Mercy to the Worlds (£70 incl. VAT)
Seerah 101
By Sheikh Yasir Qadhi
The Great Hall, Aston University, Aston Triangle, Birmingham, B4 7ET.
Sat 1st - Sun 2nd Dec 2007 - 8.30am - 7.00pm both days (Lunch break 12:30PM - 2:30PM)

Mercy to the Worlds

"Verily, there has come unto you a Messenger from amongst yourselves. It grieves him that you should receive any difficulty. He is anxious over you, for the believers full of compassion, kindness, and mercy." [At-Tawbah:128]

AlHasan alBasri said: I heard once that a tree cried from missing the Prophet. Are not then, a people who say that they love the Prophet, more worthy of crying from missing him?

And Anas radiallahu anhu used to say: "Wallahi I see the Prophet in my dreams every night... Except the odd nights." Then he would fall down crying begging Allah to allow him to see his beloved even on the odd nights.

Welcome to the first in the series of indept courses on the life of the greatest man that ever lived. Join us as we relive the moments of his life in Makkah from before prophethood to after it and share with our beloved Prophet his times of joy and sorrow. The Mercy to the Worlds is unique in its teaching of Seerah, because it emphasises:

* Authenticity to the highest degree from the works of some of the best muhaqiqeen such as Ibn Hajr rahimahullah.
* Encourages passionate discourse about the effect of each of the major incidents of the Prophet's life and how we can use it as a springboard to giving dawah.
* Encourages critical analysis of the series of events and attempts to draw the maximum benefit from each.
* Attempts to paint a complete picture of the life of the Prophet from all facets.
* Is filled with the most amazing details and benefits gathered from the largest sources of seerah available.


"For me, the study of the seerah was a labour of love. I can't wait to share the joy of studying seerah with my friends." [Quote from a student of Knowledge]

"Its like walking with the Prophet, talking to the Prophet, crying with him, laughing with him. I have never experienced a joy greater than studying about my beloved Prophet." [Quote from a student of Knowledge]

The believers will meet their Prophet at the pond of alKauthar on the plains of resurrection - is it not then appropriate that you study about him at alKauthar as well?

Who is this course for?

* Every Muslim who dearly loves his/her Prophet and wants to learn about his seerah in greater detail
* For every daee who wishes to use the seerah as a platform for dawah
* For the student of the life of the Prophet who wishes to understand the most authentic information available regarding him.
* For every Muslim teacher in Islamic schools who wishes to raise his/her students with the knowledge of the seerah.

What will you come out with at the end of the course?

* A binder complete with notes on the details of the Seerah.
* Hundreds of examples, points of benefit from each incident and how to use it as a platform for dawah.
* Tremendous boost to your emaan.
* Clarification of doubts about the life of the Prophet.
* Motivation to start applying your knowledge of seerah in dawah.

Why Enrol?

Knowledge is power. It increases when you give it. It is needed by Kings and beggars alike. It eases the path to paradise. We are constantly reminded in the Qur’an and Sunnah of the importance of gaining Islamic knowledge so as to apply it in our lives. At AlKauthar Institute we have attempted to make this path as easy as possible for a Muslim, but in the end it will require your own individual commitment, dedication and hardwork to gain the pleasure of Allah.​

Even Manchester is nearer to me than Birmingham or London...

For now, this course is only happening in B'ham, but other classes are coming soon to London and Manchester.

I've been to a few of the courses, they are brilliant! You will never regret going, inshaallah. They are just SOO good!

By the way, just curious, how long a drive are the three cities from each other?

Hmm... WHen something like Soul reflections or Ibn Al Qayyim lecture thing or Mercy to the Worlds comes to Manchester, will go then Inshaa Allaah...
 
whos Ustadh Surkhil Shareef?

:sl:

He is apparently pretty well known in the UK...

After having left studying for an MSc in Astrophysics in 1987, Surkheel Sharif (better known as Abu Aaliyah) has been teaching, lecturing and presenting seminars on Islam to Muslim and non-Muslim audiences for the last two decades. He is a regular speaker on the U.K. university circuit and has acted as khatib and imam for various mosques and Islamic centres. Presently he is a khatib at the Eman Foundation in East London.

As a student of Islam's sacred sciences, he has learnt and kept constant contact with various scholars for the past two decades; by Allah's blessing he has managed to study certain primers and texts on theology and law with some of them. These shaykhs include: Shaykh Suhaib Hasan, Shaykh 'Abdullah al-Farsi, Shaykh Abdur-Rahman al-Luwayhiq and Shaykh Haytham al-Haddad. Additionally, a number of scholars have granted him a recommendation to teach. Currently he is completing his MA in Islamic Studies at Birkbeck College, University of London, and hopes to pursue a Phd in a similar field.

He has a number of translations to his name; books translated from Arabic into English. These include: Declaration of Faith; Tenets of Faith; Understanding the Etiquettes of Differing; and Imam al-Sa'di's primer on Islamic spirituality, The Exquisite Pearl. Two books written by him are in the pipeline for publication (God willing). The first is on taqlid and madhhabs. The second is based on the writings of Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali, and is called Din Foundations.

He seldom accepts requests to travel and teach abroad (he says that there is more than enough for him to do in the U.K.). Nonetheless, he has visited and delivered lectures in Sri Lanka in 1996; a seminar in the U.S in 2000, and spoke at the Peace Conference, India, in 2004.

For a number of years he was a presenter for Radio Ramadan (operating out of East London) and has made a number of appearances on Islam Channel. He is also the Director of the Jawziyyah Institute where he has written many articles, translations and papers.

Being born and raised in London, this is where Abu Aaliyah resides with his wife and four children.​

:sl:

I hope you like his style! I listened to his lecture about globalisation and how it relates to Muslims. Was pretty interesting.
 
Man i wish I lived in the UK.I would probably have a chance to enroll, enjoy everyone who goes there.Thanx alot now I feel like crying.
Indeed knowledge is power.
 
:sl:

They also have classes in Australia and South Africa, in case you live there. If you live in the US (and Canada- I'm not sure), you can check out almaghrib, it is similar to Alkauthar and brilliant too!
 
Shaykh Yasir Qadhi is an absolutely amazing teacher, masha'Allah. Those of you attending are in for an amazing experience, and those of you missing out, well - it's too bad you can't make it. Shaykh Yasir's lectures are indeed lifechanging for many. He brings a clarity and clearmindedness to any discussion that is refreshingly well-thought out and scholarly, while not stepping over your head or losing your attention span. Check out this clip:
