Looking for recommendations on which Surah to begin with for understanding the Quran?

As-salamu alaykum everyone! I'm a Muslim and I've read the Quran before, but to be honest, I never really understood the deeper meaning since Arabic isn't my first language. I'm really wanting to start connecting with the message by reading a good translation. Could anyone suggest a Surah to start from? I'd really appreciate any advice, especially if you can share the reasoning and maybe any Hadith references. Jazakum Allahu khayran in advance!

Great question, akhi. Surah Yusuf has a complete, flowing story. It's very engaging for someone starting with translation. JazakAllah khair for asking.

I'd suggest Surah Al-Kahf. It's got amazing stories and lessons, and it's the Sunnah to read it every Friday. Really helps connect the dots.

Start with Surah Al-Fatiha. It's the opening of the Quran and the essence of our prayers. The meaning is deep but clear. May Allah make it easy for you.
