SUMMARY:Women's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join our weekly sisters’ virtual & in-person Seerah book club where we have an active discussion\, take away lessons for our daily lives\, and inshaAllah fall in love with the Prophet ﷺ. We are reading “The Sultan of Hearts Prophet Muhammad ﷺ” by Resit Haylamaz and Fatih Harpci. \nRSVP for the live registration link below at mcceastbay.org/bookclub. No RSVP needed to join us in person in the MCC Conference Room (masks and social distancing required) \nEvent Details: \nThe discussion will take place every Wednesday from 10:45 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. and in Fall 2021 run from Wednesday\, Sept. 29 to Dec. 15 (with a break on Thanksgiving week on Nov. 24). The sessions are hybrid: meaning as in-person & virtual session. No RSVP needed to join in person. For the link to join virtually\, please register below. \nUstadha Leila Fakira sends the webinar link to registered attendees after registration.  \nBook Purchase: \nIf you wish to follow along with the book\, you’ll need to purchase the book. The book is out of print\, but can be purchased here: \n\nhttps://www.antstores.com/search?type=product&q=9781597849425\nhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/1597849421/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fab_mHaAFb4CRDKX5\n\nQuestions? bookclub@mcceastbay.org \n[wpforms id=”19807″ title=”false” description=”false”] \nAbout the Book\nOffering a comprehensive narrative of one of the most fascinating life stories of human history\, The Sultan of Hearts is an authoritative work on the life of Prophet Muhammad\, peace be upon him. The book relies firmly on canonical Hadith collections and Sirah literature\, and is rich with references to many contemporary biographical works such as Al-Maktabatu’s-Sirah\, Al-Maktabatu’l-Alfiyah\, and Al-Maktabatu’sh-Shamilah. \nThe Sultan of Hearts presents the life of the Prophet and the events that unfolded during his mission by contextualizing them with Qur’anic revelations. \nAnalyzing “reasons of revelation” (Asbab al-Nuzul)\, a method in Tafsir studies\, authors portray how every revealed verse of God’s word transformed his society and they reconstruct the biography based on this interaction between the scripture and the events. The book lays bare the role of the Qur’an in the education of the large congregation of the Companions\, and with it reveals the kind of teaching and drill that the Messenger of Allah exercised in his close circle. \nThe developments that preceded and followed the statements of the beloved Prophet are reported extensively in order to point to both the educational aspects of the Qur’an and the role of our noble Prophet in transforming people’s lives. There are also detailed accounts of the spiritual and psychological states of many individuals from those who believed the Prophet and those who did not.

The trail is primarily used for hiking\, running\, and nature trips. \nQuestions? hiking@mcceastbay.org \n\nPark Features: Deep in a valley framed by oak-covered hills\, with sailboats and sailboards skimming over its waters\, Del Valle is like a lakeside resort only 10 miles south of Livermore. 5\,000 acre Del Valle Regional Park features two swim beaches\, a boat launch\, family and group camping (by reservation) and excellent\, stocked fishing. Trail Highlights: This hike around the northern part of the lake is removed from the busy swim beaches in the southern part of the lake; enjoy the wilderness feel and explore a part of Del Valle you may not have seen before. The contrast in scenery from the ridge of East Shore Trail and the lakeside Heron Bay Trail provides a diverse recreational experience. This hike features several steep climbs and descents and is recommended for those with a good level of fitness. There is a drinking fountain but no restrooms at the trailhead. Be sure to carry plenty of water on your hike. Trail Directions: Start along the trail from the Arroyo Road Staging Area\, going up the large hill. Go left to start the East Shore Trail. Continue on East Shore Trail\, avoiding four turnoffs for the Heron Bay Trail; take the fifth turn off\, turning right onto Heron Bay Trail. Complete the first Heron Bay loop and take a left to connect back with East Shore Trail. Go left at the next turnoff for Heron Bay Trail and complete a small loop back to East Shore Trail again; take East Shore a very short distance and turn left again for the last section of Heron Bay Trail. Make a left at the last intersection with East Shore Trail and follow it back down the large hill and to the staging area. \n\nPhotos from September 4\, 2021 hike to Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park

There are also detailed accounts of the spiritual and psychological states of many individuals from those who believed the Prophet and those who did not.

