ததப்புர்: ஒரு வசனம், எண்ணற்ற வழிகாட்டுதல்கள்

Four approaches to the Quran – Tilawah (recitation), tahfiz (memorisation), tafsir (exegesis), and tadabbur (reflection) – through the analogy of looking at the moon on a clear night. 

Tilawah is like looking at the moon with the bare eye. We gaze upon it, appreciate its beauty, and spend time admiring it.

Tahfiz, on the other hand, is like someone who knows the moon so well that he can recall its form and appearance without even looking up at the sky.

Tafsir is like studying the moon in greater depth through the guidance of experts. Through this, we understand why its shape changes and how its phases occur.

Tadabbur is the act of arriving at understanding through observation and reflection.
