Online Class Recording # 1: Avoiding the Sins of the Limbs

Welcome to our first class recording! We have switched from straight podcasting to teaching the text, The Beginning of Guidance, on the online Zoom format. These classes are available to all listeners who would like to attend in person on Sundays, or if you are unable, then you can still study the book via those recordings uploaded here. For class registration details, the time of the class in your location and other enquiries, please contact via Instagram @miskwomen, join our FB private group MISK Women Halaqa, or contact via email: miskwomen@gmail.com. There is also a private Telegram channel that you can join after receiving the link.

This class summarises the first part of the book about the seeker of knowledge, and mentions the topics previously covered in the podcast episodes.

Then we begin Part 2 of the book - Avoiding the sins of the limbs. We covered the introduction to that section, the Quranic ayats and Hadith in it and what Imam al-Jawi says in his commentary. The seven body parts that will be discussed in detail in Part 2 were mentioned, and the next class begins with avoiding the sins of the eyes, in sha Allah.

For any enquiries or comments, please don't hesitate to contact us on miskwomen@gmail.com
