The Shama’il of the Prophet ﷺ

Instructor: Shaykh AbdulNasir Jangda

Date & Time: Friday, November 7 (6:30 PM – 10:00 PM)

Location: ADAMS Sterling (Main Musallah)

Program Description:

Join us for a special evening seminar exploring the Shama’il of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ — a classical genre of Islamic literature that beautifully details the Prophet’s noble appearance, manners, habits, and character. Through the study of the Shama’il, we come to know the Messenger of Allah ﷺ not only as a teacher and leader, but as a husband, friend, and servant of God whose compassion, humility, and mercy continue to inspire believers across generations.

Under the guidance of Shaykh AbdulNasir Jangda, we will delve into selected narrations and reflections that illuminate how the Prophet’s ﷺ daily conduct embodied the Qur’an in action. This seminar aims to deepen our love for the Prophet ﷺ and help us emulate his character in our own lives, fostering a more personal and meaningful connection to his Sunnah.
