Course Overview
This course is based on the famous book Adab al mufrad compiled by Imam Bukhari. The course provides a vivid insight into the moral conduct of the early Muslims in a society led by the perfect character of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. We will focus on the chapters related to honouring parents (كتاب الْوَالِدَيْنِ) and respecting elders (كتاب الأكَابِرِ).
The Prophet’s words are as relevant today as they were 1400 years ago. This unique collection of Ahadith is one of the earliest and most authentic works on Islamic etiquette and the Islamic way of living in a society. This course is a practical and inspiring guide to fulfil the high need for guidance on morality and spirituality for Muslims living in a contemporary, secular society, where the line between right and wrong is increasingly clouded.
This course is an essential foundation of Islamic morality and is suitable for all adult students. “Al-Adab Al-Mufrad” is an absolutely essential addition to every Muslim’s life.
