About this episode

In this episode of our lecture series on the life of Prophet Muhammad (saw), we delve into the profound moment at Cave Hira—when, at the age of 40, he encountered the angel Gabriel, and the first verses of the Quran were revealed. We explore this event through the lens of Rudolph Otto’s concept of religious experience, discussing what it means to encounter the divine. What did the Prophet (saw) feel in that moment? How do we understand the awe, fear, and overwhelming presence of the sacred? Join me as we reflect on this pivotal experience and its significance.
