Light upon light

Nur 'Ala Nur

Illuminating the hearts of believers with ‘ilm at their fingertips.

نُّورٌ عَلَىٰ نُورٍۢ ۗ يَهْدِى ٱللَّهُ لِنُورِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَيَضْرِبُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْأَمْثَـٰلَ لِلنَّاسِ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَلِيمٌۭ

Light upon light! Allah guides whoever He wills to His light. And Allah sets forth parables for humanity. For Allah has perfect knowledge of all things.— Surah An-Nur 24:35

Knowledge is what is contained in the heart, not in the pages of books.

Meet the Teacher

A short introduction

A student of Islamic Creed (al-‘Aqidah), Shafi’i Jurisprudence (Fiqh), Prophet Narrations (al-Hadith) and the Arabic language, seeking to benefit others as I have been benefited. My educational approach is rooted in the Hadith of our Master Jibril (عليه السلام), which outlines the three divisions of our religion: Islam (Religious Practice), Iman (Belief), and Ihsan (Spiritual Purification). Mastery of these three essential sciences is mastery of the religion itself.
