Got a Question? We’re Here for You
Whether you’re curious about course content, learning formats, or how to get started, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. Explore the answers below, and remember — seeking knowledge is part of the path.
What sets Deep Fiqh apart from other Ḥanafī fiqh courses or overviews?
As the word suggests, this is a “deep” dive into fiqh rulings. Where some hanafi fiqh sources can be either too basic or too advanced, we believe deep fiqh provides the right balance, of covering fiqh comprehensively but at the same time avoiding but unnecessary or irrelevant fiqh discussions, which provide no real benefit for students living in the modern world.
Which text will we study in full, and how closely will we follow it?
We cover the text; Ascent to Felicity (Maraqi 'l-Sa'adat) which is a concise, authoritative primer on Hanafi jurisprudence (Fiqh) written by the 11th-century scholar Imam Hasan ibn 'Ammar al-Shurunbulali. It covers essential acts of worship (five pillars) and daily life rulings, designed as a clear, comprehensive guide. We read the text the way a traditional student of knowledge would study it in the Islamic world; the teacher explaining line by line. We also cover virtually all the accompanying footnotes, which provide further important details.
Will the course explain why rulings exist, not just what they are?
Where appropriate the teacher delves into the reasoning behind key rulings and how to apply those principles to other rulings as well.
How is Maraqi ‘l-Sa’adat taught — through commentary, application, or both?
The book is taught explaining the text line by line, ensuring each ruling is explained and understood. Students can review the learning via the recordings and ask questions on the student forum for further explanation to clarify further. The Shaykh will also mention where appropriate the rulings from the other schools, and when and how they would be applicable.
How do the live tutorials with Shaykh Amer Jamil work?
In some tutorials the Shaykh provides knowledge on the historical background and structure of the Hanafi school as well as the major works a student should be aware and familiar with. The tutorials are an opportunity to allow students have ask questions and revisit any part of the text which they feel needs explaining again.
Will I have lifetime or term-long access to recordings and materials?
Students have access for a full year.
Is this course suitable for students who want advanced understanding?
This course is most suited for those who have some reading or understanding of fiqh, but wish to formulate a solid grounding in the science. Upon successful completion of the course, a student should be able to answer the vast majority of questions which may arise on a daily basis from an average person.
Can I take Deep ʿAqīdah and Deep Fiqh together, or should I focus on one?
This all depends on the student. Some prefer to do one course per year, others have done both courses simultaneously.
