Here’s a brief summary of a few of Sunday’s TDC talks, from our “reporter in the field”, Ahmad Al Farsi– Sex Ed., Domestic Harmony and Meet the Shayookh (Sh. Yasir Qadhi, Sh. Yaser Birjas, Imam Johari Abdul Malik) :

Sex Ed., by Sh. Yaser Birjas

A lecture that broke all taboos, to tell things as it is.

The shaykh delivered a MUCH needed lecture on the proper etiquettes of the bedroom for a Muslim couple, going way beyond the syllabus of “Fiqh of Love”, to very explicit details that I won’t mention here (I don’t feel a blog is the proper place to discuss this). Suffice to say that, insha’Allah, every married couple would benefit from learning the specifics covered in this lecture - specifics that many are too afraid to mention - but should not be afraid to mention, as long as the discussion takes place in the proper setting, with the appropriate conduct.

Texas Dawah Convention — Day Two: Notes from Lectures http://muslimmatters.org/2007/12/23/texas-dawah-convention-%e2%80%94-day-two-notes-from-lectures/ http://muslimmatters.org/2007/12/23/texas-dawah-convention-%e2%80%94-day-two-notes-from-lectures/#comments Sun, 23 Dec 2007 11:36:02 +0000 muslimmatters http://muslimmatters.org/2007/12/23/texas-dawah-convention-%e2%80%94-day-two-notes-from-lectures/




Yasir Qadhi added his bit:

I’m writing from the convention center… I’m attending all of the lectures by our dear Shaykh Salah al-Sawi. He is giving an intensive series on the Fiqh of Family life, very interesting.

Its amazing to see ALL of us speakers, whenever we don’t have our own lectures, are eager to attend Sh. Salah’s lectures. Right now I have Kamal al-Makki, Isam Rajab and Yassir Fazaqa next to me (Yaser Birjas is giving his own lecture now, but attended the previous sessions).

It’s only in Arabic, so audience is the smallest out of all the lectures, but of course its the most academic.

May Allah bless Sh. Salah, and all of the other people of knowledge who benefit the Ummah!

Bro. ibnabeeomar was kind enough to stay up past his bed time in order to bring the MM readers a quick recap of Saturday’s talks on “Archetype of a Muslim Husband”, “Rules of Islamic Engagement” & “Men are from Mecca, Women are from Medinah”:

Apparently, Shaykh Yasir also delivered this speech at the IRF Peace Conference 2007 in Mumbai, India. I hope the thousands there got to hear it, because this is a solid lecture. Watch it and you will change the way you think about sleeping or going to work with your relation to Allah (SWT).

The video is produced by the recently launched Wasat Studios which I am a team member of. We just launched a new website at www.wasatstudios.com, so be sure to check it out. We have more vids of YQ and others on the way so stay tuned.

Bayyinah Institute for Arabic studies has a large student body throughout North America. Br. Nouman’s Fundamentals of Classical Arabic class has been taught in over 30 cities in North America alhamdulillah.

Nouman currently serves as professor of Arabic at Nassau Community College and has taught Modern Standard and Classical Arabic at various venues for nearly 6 years with over 700 students. His handbook published by the Bayyinah Arabic Studies Institute for ARA-201 is also being used as a class aide at the Jaamiah-Al-Uloom Al-Islamiyyah, Institute of Islamic Education in Ajax, Canada.

As many of his students can attest to, Br. Nouman brings a unique flavor of Tafseer and Arabic grammar to the English speaking audience. His classes give us glimpses into many of the linguistic miracles of the Quran - a taste of which you can find here.

We’re also pleased to post this khutbah by Br. Nouman regarding Ghaflah - an excellent khutbah to jump start your Ramadan with.
