Understanding and retaining Ethics for CFA Level I isn’t just about memorizing rules—it’s about internalizing principles. Surah Kahf reminds us, especially through the story of Dhul-Qarnayn, that power and knowledge come with responsibility. Ethics is the foundation of trust, and like the Quranic lessons, it’s what guides our decisions when no one is watching. Repetition, real-world examples, and reflection help make the concepts stick deeply.
