An Outstanding Islamic Learning Experience!​



قُل لَّوْ كَانَ الْبَحْرُ مِدَادًا لِّكَلِمَاتِ رَبِّي لَنَفِدَ الْبَحْرُ قَبْلَ أَن تَنفَدَ كَلِمَاتُ رَبِّي وَلَوْ جِئْنَا بِمِثْلِهِ مَدَدًا

“If the ocean were to be ink for (writing) the words of my Lord, the ocean would have been consumed before the words of my Lord are exhausted, even if we were to bring another (ocean) like it in addition.”
