    Summary

    Ahmed Abdel Monem is an Egyptian preacher who works as a lecturer at the Faculty of Medicine, Mansoura University, in Egypt. He is the general supervisor of the "It's the Quran" website and is known for his concern with the contemplation (tadabbur) of the Quran, with lectures, scholarly courses and varied activities in that field, as the Tafsir Center for Qur'anic Studies describes him in introducing its interview with him. 1

    No trusted source consulted by the museum publishes a birth date for him, so this entry carries none; a low-quality aggregator gives a date attributed to him which could not be verified against any trusted source, and it is not recorded.

    The "It's the Quran" project

    Ahmed Abdel Monem describes his project "It's the Quran", in his interview with the Tafsir Center, as a Qur'anic educational project whose aim is to break the barriers between people and the Quran so that their hearts may taste its splendour. 1 He says the project began as an individual, personal effort many years ago, as his own attempt to live with the Quran, and that its efforts were then gathered on the website (www.itsthequran.com), which rests on two axes: Qur'anic lessons and lectures, divided thematically into sections including the Quran councils and the educational and intellectual lessons; and educational and scholarly courses, among them the courses "Tadabbur of the Quran: Encouragement and Application", "The Guide to the Quran" and "An Essential Introduction to the Science of Tafsir", with Amr al-Sharqawi participating in the courses. 1 A team of content gatherers, designers, video editors and transcription and translation staff runs the site's activities and publishes its lessons, clips and exegetical and contemplative pauses on social-media pages. 1

    Among his central ideas in the interview is that the Quran offers a new "lens" through which the world is seen and a new lexicon of concepts, and that its effect in change is comprehensive and radical because it addresses the human being as a whole — illustrating this, from his own medical specialisation, with the example of scientists searching for the right medicine and its sensory receptor in the body. 1

    The "Huda li'l-Nas" programme

    On YouTube (@huda_lennas) Ahmed Abdel Monem presents the simplified exegesis series "Huda li'l-Nas" (Guidance for the People), which the channel's description calls "a programme simplifying the Quran to guide people — a simplified exegesis using easy terms everyone understands"; its numbered episodes had reached episode 61, on Surat al-Mursalat, when the channel was checked on 25 October 2026. 2 He also has the "Educational Evenings" (al-Amsiyat al-Tarbawiyya) series, published in playlists. 2

    Impact and audience

    Ahmed Abdel Monem's impact rests on the "It's the Quran" project with its educational and scholarly courses, and on the "Huda li'l-Nas" simplified-exegesis series, which reaches a wide audience through YouTube and the programme's audio and social platforms — dated platform figures that change constantly. 1 2
