We will explore 99 of the Infinite Names which have been revealed to us through the Qur’an and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. We will learn how to connect deeper to the Divine through these Names in our everyday life and through our everyday dealings using a translation of the work of Imam Jalaluddin As-Suyuti “The Excellent Urgency: in the Explanation of the Beautiful Names of Allah Jalla Jalaluhu”.
Take this course to deepen your spiritual connection and understanding of the Almighty, and to bring this connection and profound contemplation into your daily life. Join us to foster within yourself a deeper love and appreciation for Allah Most High and Glorious.
Sundays from 12 pm to 1:30pm EDT
Teacher: Ustadh Ammar
This course offers a selected study from the lives of the Sahaba (Companions) of the Prophet, Peace and Blessings be upon him, and the lessons therein. The Sahaba were the closest people to Allah after the Prophets, so we can glean countless wisdoms and motivation from their lives. The Prophet, peace be upon him, told us that we can follow any of the Sahaba, as they are like the stars in the sky that help us navigate our lives.
Students will learn to appreciate their individual journeys and their importance within the greater Prophetic period. With this, there will be a focus on crucial lessons that we learn of service, asceticism, scholarship, perseverance, forbearance, and more. The Sahaba that will be covered include: Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah, Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Ummi Maktoon, Sayyidah Fatima al-Zahra, Sayyiduna Suhaib al Rumi, Sayyiduna Abdul Rahman ibn Awf, Sayyiduna Hudhayfa bin Al-Yaman, and Sayyiduna Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas.
Please note that on October 27 the timing will be 1 pm to 2:30 pm EDT due to daylight savings ending a week earlier in the UK where the teacher resides.
