Welcome to Al-Majalis Ash-Sharaniya & Sharh Al-Asmaa Al-Husna by sheikh Marwan el-Kateb.

The course will be given in Arabic and will be split up into 4 classes a week with a total of 12 classes over 3 weeks. The course may extend into 4 weeks.


The books* chosen by Sheikh Marwan al-Kateb, to be read in the course:


1. The Book of Al-Fayoud Al-Ahmadiyya, the abbreviation of the Muhammadan covenants, is by Sheikh Abdul Rahman al-Shaar, in which he shortened the Book of Muhammadan Covenants by Imam Al-Sha'rani (from which we will read a covenant in every lesson).

2. Faraed al-Qalaid and its abbreviation, both by Imam Abdul Wahab al-Sha'rani, in which he discusses Sunni creed based on the methodology of Sheikh Al-Akbar ibn Arabi (we will start with the abbreviation and then read from the original book after the abbreviation is finished).

3. The book explaining the Al-asmaa Al-Hosna by Sheikh Sadr al-Din al-Qaunwi (a theoretical explanation).

4. A book explaining the meanings of Al-Asmaa Al-Hosna by ibn Arabi (a practical explanation).

5. The Book Haqaiq Al-Asmaa Al-Hosna by Sheikh Abdul Baki Miftah (to find out the facts of the science of names of the great masters).

6. The Book Al-Tabaqaat Al-Kubra by Imam Al-Sha'rani (to learn about the translations of the Saints, from which we will read one translation in each lesson as determined by the Sheikh).


The live classes can only be attended by male students. Female students can watch the recorded lectures and submit their questions in writing. We are working on offering track courses for both male and female attendants.


*Students are required to purchase these books before start of class.
