Her desire to continue studying the Deen resulted in multiple trips back to Damascus\, interspersed between her high school\, college\, and medical studies. She was honored to receive Ijazah (authorization to teach) several branches of the Shari’ah sciences at the hands of many renowned scholars\, including many female scholars. She has received Ijazah to teach Tajwid in the Hafs and Warsh recitations from the late eminent Syrian scholar Shaykh Abu Hassan al-Kurdi. In addition to completing several advanced texts of the Shafi’i madhhab\, she is licensed to teach texts of Maliki fiqh\, Adab\, and Ihsan.

She completed her Psychiatric residency and fellowship training at Stanford University\, where she is currently on the faculty as a Clinical Instructor in the Stanford Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences department. Her medical interests include addressing mental health care concerns in the Muslim community- particularly that of Muslim women and girls. She has been awarded grants from the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) to research this topic and has presented her findings at several medical conferences. Other ongoing endeavors include compiling manuscripts addressing female-related mental health and medical issues from a fiqh-oriented perspective. She currently serves as the Director of the Rahmah Foundation\, a non-profit organization that teaches Muslim women and girls traditional Islamic knowledge.

SUMMARY:*Canceled* The House of Wisdom: How the Arabs Transformed Western Civilization | Jonathan Lynos
DESCRIPTION:Join this author’s event as we challenge selective narratives that have led many to believe that Islam and the West have nothing in common. Lynos aims to shed light on this misguided conviction and provide a deeper understanding of the similarities and connections between these two worlds. \n\n\n\nFriday\, May 3 | 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. | Prayer Hall | Join us in-person or watch live at mcceastbay.org/live  \n\n\n\nSponsored by Emir-Stein Center & MCC East Bay \n\n\n\nThis talk is based on Lyons’s book\, The House of Wisdom: How the Arabs Transformed Western Civilization (Bloomsbury Press\, 2009)\, which has appeared in a dozen foreign editions.Jonathan Lyons\, sociologist\, and intellectual historian\, is the author of three well-received works of narrative non-fiction\, including The House of Wisdom: How the Arabs Transformed Western Civilization (Bloomsbury Press\, 2009)\, which has appeared in a dozen foreign editions. His academic writing includes Islam through Western Eyes: From the Crusades to the War on Terrorism (Columbia University Press\, 2012) and contributions to The Oxford Encyclopedia of  Philosophy\, Science\, and Technology in Islam and other edited volumes. His trade and academic work share a common thread: the search for the social bases of human thought and the accompanying consequences for our understanding of the world.Lyons has a doctorate in sociology from Monash University\, Melbourne\, Australia\, and an undergraduate degree from Wesleyan University. Before turning to writing full-time in 2007\, Lyons served for 21 years as a foreign correspondent\, bureau chief\, and editor with the Reuters news agency\, with postings in Moscow\, Istanbul\, Tehran\, Washington\, and Jakarta. He lives in British Columbia\, Canada\, with his wife\, Michelle Johnson\, and their dog Ziggy Stardust.Learn more about him at https://jonathanlyons.pubsitepro.com.About His Book\, “The House of Wisdom”For centuries following the fall of Rome\, Western Europe was a benighted backwater\, a world of subsistence farming\, minimal literacy\, and violent conflict. Meanwhile\, Arab culture was thriving\, dazzling those Europeans fortunate enough to visit cities like Baghdad or Antioch. There\, philosophers\, mathematicians\, and astronomers were steadily advancing the frontiers of knowledge and keeping the works of Plato and Aristotle alive. When the best libraries in Europe held several dozen books\, Baghdad’s great library\, The House of Wisdom\, housed four hundred thousand. Jonathan Lyons shows how much “Western” ideas owe to the Golden Age of Arab civilization.Even while their fellow citizens waged bloody Crusades against Muslims\, a handful of intrepid Christian scholars\, hungry for knowledge\, traveled East and returned with priceless jewels of science\, medicine\, and philosophy that laid the foundation for the Renaissance. In this brilliant\, evocative book\, Jonathan Lyons reveals how Europe drank from the well of Muslim learning. \n\n\n\nQuestions? events@mcceastbay.org

Her desire to continue studying the Deen resulted in multiple trips back to Damascus\, interspersed between her high school\, college\, and medical studies. She was honored to receive Ijazah (authorization to teach) several branches of the Shari’ah sciences at the hands of many renowned scholars\, including many female scholars. She has received Ijazah to teach Tajwid in the Hafs and Warsh recitations from the late eminent Syrian scholar Shaykh Abu Hassan al-Kurdi. In addition to completing several advanced texts of the Shafi’i madhhab\, she is licensed to teach texts of Maliki fiqh\, Adab\, and Ihsan.

She completed her Psychiatric residency and fellowship training at Stanford University\, where she is currently on the faculty as a Clinical Instructor in the Stanford Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences department. Her medical interests include addressing mental health care concerns in the Muslim community- particularly that of Muslim women and girls. She has been awarded grants from the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) to research this topic and has presented her findings at several medical conferences. Other ongoing endeavors include compiling manuscripts addressing female-related mental health and medical issues from a fiqh-oriented perspective. She currently serves as the Director of the Rahmah Foundation\, a non-profit organization that teaches Muslim women and girls traditional Islamic knowledge. In this capacity\, she also heads the Murbbiyah Mentoring Program\, which trains young women to teach and mentor Muslim girls and teens.

DESCRIPTION:The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and give him peace) said\, “Our Lord\, Blessed\, and Exalted is He\, descends (i.e.\, His mercy and concern descends) to the lowest heaven when the final third of the night remains and says\, “Who is there to call on Me so I may answer them? Who is there to ask of Me so I may give them? Who is there to seek My forgiveness so I may forgive them?” [Bukhari] \n\n\n\nJoin us bi-weekly on Saturday mornings before Fajr to pray 4 units of Tahajjud (Night Prayer) & Witr Prayers in the congregation\, followed by Fajr prayer and then light\, yummy snacks. \n\n\n\nThere is no better way to start a day than to pray Tahajjud and Fajr in the congregation along with your loved ones! \n\n\n\nThese bi-weekly Tahajjud prayers are organized by the youth in our community. \n\n\n\nEvery other Saturday | 3:50 a.m. to 5:30 a.m. | MCC Prayer Hall | All ages welcome \n\n\n\nLight snacks will be provided after the Fajr Adhan in the Banquet Hall.Join the Tahajjud WhatsApp group here: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GEDbnzDiXb73pU6ww1s19m \n\n\n\nTentative Schedule:3:45 a.m. – doors open3:52 a.m. – Tahajjud starts (Huffaz will recite Juz #4 – First Half (3:171 – 4:23))4:37 a.m. – Fajr Adhan4:40 a.m. – Snacks are served5:20 a.m. – Fajr iqamah5:30 a.m. – cleanup
