The Medinan period of the Prophetic Biography (Seerah) takes us into the life of the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) starting from the Great Migration (Hijrah) to Madina, including his 10-year residency there, until his passing and a brief account of what occurred in the 30 year reign of the Four Righteous Caliphs afterward.  Each lesson will look at a specific period of time, and the events and episodes which took place during those times, and what lessons a Muslim can take from those incidents to benefit their faith, practice and interaction with others.

From Radical Middle Way – Luton is one of the most diverse cities in the United Kingdom, with people coming from and representing diverse cultures, religions, languages and experiences. It is important to acknowledge and see the strength of this diversity. This special programme brought together two of contemporary Islam’s prominent scholars, Habib Umar bin Hafiz and Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad, providing a rare opportunity not only for young people but also all those who work in the frontlines of community relations to explore and get clarity on the faith’s teachings on a variety of challenging contemporary issues, particularly the challenges of living, working and making a better community together.

How can a Muslim woman in a world obsessed with appearance “look good” while “being good”? Can a Muslim woman wear makeup? Are hair extensions allowed? Is it true that a Muslim woman cannot wear perfume or remove facial hair? What is the Islamic ruling of arching eyebrows, tattoos, gapping one’s teeth, breast implants, tummy tucks, nose jobs, lip enlargements, and Botox? This one-time free session aims to offer insights and important considerations to ensure that Muslim women are observing the proper limits of the Islamic teachings. Come join us and participate in this important discussion.
