from any other astronomy course. My children are very keen to join the astronomy club if there is space!

Safia (Astronomy in Islam)
London, UK

This course is what made me fall in love with the Quran. Even though the lessons taught in this course scratched only the surface of how absolutely beautiful the Quran is, I couldn't help but gasp in shock or sigh in amazement when I realized why Allah formatted a specific ayah as such or why He used three different words for the same idea. I already signed up for another one of Sister Nazmina's Arabiq Online courses! She is such a splendid teacher and I pray that Allah gives her the best in this world and the next.
