Taste the fruits of a decade-long labor and decide whether you want to know more about the tree!
Upcoming Workshop:
Saturday, Sunday - Feb 22, 23
The demonstration sessions invite you to explore the outcome of a decade-long intellectual labor, offering a glimpse into the rich insights being cultivated at Al-Asmaa Institute. These sessions are designed to help you decide whether you wish to delve deeper into our interdisciplinary relational approach to the Beautiful Names. Through an engaging overview, you will experience how the worlds come together under their loving embrace. By the end of this session, you will have a clear understanding of our vision and whether this journey aligns with your aspirations.
Integrity is the foundation of trust and respect in all activities. What we emphasize the most in this policy is confidentiality. Our courses are and will continue to be fruits of arduous labor—and for them to be made freely accessible to the public without the instructor’s express permission will be considered a lack of respect for his efforts and a breach of his trust.
The other two important factors in the integrity policy are asking good questions combined with honest feedback. While money is our short-term capital, these students are our medium and long-term capital. By way of analogy, they are both the compass and the anchor that help us navigate through the uncharted seas of the future in a way that maximizes the benefit we offer to them and the benefit they gain from us as Allah permits.
“Ar-Rahman Ar-Raheem” is the most frequently uttered phrase in the Muslim community. In the Arabic language, they are etymologically related to the mother’s womb. In this course, we use some simple scientific facts about the mother’s womb to enrich our current understanding, which is based only on Arabic Grammar (Sarf & Nahw) and traditionally established exegetical accounts of the Holy Qur’an (Tafseer). As a result, we obtain a unique (albeit preliminary) understanding of these two Names, their relationship to each other, and our existential relationship to them in a way that is nowhere to be seen in modern-day religious scholarship.

I am a person who constantly loves to wonder about the beauty of Allah and His creation, and so learning more about Him through His Names, especially with the practical examples that were provided through the session opened up a totally new insightful perspective I didn’t see before! I am truly grateful for attending and definitely looking forward for more sessions in the future inshaAllah!

The session was a great introduction to Al-Asmaa Institute. We have heard and studied the Names ‘Al-Rahman’ and ‘Al-Raheem’ many times in our homes and schools. However, this workshop introduced a fresh aspect of these Names that has been hidden from our eyes. This has sparked my curiosity to seek out more Names of Allah in the same way and find out the valuable lessons in them. I will surely attend further sessions and will encourage my friends to attend these lectures, too.

The workshop delivered more than I was expecting it to. The perspectives offered in just a short amount of time opened me up to a completely new paradigm of studying religion which seemed to resemble the traditional curricula we have lost in time, especially in the aesthetics.
