"With 17 years of experience teaching children aged 4 to 18 across over 20 schools in various countries, I have high standards when it comes to effective teaching. Mourad truly excels in this area. His teaching style is captivating, making you eager to learn more. I attended his Arabic lessons and found them incredibly engaging; I was never bored. If you're considering learning Arabic, I highly recommend Mourad's sessions. It's definitely worth it!"  —  Thourayyah, "Roots & Routes" Study Circles, Edinburgh

"Your inspiring session is, indeed, proof of your fine mind. I also loved the idea of Al Basmallah inspiring the person higher standards and pushing them to perfecting what they are about to engage in." —   Camilia,  "Roots & Routes" Study Circles, Edinburgh

"This was a kind of life changing experience. I took my shahada at the beginning of COVID pandemic and for those years have been trying to learn about Islam, but yesterday’s meeting was like a glue for all the pieces of the puzzle in my head. I could go on with specific details but the most significant, was the one where the Quran is Tafsir for Al Fatiha. After Fatiha was broken down, and then thinking about what I already know (still not much) about the Quran it suddenly makes so much sense. It's now both scary and exciting to even try to imagine how much more there is to be discovered. Thanks for the session, and hope to have such days happen again, no matter what interval as long as it does continue into the future." —  Miron,  "Roots & Routes" Study Circles, Edinburgh

I really appreciated the Arabic study circle. I think you were able to give insights and inspiration to everybody despite the different background and expectations. You and your wife are able to create a fertile ground to build community and at the same time you are spreading seeds of knowledge that represent the beauty of learning. I got that beauty yesterday. I loved the roots and connections between languages (English and Arabic) and Qur’an analysis. And the relationship with our everyday lives. Thank you 🙏 I can’t wait to come for the next circle. I will ask my other Muslim friends to join as well. —   Ariana, "Roots & Routes" Study Circles, Edinburgh

The session was alhamdulillah so educative and inspiring.  The presentation was interactive and engaging. I really admired the methodology.  We learnt a lot . May Allah bless the organizers and increase Brother Murad more know. As we also ask Allah for its continuity.  —   AbdulKarim, "Roots & Routes" Study Circles, Edinburgh 

I found the  (Roots & Routes) session both enjoyable and informative. I did indeed feel more present in my prayers afterwards. The perspective that all subsequent chapters of the Holy Qur'an can be thought of as tafsir on Al Fatiha had a huge impact on me.  — Paul, "Roots & Routes" Study Circles, Edinburgh
