In April 2007, Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi, may Allah preserve him, delivered a four-day intensive course in Birmingham, UK, reading from al-Shama’il al-Muhammadiyyah, the well-known collection of Prophetic narrations describing the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. By the grace of Allah most High, the Arabic text was taught in its entirety, accompanied by English translation and commentary. The event had an unprecedented attendance, as thousands of students gathered for a spiritual journey led by one of the grandsons and heirs of the Prophet.
Sacred Knowledge is pleased to announce an online course of al-Shama’il, consisting of video selections from the programme in 2007. All the video clips will be available free of charge to view and no registration is required. We hope to upload 20 minute video clips every 2 weeks (subject to change). The Arabic reading of the text has been omitted.

We are excited to announce our new curriculum!
The curriculum will be fully launched this Fall. In the meantime, take a look at the following preview. And please note that you don’t need to wait until Fall to get started—courses that you take this Summer (or have taken previously) will all count towards the programs you are interested in participating in.
Based on our heritage and legacy—the Muslim scholarly tradition—our curriculum represents centuries of scholarship, expertise, rigor, and intelligence. It takes students with no knowledge of the religious sciences or Arabic and plugs them directly into this tradition, and students can either just learn the personally obligatory basics or continue on to study texts in their original Arabic.
Our curriculum was developed under the review and approval of several institutions and scholars in the Muslim World, including the Grand Mufti of Jordan Shaykh Nuh Ali Salman, WISE International Institute in Jordan, Mahd al-Fath in Syria, and Al-Ahqaf University in Yemen.

Make a regular practice of the Miswaak, for verily, it is healthy for the mouth and it is a Pleasure for the Creator (i.e. Allah is pleased with the Muslim who uses the Miswaak)’.(BUKHARI)
THE MISWAAK
Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) laid great stress on the use of the Miswaak (a tree-twig used for cleansing the teeth). One of the Sunnats of Wudhu is to use a Miswaak. Wherever a Miswaak is available and is not used, the full beauty and complete Sawaab of the Wudhu is not realised. There are numerous benefits and advantages in using a Miswaak.HISTORY OF THE MISWAAK
The Miswaak, a tree-twig, was in use for brushing and cleansing the teeth long before the advent of our Holy Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). In fact the records of our Nabi Muhummad’s (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) Ahadith indicate that the Miswaak was the “Sunnah” or practice of all the Ambiyaa (Prophets of Allah)—Peace be upon them.

In the last Live Session for Living Islam Shaykh Faraz narrated the following :
One of the duas that the Prophet [Allah bless him and give him peace] taught Sayidina Mu`adh ibn Jabal [may Allah be well pleased with him] was, “O Mu`adh by Allah I love you and I counsel you O Mu`adh do not leave saying after each prayer `O Allah assist me in remembering you and to be thankful to you and to worship you most beautifully’ “.
[This summarizes the deen]
