Dr. Shabir Ally discusses Quran 38:21-26, which recounts the story of Prophet David and two disputants who suddenly appear before him. The passage is often misunderstood as suggesting that David committed a serious moral wrongdoing, an interpretation influenced by the biblical account of David’s adultery with Bathsheba and the killing of her husband. Dr. Shabir clarifies that the Quranic story, by contrast, presents only a brief exchange in which David makes a quick judgment without hearing both

Dr. Shabir Ally explains that Quran 24:31, often cited in discussions about Muslim women’s dress, is best understood in its full context. The verse follows an instruction to men to lower their gaze and guard their modesty, showing that women were not meant to be hidden from public life but rather that both men and women share responsibility for decency. He says that the Arabic word zina refers not to women’s inherent beauty but to adornments (jewelry or decorations) that draw attention to certai

Dr. Shabir Ally examines the Quran 4:128, a verse often misunderstood in the classical Islamic tradition. Traditionally, scholars have interpreted this verse in isolation, suggesting that if a woman fears her husband is interested in divorcing her, she might make a deal to remain his wife in a superficial manner, potentially compensating him for doing so. While this arrangement might work for some women in specific circumstances, applying it universally seems inherently unfair to women. Dr. Shab

Dr. Shabir Ally looks at Quran 19:28 and responds to claims that the Quran mistakenly identifies Mary, the mother of Jesus, as the "sister of Aaron," seemingly confusing her with Miriam, the sister of Moses and Aaron who lived over a thousand years earlier. Dr. Shabir explains that this claim reflects an uncharitable reading of the Quran. He notes that the Quran demonstrates detailed and deliberate engagement with biblical narratives, often reinterpreting them to convey theological or moral poin
