The Rawha takes place every Tuesday. During the Rawha, Shaykh Yahya Rhodus will be covering the Hikam (Aphorisms) of Imam Ibn 'Ata'illah al-Iskandari.
📅 Date: Tuesdays
⏱️ Time: 7:00 PM
📍Location: Al-Maqasid (Ribat)
We are excited to announce Al-Maqasid's new weekly ‘Aqida class. This class explores intermediate Islamic beliefs through a close study of Imam Laqqani’s Jawhara al-Tawhid — a poem that covers mainstream Islamic beliefs about Allah Most High, His Messengers (peace be upon them), and the Hereafter.
Imam Laqqani’s poem has been broadly accepted by the scholarly community as a summary work representative of mainstream Islamic beliefs. In the hundreds of years that have passed since its authorship, this work has attracted dozens of commentaries and super-commentaries.
Class will be in-person as well as broadcast on Zoom for registered students.
The Quest for Virtuous Character is a concise yet profound treatise on the virtues of noble character, its defining signs, and the traits that contradict it. Drawing from the works of esteemed scholars such as Imam al-Ghazali, it offers thoughtful reflections on embodying praiseworthy qualities, deeply rooted in Islamic teachings.
This class will be taught in Sayida Hafsa’s native Arabic and translated by Sayyida Nejma Davis.
📅 Date: Saturday October 18th & 25th
⏱️ Time: 12:30 PM
📍Location: Online via Zoom
Heart to Heart is a monthly discussion over coffee and brunch. We seek to come together as a community and discuss topics related to Islamic spirituality.
Our discussions are centered around the book ‘The Path of the Worshipful Servants' by Imam al-Ghazali, which is a unique book that discusses the ways to overcome the obstacles on the spiritual path.

The series will cover the realities of Islam, Iman, and Ihsan, the six articles of faith, and how faith increases and decreases. It will also delve into the relationship between faith and the spirit, the seven states of the soul, and the roles of the mind and body on the path of inner growth.
