Instructor: Imam Kebba Sallah
The generation that followed the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ faced the extraordinary responsibility of preserving his teachings, leading the Muslim community, and navigating new challenges after his passing.
This 12-week course introduces students to the lives and legacies of the Four Rightly Guided Caliphs: Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, Umar ibn al-Khattab, Uthman ibn Affan, and Ali ibn Abi Talib, may Allah be pleased with them all.
Through their lives, students will encounter different models of leadership, sacrifice, courage, scholarship, service, and devotion to Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. The course will provide an opportunity to better understand this formative period of Islamic history while reflecting on the enduring lessons these remarkable Companions offer Muslims today.
Location: ADAMS Sully Schedule: Fridays, after Maghrib Start Date: September 18, 2026 End Date: December 4, 2026 Duration: 12 weeks Audience: Open to all adults
Instructor: Imam Hicham Hall
The heart is at the center of our relationship with Allah. When it is sound, faith, worship, character, and relationships flourish; when it becomes afflicted by spiritual disease, every dimension of our lives can be affected.
Drawing from Purification of the Heart, based on the classical poem of Imam al-Mawlud, this course examines the spiritual diseases that afflict the human heart, including pride, envy, ostentation, greed, heedlessness, anger, and other inner maladies.
Imam Hicham Hall will guide students in learning how to recognize these diseases within themselves, understand their spiritual consequences, and study the remedies prescribed through the Qur’an, Sunnah, and Islamic tradition of tazkiyah.
More than a study of abstract concepts, this course is an invitation to sincere self-examination: to better understand the state of our hearts and undertake the lifelong work of purifying them as we seek greater sincerity, sound character, and closeness to Allah.

Inviting to the Prophet’s Way
Friday, January 2, 2025 | After isha (prayer at 8 pm)
ADAMS Sterling
Join us for a special evening with guest speaker Ustadh Ubaydullah Evans for a program focused on the timeless approach of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ to inviting others to Islam.
This session will explore how the Prophet presented Islam through his character, conduct, and story—and what lessons can be drawn from his methodology of da‘wah in today’s context. The talk will emphasize practical, accessible ways of sharing Islam that resonate meaningfully with people in our time.
The program will feature a structured lecture with clear, tangible examples, followed by a moderated Q&A with the community.
About the Speaker
Ustadh Ubaydullah Evans is ALIM’s first Scholar-in-Residence. He embraced Islam in high school and went on to study foundational Islamic sciences under local scholars before continuing his studies at the Institute of Islamic Education (Chicago), in Tarim, Yemen, and at Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt—where he became the first African American to graduate from its Shari‘a program. He also teaches with the Ta’leef Collective and the Inner-City Muslim Action Network (IMAN).
Please join us for our monthly UmmaTea session, open to the community, hosted by ADAMS Young Adults in partnership with ADAMS Qurtuba and Qahwa Cafe!
All of us have been touched by loss, whether the passing of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, or struggling to support someone else who is grieving. At the final UmmaTea session of 2025, we invite the whole community for a timeless and universal conversation about how the Quran can be a healing and a salve for our hearts when afflicted with pain, especially grief after loss.
As Allah SWT says in Surah Isra, “And We send down of the Qur’an that which is a healing and a mercy for the believers” (17:82). How can we connect our hearts to the Quran and allow the Everlasting Word of Allah guide us through life’s transitions, providing us with hope and grounding as we begin a new year?
Join Imam Magid as we think and learn together to answer these questions. We know this is a holiday weekend, many students and family members are in town. Please invite anyone you wish to join us for warm tea and winter themed snacks in communiTea!
Please come with a notebook, a pen, and your own water bottle. Tea and snacks will be served as usual. Please arrive on time— we will open the doors at 7:45PM for tea time and then begin the main program after promptly after Isha, insha’Allah.
We welcome all members of our community over 21 to attend this event! As we provide free tea and snacks, we ask that if you are able, to please purchase a ticket and/or gift a donation to allow us to keep this event free and accessible to ADAMS Young Adults and Young Professionals! May Allah SWT reward you all and may He continue to protect and bless our community.
Join us for a safe and compassionate space to connect, share, and support one another through the journey of living with chronic illness.
