The scholars and publishers who initially authored, worked on and released this “briefcase” in Shafi’i Fiqh had the intention to simplify and present the Madhab to students in an uncomplicated manner. Through the use of slides, charts and exercise questions the goal is to challenge and build the academic prowess of students and help them retain the information they learn.
Led by Ustadh Hesham Alagbari, TheShafiiPen Institute alongside a group of studious students aims to transform this “briefcase” into the English language in all facets. This includes teaching, translating the material and presenting it to all those who enrol in the program inshaa Allah.
Foundational Islamic Law Studies Series (FILSS) is a unique 1 year program that aims to help ground aspiring students of knowledge in Shafii Fiqh as they explore various topics.
