Short Courses and Seminars Throughout the year, we offer a number of short courses and seminars covering important topics which are not directly addressed in the Essentials Program. Topics include the Fiqh of Food and Drink, Fiqh of Menstruation, History and Compilation of the Quran, Importance of Following Traditional Scholarship, Understanding Tasawwuf and others. The best way to stay up-to-date on upcoming seminars is to join our email list. How are the Classes taught? Online Teaching All classes are taught using the online learning tool WizIQ.com. Students can view the class materials through the online whiteboard and listen to the class lecture through their computer speakers or headphones. The chat feature is used for questions. Students will need a computer and high-speed internet access (2.5 Mbps+). Recordings will be available in case students miss a session. Why Ilm Essentials? Alhamdulillah, there are already a number of programs and classes available through which students can study the different Islamic Sciences. Every program has certain advantages and benefits and students should evaluate each against their circumstances. Below are a few salient features of the Ilm Essentials program: – Classes are taught live, without the reliance on pre-recorded sessions. – Traditional teaching methodology. – Focus on establishing a firm foundation in the core Islamic Sciences. – Emphasis on practical application of knowledge and using it as a means of moving closer to Allah Most High. – Moderate class pace, allowing students to master key concepts.

I gained the knowledge I needed to become not only a more knowledgeable Muslim, but a Muslim that implemented that knowledge in the practical world and at the same time, got a lot of questions answered. I truly believe in this program and can’t express enough gratitude for all that it’s done for me" (Abir). "Alhamdulillah, Ilm Essentials is a wonderful opportunity for today’s generation. Because classes are held on weekends, one is able to devote adequate time, while still attending school/working during the weekdays.I would definitely recommend this course. It is a golden opportunity one must avail and not let pass by" (Tasmiah). Not Able to Join This Year Please help spread the word to others.

ummtaalib Posted September 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Updated Essentials Program Registration is Open Over the past few weeks, we have been updating the Essentials Program to move it from a live course to pre-recorded lectures. Even though my preference is for live classes, each year attendance would wane as the course went on. By moving the format to pre-recorded lectures, students have more flexibility and can cater their learning to their personal schedules. It should also allow students from different times zones to benefit from the program.All of the details regarding the new format are available here on the Essentials Program page.The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said, "Seeking knowledge is incumbent upon every Muslim" and in another narration, "Whoever travels a path seeking sacred knowledge, Allah will place him on a path leading to Paradise. The angels lower their wings for the student of sacred knowledge, pleased with what he is doing" (Tirmidhi).Sacred knowledge is the inheritance left to us by the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) and one of the quickest ways to earn the pleasure of Allah Most High.
