ORIENTATION

This program is not merely a series of lectures on the life of the Prophet ﷺ. Most of what is gained will return to what you invest. We recommend the following to glean the greatest benefit from each session:

Layered Intentions – Pen your intentions in order to best orient yourself to receive the knowledge that will be conveyed in the book and in each session.
Lustration – Attend each class in a state of wuḍūʾ (ritual purity), for seeking knowledge is worship that radiates brighter when the soul is bathed in light.
Devotional Practices – Throughout the program and in the interim week between our sessions, commit to praying immediately as the time for each prayer enters, perform all your voluntary prayers, and recite Sūrat Yā Sīn by morning and Sūrat al-Mulk by evening. Fast that Monday and Thursday as well. Perform qiyām al-layl (night vigil) at least one of those nights. And read Sūrat al-Kahf Friday eve. These were among the consistent practices the Prophet ﷺ.
Ambience – To the extent possible, set an ambience that befits hosting the greatest story ever told. You are encouraged to share your pictures to encourage others to do the same using the hashtag mentioned above.
Personal Connection – Let us always remember that we are not merely studying history for its own sake, moreover, we are entering into his story ﷺ to guide our steps through the paths of our own lives.

DESCRIPTION

“Do they not reflect deeply on the Qur’an, or have hearts locked themselves out?” (Muḥammad 47:24). This seminar will cover various approaches to tadabbur, that divine invitation to contemplate the layered meanings. Every verse in the Book of Allah withholds seventy meanings according to ʿAbd Allāh b. ʿAbbās, yet there is a key to open every door of meaning, allowing locked hearts to, ultimately, mirror their own reflections on the Word of God.
