"I promise you that your life will change and you will find the answers you are seeking to life’s biggest challenges!"
The Summer Immersion program could not have come at a better time. I was going through a lot of difficulties and Allah s.w.t allowed me to attend this class. Alhamdullilah! From Shaykh Masmari’s meaning behind trials, Mufti Abdul Wahab and Mufti Abdurehman’s gems, Shaykh Abdul Aziz’s real life experiences and advice which really hit home for alot of us to Mufti Asim and Shaykh Abdullah’s classes which offered so much soul food. If you attend this class with the right intention and open heart and mind, I promise you that your life will change and you will find the answers you are seeking to life’s biggest challenges! JazakAllah Khair Miftaah for this transformational and soul riveting class.

The summer immersion program is such a refreshing part of my summer. It’s a break from the rest of the world. The subject matters are so interesting. I’ve been particularly enjoying the Prophetic Parables class. The class is engaged and the instructors make it so engaging and practical.
