$35/month per student
Course Outline
This course offers an in-depth overview of Islamic creed through the Matn of Imam Sanusi (Umm al-Barahin/The Foundational Proofs) with commentaries by Imam Sanusi, Imam Bajuri and Imam Dasuqi. Presented as a conference-style class, the Aqidah course focuses on both lectures and heavy engagement with students to answer the questions they are struggling with and to help them fully absorb and take ownership of their faith using sound intellectual judgment.
Extended Summary:
Having sound belief based on knowledge is critical and is every Muslim’s canonical responsibility. Without it, one can neither understand his own faith nor defend it intellectually. Allah says in the Quran: فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ: *Know* that there is no God but Allah. The requirement is for one to know or to seek that knowledge that will lead to salvation. This makes Islamic creed the most important knowledge one will ever acquire and apply.
Course Status: Advanced Aqidah For Adults
Course 2
Al-Hikam Al-Ata'iyya
The Wisdoms of Ibn 'Ata Allah
Live Lectures Every Saturday
(6:30 PM - 7:30 PM)
Course Recordings Included
$35/month per student
Course Outline
Based on the famous aphorisms of Ibn 'Ata Allah Iskandari, the Hikam Ata’iyya course explores the wisdom of how to apply Shariah to your life in the most excellent manner. Steeped in spiritual psychology and based entirely on Quran & Hadith, these wisdoms help the traveler to elevate his way of thinking and learn to respond to the world authentically by focusing on the ultimate truths of life.
Extended Summary:
Despite the advances of the modern world, humans are faced with increasing difficulties and lack the wisdom to navigate them appropriately. As such, the aphorisms are equally applicable to everyone’s life and condition today, not just the spiritual wayfarer’s. Students learn when it’s most appropriate to act and how to apply that action in the best way. Everything in these aphorisms is an expression of the Muhammadan conduct and wisdom in life, religious practice and spiritual condition and therefore, presents the surest path to success.

Course Outline
Course Status: Introductory Course For Ages 10 & Up.
This course provides an introduction to the tenets of belief required of each Muslim, young and old. Based on the well-known writings of Imam Abū Ja’far al-Ṭaḥāwī, Al Aqidah At-Tahawiyya offers a clear presentation of the creed of Ahl al-Sunnah wal Jamā’ah.
Presented as a conference-style class, the Youth Program focuses on building a foundation of Iman based on certainty. Students are encouraged to ask any questions that they may be struggling with in their lives and to use their intellects to establish the foundations of truth, so that they can approach any situation in life with certainty in God and His Messenger ﷺ.
Extended Summary:
Allah says in the Quran: فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ: "Know" that there is no God but Allah. The requirement for each Muslim is to know by using his intellect and seeking knowledge about God that will lead to success in this life, and more critically, in the Hereafter. When the essential foundations of knowledge are not established in a human being, then it becomes easy to be shaken by the circumstances of life and lose sight of one's opportunities to secure the Hereafter.
Islamic creed is the foremost and most valuable knowledge one will ever learn and apply in life. By it, one is able to view the world in the way it is meant to be viewed and establish a healthy balance both internally and externally.
