Al-Kharidah al-Bahiyyah [Starting: 03/08/2025]

The Al-Kharidah al-Bahiyyah course focuses on the foundational principles of Islamic creed ('Aqidah) as articulated by Imam Ahmad al-Dardir in his renowned poem, Al-Kharidah al-Bahiyyah. This classical text provides a concise yet comprehensive summary of essential theological doctrines according to the mainstream Sunni tradition (Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah), specifically within the Ash'ari school.

Students will gain a strong understanding of core Islamic beliefs, including the attributes of Allah, prophethood, divine destiny, and eschatology. The course will explore the historical context of the text, its relevance in modern discussions on theology, and how it addresses common misconceptions with clarity and precision.

At the end of the course, students may be eligible for an ijazah (certification) at the instructor’s discretion.

This course will meet weekly for hour-long sessions.
