By Umm Zakiyyah
Juz’ 2 of the Qur’an comprises the chapter of al-Baqarah (The Cow) verses 142 to 252. In this juz’, Allah establishes rules and regulations and sets out warnings to the believers about idolatry. Throughout this section of the Qur’an, we are reminded to overcome the nafs and seek only Allah in our hearts. It is in this spirit that Umm Zakiyyah reflects.
Umm Zakiyyah (@uzauthor) is the internationally acclaimed, award-winning author of the If I Should Speak trilogy and Reverencing the Wombs that Broke you.
