Event Details

This weekly session will cover the Fiqh of Worship. Fiqh or Muslim devotional law is an essential element of Islamic practice, history, and scholastic tradition. Its application has permeated Muslim culture from past to present and the copious works written by a rich tradition of Islamic legal scholars have played a defining role in the course of the Muslim scholastic tradition, which was a foundational element of Islamic Civilization. For this reason, the study of fiqh is both enriching from an academic perspective which seeks to understand the basis from which
Islamic societies derived their understandings of the role of the divine in daily practice.

Sheikh Mahmoud Omar will enrich our knowledge in this interesting topic.
