Ta’leef Collective Presents:
The Essentials of Islam
with Shaykh Abdul Kareem Yahyaa
The Essentials of Islam is a detailed study of the blessed text, ‘Al-Risalah al-Jami`ah,’ by al-Habib Ahmed bin Zayn al-Habashi (may Allah have mercy on him and spread his benefit), a foundational text that covers what is personally obligatory for a Muslim to know regarding matters of faith, purification, prayer, and some essential points related to our everyday life in accordance with the Shafi’i school.
It is hoped that by the end of the course, students will be able to understand the essentials of making their worship valid, sound and proper in accordance with the Prophetic sunnah.
About the author and text:
Habib Ahmed bin Zayn al-Habashi’s al-Risalah al-Jami`ah is a brief text that covers the essentials that every Muslim must know about faith and practice according to the Shafi’i school.
A descendant of the Prophet, Habib Ahmed al-Habashi was a spiritual guide of the Ba `Alawi path and a great scholar of the Sacred Sciences who studied with the greatest teachers of his time in Hadramawt, Yemen.
Al-Risalah al-Jami’ah has spread far and wide since it was written and is now studied around the world including in Yemen, Egypt, Kenya, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Hijaz.