SUMMARY:Women's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join our weekly sisters’ virtual & in-person Seerah book club where we have an active discussion\, take away lessons for our daily lives\, and inshaAllah fall in love with the Prophet ﷺ. We are reading “The Sultan of Hearts Prophet Muhammad ﷺ” by Resit Haylamaz and Fatih Harpci. \nRSVP for the live registration link below at mcceastbay.org/bookclub. No RSVP needed to join us in person in the MCC Conference Room (masks and social distancing required) \nEvent Details: \nThe discussion will take place every Wednesday from 10:45 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. and in Fall 2021 run from Wednesday\, Sept. 29 to Dec. 15 (with a break on Thanksgiving week on Nov. 24). The sessions are hybrid: meaning as in-person & virtual session. No RSVP needed to join in person. For the link to join virtually\, please register below. \nUstadha Leila Fakira sends the webinar link to registered attendees after registration.  \nBook Purchase: \nIf you wish to follow along with the book\, you’ll need to purchase the book. The book is out of print\, but can be purchased here: \n\nhttps://www.antstores.com/search?type=product&q=9781597849425\nhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/1597849421/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fab_mHaAFb4CRDKX5\n\nQuestions? bookclub@mcceastbay.org \n[wpforms id=”19807″ title=”false” description=”false”] \nAbout the Book\nOffering a comprehensive narrative of one of the most fascinating life stories of human history\, The Sultan of Hearts is an authoritative work on the life of Prophet Muhammad\, peace be upon him. The book relies firmly on canonical Hadith collections and Sirah literature\, and is rich with references to many contemporary biographical works such as Al-Maktabatu’s-Sirah\, Al-Maktabatu’l-Alfiyah\, and Al-Maktabatu’sh-Shamilah. \nThe Sultan of Hearts presents the life of the Prophet and the events that unfolded during his mission by contextualizing them with Qur’anic revelations. \nAnalyzing “reasons of revelation” (Asbab al-Nuzul)\, a method in Tafsir studies\, authors portray how every revealed verse of God’s word transformed his society and they reconstruct the biography based on this interaction between the scripture and the events. The book lays bare the role of the Qur’an in the education of the large congregation of the Companions\, and with it reveals the kind of teaching and drill that the Messenger of Allah exercised in his close circle. \nThe developments that preceded and followed the statements of the beloved Prophet are reported extensively in order to point to both the educational aspects of the Qur’an and the role of our noble Prophet in transforming people’s lives. There are also detailed accounts of the spiritual and psychological states of many individuals from those who believed the Prophet and those who did not.

The book relies firmly on canonical Hadith collections and Sirah literature\, and is rich with references to many contemporary biographical works such as Al-Maktabatu’s-Sirah\, Al-Maktabatu’l-Alfiyah\, and Al-Maktabatu’sh-Shamilah. \nThe Sultan of Hearts presents the life of the Prophet and the events that unfolded during his mission by contextualizing them with Qur’anic revelations. \nAnalyzing “reasons of revelation” (Asbab al-Nuzul)\, a method in Tafsir studies\, authors portray how every revealed verse of God’s word transformed his society and they reconstruct the biography based on this interaction between the scripture and the events. The book lays bare the role of the Qur’an in the education of the large congregation of the Companions\, and with it reveals the kind of teaching and drill that the Messenger of Allah exercised in his close circle. \nThe developments that preceded and followed the statements of the beloved Prophet are reported extensively in order to point to both the educational aspects of the Qur’an and the role of our noble Prophet in transforming people’s lives. There are also detailed accounts of the spiritual and psychological states of many individuals from those who believed the Prophet and those who did not.
