This course offers a holistic introduction to the essential pillars of Islamic knowledge: belief, revelation, and Prophetic character. Students will study Aqeedah Tahawiyyah to establish a sound understanding of Sunni creed, explore the Ulum al-Qur’an to appreciate how the Qur’an was revealed and preserved, and immerse themselves in the Shama’il to develop love for the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ through his character and lifestyle. The course concludes with a detailed Tafseer of Surah al-Mulk, connecting belief and knowledge with spiritual reflection and practice. Together, these studies aim to nurture conviction, deepen connection to the Qur’an and Sunnah, and inspire a life guided by faith and knowledge.
