SATURDAY ISLAMIC STUDIES

These enlightening sessions, open to both men and women, Muslims and non-Muslims alike, commence with an introductory class on the 16th of December at 1 pm.

Our inaugural session will delve into the profound realms of Classical Arabic texts, unraveling the essence of Islam through a discourse on "What is Islam?" and the transcendent virtues of knowledge encapsulated in Fadl Al-Ilm.

Transitioning into the new year, our curriculum will expand to include specialized short courses. The class will be divided into two segments, with one devoted to exploring Ash-Shama'il Al-Muhammadiyah—a compilation of hadiths meticulously assembled by the 9th-century scholar al-Tirmidhi, offering profound insights into the intricate facets of the life of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. The second segment will revolve around Kitab al Jami', an assemblage of hadiths elucidating adaab (etiquettes). Join us in these sessions as we delve into the profound teachings of Islamic heritage.
