Prophetic Traditions & Sciences
Why this Islamic Course?
The compilation and preservation of Hadith represent a monumental effort undertaken by scholars across centuries. In the 8th and 9th centuries, notable collections such as Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim emerged, showcasing the rigor and precision with which Hadith were authenticated and compiled. These collections, among others, serve as invaluable repositories of Prophetic wisdom, guiding believers in matters of faith, conduct, and jurisprudence.
Moreover, the module delves into the intricate methodologies employed by Hadith masters in the collection, verification, and categorization of Hadith. Students gain insights into the critical role of authenticity, chain of transmission, and textual analysis in distinguishing between sound and weak Hadith, ensuring the preservation of the Prophetic legacy in its purest form.

Formerly, Shaykh Ahmed worked as a Lead Researcher at Tabah Foundation.

Shaykh Ahmed continues to participate in Suaal initiative through essays, public lectures, and workshops.
Shaykh Ahmed studied Anthropology at American University in Cairo and received his training in Leadership Communication from Tulane University and The University of Alabama at Birmingham. He is also a life-long learner. He holds a diversified portfolio of almost 50 certificates in a variety of subjects – extending from Teaching Character and Clinical Psychology of Children and Young People to Complexity Theory, Model Thinking and Conflict Analysis.
Shaykh Ahmed began his journey of studying traditional sciences about 20 years ago. In addition to studying with scholars from al-Azhar, he had the privilege of studying with visiting scholars from Algeria and India in a one-on-one format and was thus given an exceptional opportunity to study and discuss advanced-level texts of different sorts and over a long period of time. Shaykh Ahmed has more than 70 Ijazas from scholars from all over the Muslim world.
