About

This site is dedicated to all those travelers on the road to religious knowledge. All those who, having tasted from its copious wells are satiated with nothing else in the world. It is mostly a collection of my personal notes, essays and reflections, in my own humble quest for knowledge over the years. Remember that knowledge is the inheritance of the Prophets and the only road to those lush gardens of Paradise we all dream of. As one of the scholars said:

العلم لِلرّحمن جلّ جلاله

و سواه في جهلاته يتجلجل

Knowledge is for the Beneficent One, Exalted be His Magnificence

While All Else Plunges Into the Depths of its Own Ignorance. 

I implore Allah to reward and bless my parents, grandparents and all of my many teachers, including the late Shaykh Al-Phaheem Jobe, Shaikh Abu Ishaq, Shaykh Ramadan El-Sabbagh, Shaykh Muhammad Jibreel, Shaykh Khidr Lawrence, Khalifah Abdul-Wali, Shaykh Walid Atif, Shaykh Yusuf Islahi, Shaykh Mokhtar Maghraoui, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef, Shaykh Yasser Birjas, Shaykh Abdul-Bari Yahya, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi, Ustadh Muhammad Faqih, Shaykh Waleed Bassyouni, Shaykh Waleed bin Idrees, Ustadh Abdul-Rahman Saleh, Abu Reehan and others.  

A humble student of Islam in enormous need of your prayers,

Dr Abu Zayd
