Monday Hadith Class (taught in Arabic)
Shaykh Haytham Tamim teaches a selection of hadith in Arabic from Bulugh al Maram min Adillat al Ahkam by Ibn Hajar al Asqalani. Who was Ibn Hajar al Asqalani? Ibn Hajar was a medieval Islamic scholar whose contribution to the science of hadith is colossal. He wrote about 150 works on hadith, history, biography, tafseer, poetry, and Shafi'ite jurisprudence. What is Bulugh al Maram? This collection of over 1000 hadith contain the hadith from which legal rulings have been formed in the Shaf'i school, and more widely it is regarded as a seminal collection of hadith regardless of school of thought. Currently we are studying the chapter, Kitab al Jami in which the hadith focus on the etiquette of society and interaction, which form the basis of a kind and caring society. What will you study? Shaykh Haytham analyses the literal meaning of a hadith, and its spiritual implications, as well as its relevance to our lives. Deducing its key themes and concepts, he derives essential lessons for all Muslims. We are also studying the biographies of the narrators and the context of the hadith and how they link to our reality. We look at relevant rulings and etiquettes, highlighting the difference between the cultural and the Islamic practices. Friendly class followed by Q&A When is the class?

There were no signs of travel on him and we did not recognize him. He sat down in front of the Prophet and rested his knees by his knees and placed his hands on his thighs. The man said, “O Muhammad, tell me about Islam.” The Prophet said, “Islam is to testify there is no God but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, to establish prayer, to give charity, to fast the month of Ramadan, and to perform pilgrimage to the House if a way is possible.” The man said, “You have spoken truthfully.” We were surprised that he asked him and said he was truthful.
