Online Course: Uncovered Pearls on the Lawful and Prohibited

ZamZam Academy, in conjunction with Ilm Essentials, is offering a new course taught by Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf

Nahlawi’s Uncovered Pearls on the Lawful and Prohibited (Kitab al-Hazar wa ‘l-Ibaha)

A Truly Beneficial and Inspiring Manual on Ethics, Character, and Creed

By Khalil ibn ‘Abd al-Qadir al-Shaybani al-Nahlawi (d. 1350/1931)

Imam Nahlawi’s fascinating work expounds upon the lawful and prohibited related to food, clothing, gender relations, earning a living, and general sins of the tongue, heart and limbs. However, far from being just a Fiqh text, it discusses the ethics and virtues related to these issues, providing a well-rounded understanding. Many of the questions you have about daily life will be answered through this manual; you will be exposed to those areas of Fiqh rarely looked at, but that govern our everyday actions; and most importantly, you will gain confidence in your every act of worship.

Most of the major fatwā collections contain a chapter on the lawful and prohibited (hazar wa ’l-ibaha). This manual draws from the major works and is supplemented with ample evidence from the Qur’an and hadith. It has been used as a scholarly reference for decades and is now being offered to you with commentary by Mufti Abdur-Rahman. The rulings in this work are relevant to all Muslims seeking an authoritative Sunni manual on the Halal and Haram in Islam.

Although the class will be taught from the original Arabic text, understanding of Arabic is not a requirement as a thorough translation will be provided. Students will be able to circumvent the extensive study of classical Arabic that would normally be required to approach a high-level text such as this. Inaccessible on your own, the commentary provided by Mufti Abdur-Rahman will open the subtleties of what is found in numerous larger works of jurisprudence.

Additionally, classes are to be LIVE each week, followed by a Q&A session in real-time. In the current climate of pre-recorded course offerings, the physical presence of a teacher is of the greatest value. Although we strongly encourage students to attend the live sessions, a recording of each class will be available for the duration of the course. Recordings will be available for online playback; they will not be available for download.

Classes are to begin on March 5 and will meet weekly for approximately 16–17 weeks until July 2, 2012. Prices have been kept comparable/lower to other courses of this nature, as to not make it prohibitive. If you have been contemplating a course such as this, register now!
