Imam al-Nawawi’s collection of 40 Hadiths is one of the most important collections of hadiths we have today. He compiled a total of 42 hadiths for this collection\, not 40. Allah (SWT) granted him blessing and success in his work so that he could make significant contributions to Islam before passing away at a relatively young age. The Imam was a scholar in many different disciplines of Islamic studies. The vastness of his works in these other areas is so great that if an individual decides to study fiqh\, hadith\, spirituality\, or Quran\, one must pass through Imam al- Nawawi. Along with the 40 Hadiths\, he authored Riyad al-Saliheen\, Al-Adhkar\, and commentary of Sahih Muslim and Sahih Bukhari.

Imam al-Nawawi’s collection of 40 Hadiths is one of the most important collections of hadiths we have today. He compiled a total of 42 hadiths for this collection\, not 40. Allah (SWT) granted him blessing and success in his work so that he could make significant contributions to Islam before passing away at a relatively young age. The Imam was a scholar in many different disciplines of Islamic studies. The vastness of his works in these other areas is so great that if an individual decides to study fiqh\, hadith\, spirituality\, or Quran\, one must pass through Imam al- Nawawi. Along with the 40 Hadiths\, he authored Riyad al-Saliheen\, Al-Adhkar\, and commentary of Sahih Muslim and Sahih Bukhari.

Helwa\, Secrets of Divine Love. Each session will cover a chapter and will include group discussions\, reflections\, and exercises from the book.

It is NOT a fiqh or aqidah class. The book contains various references and concepts that do not align with traditional Islamic scholarship on those subjects. If any participant has any questions about what scholars say about any of the concepts mentioned in the book or discussed in the book club meetings\, we strongly recommend consulting a scholar they know and trust and/or forwarding those questions to the organizers of the book club so that we can get guidance from a scholar and share that guidance with the group. \nWe intended to approach the abstract ideas found in this book as thought experiments and the exercises as cardio for the spiritual heart. Nothing in the book or book club meetings should be viewed as replacing\, undermining\, or contradicting traditional Islamic scholarship in any way.\nDiscussion Group Guidelines \n\n-Everyone has something to say\, everyone has something to learn\n\n-Shy people encouraged to contribute\n-Talkative people encouraged to restrain themselves\n\n\n-Confidentiality\n\n-Do not share people’s reflections outside of the group.  Can say stuff like “somebody in my book club made me think (this or that) about (this or that)”\, but not “(so and so) said …”\n\n\n-70 excuses\n\n-Give your sisters/brothers every benefit of the doubt as far as their intention with whatever they say\, particularly what you may disagree with\n\n\n-‘Dinner after’\n\n-If you have differences of opinion during the discussion\, remember the intention is beneficial learning that we are all working together to achieve.  So you leave those differences of opinion at the door when we’re done and still be ready to go to dinner after with people you may have disagreed with (see 70 excuses rule)\n\n\n-Be chill\n\n-Emotional subject matter requires conscious intention to remain emotionally intelligent and not let ourselves get carried away.  Particularly the brothers\, don’t get aggressive or excited\, appropriate adab with each other and with our sisters is required\n\n\n\nClass Schedule: \n\n-Intro\n\n-Aug 20\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 1 – Allah\n\n-Sep 3\, 2022\n\n\nChapter 2 – Humanity \n\n-Sep 17\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 3 – Qur’an\n\n-Oct 1\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 4 – Islam/Iman/Ihsan\n\n-Oct 15\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 5 – Tawba\n\n-Oct 29\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 6 – Shahadah\n\n-Nov 12\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 7 – Salat\n\n-Dec 3\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 8 – Zakat\n\n-Dec 17\, 2022\n\n\n-Chapter 9 – Ramadan\n\n-Jan 7\, 2023\n\n\n-Chapter 10 – Hajj\n\n-Jan 21\, 2023\n\n\n-Chapter 11 – Death\n\n-Feb 4\, 2023\n\n\n-Chapter 12 – Heaven and Hell\n\n-Feb 18\, 2023\n\n\n-Conclusion\n\n-Mar 4\, 2023\n\n\n\nBook Purchase: \nIf you wish to follow along with the book\, please purchase the book.

For the one who sometimes spirals into hopelessness and cannot help but feel too imperfect for a perfect God to love. This book is for the one who is at the edge of their faith\, who has experienced religion as a harsh winter instead of the life-bearing spring it was sent to be by God. \nSecrets of Divine Love serves as a compass and guiding light that returns you to the source of divine peace and surrender. Through the practices and pillars of Islam\, you will learn how to unlock your spiritual potential and unveil your divine purpose. A. Helwa uses a rational\, yet heart-based approach towards the Qur’an that not only enlightens the mind\, but inspires the soul towards deeper intimacy with Allah. By weaving together dozens of inspiring mystical stories\, Qur’an verses\, Hadith\, poetry\, psychology\, and science\, the author breaks down Islam in a way that is both digestible and inspiring for millennial Muslims. \nAuthor: A.
