Study of Selected Excerpts from Ibn al-Qayyim’s Ighāthat al-Lahfān (“Relief for the Distressed from the Traps of Shayṭān”)
Weekly with Imam Kebba Sallah | ADAMS Sully | Tuesdays after Maghrib (time adjusts with prayer) | Starting October 21
This weekly circle is a guided study of selected passages from Imām Ibn al-Qayyim’s Ighāthat al-Lahfān min Maṣāyid al-Shayṭān—a classic on spiritual psychology and self-reform. Together we’ll explore how the Qur’an and Sunnah diagnose the states of the heart (sound, diseased, dead), expose the tactics of Shayṭān (from doubt and desire to distraction and excess), and chart practical remedies rooted in tawḥīd, dhikr, repentance, sincere worship, and disciplined character.
Building on the inner dimensions of Islam, the class emphasizes the inner Sunnah—aligning intentions, emotions, and habits with prophetic guidance. Each week we will read selected passages that provide reflection prompts, helping us connect insights to family life, work, and worship. The aim is not abstract theory but lived practice: learning these principles together and striving to apply them in daily interactions and personal growth.
Format: Reading from the text • Instructor explanation • Guided discussion • Practical reflections to take home
Who it’s for: Anyone seeking to defend themselves from Shayṭān’s traps, strengthen their heart, become a better Muslim, and draw closer to Allah
Schedule: Weekly, every Tuesday after Maghrib (time adjusts with prayer) • Starting October 21 • Ongoing (no end date)

Under the guidance of Sh. Cheikh Ahmed Tijane Diallo, this structured study of Risālah Ibn Abi Zayd al-Qayrawani (رسالة ابن أبي زيد القيرواني) will explore essential rulings and practices of Islam.

Join Sh. Cheikh Ahmed Tijane Diallo for a deep dive into the principles and methodology of Hadith studies. This class will cover Mustalah al-Hadith (مصطلح الحديث), exploring how scholars preserved and authenticated the sayings of the Prophet ﷺ. Perfect for students eager to understand the rigorous science that safeguards the Prophetic tradition.
Location: ADAMS Gainesville
Day: Tuesday
Time: After Maghrib (will adjust with prayer times)
Instructor: Imam Hicham Hall
Starting Date: October 14
Duration: Approximately 15–18 weeks (aiming to finish before Ramadan – may be modified as needed)
Course Description: Many Muslims have never formally studied the fiqh of Taharah (purification) and Salah (prayer), even though these are personal obligations (Fard ‘Ayn) for every practicing Muslim. This class is designed to fill that gap. Students will gain a solid understanding of the essential rulings, building confidence that their purification and prayer are ritually sound. By studying fiqh systematically, participants can avoid doubt, speculation, constant reliance on online rulings, or getting drawn into disputes over differences of opinion. This knowledge is indispensable for every practicing Muslim.
Beyond formal rules, prayer is ultimately about the heart. Even a legally valid prayer can fall short if it lacks presence, humility, and mindfulness. This class will also explore the inner dimensions of worship, drawing on Imam Ghazali’s teachings, to help students cultivate God-consciousness, reverence, and spiritual focus in every prayer.
Qurtuba Community Education: This class is part of our Foundations Curriculum, designed to build religious literacy in the community. The course is completely free, but registration is required. Your support and donations allow us to continue offering these programs.
Note on Madhhab: The class is based on Maliki fiqh, reflecting the instructor’s background. For students who have not previously studied a madhhab, the priority is to gain a solid foundation in one recognized Sunni school, rather than becoming concerned about which school to follow. We will strive to offer this course based on other madhāhib in the future.
