Reminder of the Day
Say, O Prophet, If your parents and children and siblings and spouses and extended family and the wealth you have acquired and the trade you fear will decline and the homes you cherishif all these are more beloved to you than Allah and His Messenger and struggling in His Way, then wait until Allah brings about His Will. Allah does not guide the rebellious people.

MCF Welcomes Visiting Scholar
Shaykh Zahed Fettah
Shaykh Zahed Fettah, a Lecturer currently completing his Ph.D. in Islamic Studies from the UK, is set to visit MCF starting this Saturday, January 6th, insha'Allah! Over the course of a little more than a week, Shaykh Zahed will be our honored guest, leading various programs and engaging with the MCF Community. An upcoming schedule of events will be shared soon!
Shaykh Zahed holds an LLB Law degree from the University of Birmingham, a BA in Shariah Law from the European Institute of Human Sciences, and an MA in Islamic Studies from Newman University (Markfield Institute). His academic journey includes a dissertation exploring the role of weak Hadith in the Hanbali legal school and two years of specialization in Usul al-Ifta in the anafi legal school. His classical Islamic studies began in the UK and continued in Algeria, where he delved into Tafsir and Hadith at Dar al-Hadith in Oued Souf. Shaykh Zahed, on the verge of completing his Ph.D., holds multiple Ijazahs in various books of Aqidah, Hadith, Fiqh, and other Islamic sciences. We look forward to his enlightening presence and the insightful programs he will lead during his visit.
