More details
Think of what would it be like to look inside the minds of the ummah’s greatest ‘ulema. Imagine the benefit of getting an ‘insider’s view’ of the way they thought, learned, and lived.
Learn from the lives of the very people who attained ultimate success –in the Dunya and the Akhirah.
Who were these great people?
They were the men and women who carried the standard of Islam.
Those who sought to enliven the vision of La illaha illa Allah through the power of their words and the beauty of their actions.
Those who refused to rest, in the hope of benefiting others - others, like you and I, who thousands of years after their passing continue to benefit from the fruits of their labour.
They are the ‘Ulema of Islaam.
“The virtue of the scholar to a worshipper is similar to the virtue of the moon when it is full to the rest of the stars”
- The sharpest minds.
- The best manners.
- The highest degree of Discipline.
They are the likes of:
- Ataa ibn Abi Rabaah, the famous student of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbass
- Al-Layth ibn Sa’ad, the Tabi’ee and Imam of Eygpt
- Fatimah bint Abdul Maalik
- Umm ud-Dardaa’, the sahabiyaat and scholar of Damascus
- The Scholar, Abdul Hameed ath-Thani
- Abdullah ibn Mubarak, the illustrious student of Sahabah
- ….and many more!

Where are the Women Scholars?
“History records few scholarly enterprises in which women have played an important and active role side by side with men. Islam produced a large number of outstanding female scholars, on whose testimony and sound judgment much of the edifice of Islam depends.”
- Layla bint ‘Abd Allah [known as Ash-Shifaa] was requested by the Prophet sal Allahu alayhi wa sallan to teach women the Qur’aan
- Nafisa bint al-Hasan taught hadeeth to Imam ash-Shafi’ee.
- Umm ud-Dardaa’ was a sahabiyyat, scholar and teacher of Damascus
- Ibn Hajar al-Askhalani states that he studied with 53 women.
Where are the women scholars today? Recapture the Scholarship of women in Islam by learning first-hand the ways in which Muslim women acquired knowledge of Islaam in the past.
“Whatever knowledge I have is due to my Wife”
- Ibn Hajar al-Askhalani
Relive the stories of their courage in calling others to Allah. Relive their struggles in the path to Knowledge. Comprehend the depth of their submission to Allah – for Allah aza wa jall tells us:
It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear Allah.
Verily, Allah is All-Mighty, Oft-Forgiving.
- You will get a closer look into the lives of some of the most important figures in the history of Islaam – what makes the ‘ulema so important? Learn about everything from their personal relationships with their wives and families, to the companions they chose as friends. Discover the beauty of their life’s stories.
- You will understand the key values that shaped the lives of the past scholars. What were the motivators that led to their success? This is your chance to find out.
- You will have access to classical historical works that are not available in the English language.
- You will be able to model yourself after the greatest people of this ummah and tread the path of the Righteous people who came before us.
- You will come away with a whole new respect for people of knowledge!
“This course will transform more then 5 AlMaghrib seminars into one practical applicational guide”.
– Shaykh Waleed Basyouni.
3 Reasons you CANNOT afford to miss this seminar:
- The Best Role Models. What better example to follow than those who dedicated their lives to living and calling to the worship of Allah?
- The Best Inheritance. The Prophet sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam said: “The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets. Verily the Prophets did not leave behind dirhams and dinars, rather they left behind knowledge. Thus whoever takes it, takes it as a bountiful share.”
- Unparalleled Islamic knowledge, in ENGLISH! ThisAlMaghrib seminar is the result of extensive research and compilation of many Islaamic texts. Topics such as this are not available translated into English, and even native Arabic speakers will attest that a topic of this relevance is hard to come by. Show your gratitude to Allah by taking advantage of this opportunity!

Salaam O alikum - Akhi Imtiaz I’ve similar question that being asked above regarding this event- as the promoting video put it like this that it is coming to city near us , so that’s mean, the event would be held at various cities of different states? Like for example if someone is living in queens, Ny doesn’t have to go to Manhattan, NY to attend the event or vice verse for other cities..or this event would be like state level and be held at per state????
Jazkakomuallah khair
Waslaam
Walikum Salaam,
Each class comes to a Qabeelah once, so for instance, if you live in NYC your Qabeelah is Tayybah ..
if you lived in Toronto it would be Qabeelah Majd
For more information on Qabeelahs and class check AlMaghrib.org
InshaAllah I hope that answers your questions !
I don’t know if I understand it correctly brother -this would be my first time attending these kind of event…. so you are telling me look for qabeelah tayybah and get information regarding that - as when they are coming to my town…brother i’m little naive about this and little confuse
Please send an email to Ameer.Tayybah@almaghrib.org
