Course Summary
Surah Hujurat instructs the believers to "find their place" before God and His Messenger. Surah Hujurat is a moral code and has important instructions for our development as upright humans and believers: in a community of faith, each person deserves respect; quarrels are unseemly and should be composed; manners spring from morals and mutual respect and confidence are a duty and privilege in Islam. The Surah emphasizes that humanity is all brethren in the Adamic lineage and that true honor and status is found with God in piety.
This day-long course is designed to provide you with the "morals of a Muslim," as highlighted in this Surah. We will discuss our proper interaction with Allah (SWT), His Prophet (SAW) and each other, relying on classic Islamic works while keeping an eye on the modern world we find ourselves in today.
Topics discussed will include:
Finding your standing before God
Learning to have etiquette towards our faith
Binding ties between people
Building a family of faith
Walking gently before others
Maintaining a good opinion
Start moving from the "edge" to the "center"
At the Conclusion of this Course You will:
- Know the background and reasons for revelation of each Ayat of this Surah
- Become more familiar with Arabic by understanding the vocabulary, sentence structure and grammatical techniques employed in each verse
- Have a deep understanding of the overall moral framework that is highlighted in this Surah
- Understand the associated hadith and commentary on this Surah
- Gain perspective on how this Surah's interpretation has varied over time
- Learn from the wisdom of each other via interactive and informed questions and answers
This course will utilize classical writings and books of knowledge to shed light on this most important topic and writing materials and supplemental notes will be provided.
Join us for a day of fellowship, reflection and immersion in God's Word.
