Looking at Islam for Life

With the aim to improve the lifestyle of thousands of Muslims in the Cape Town community, scholars at Masjidul Munowara are once again inviting the public to participate in their latest Islamic lifestyle course, ‘Islam for Life’. Maulana Irshaad Sedick, the imam at Retreat based masjid said many individuals have already come forward to register for the course. The speaker, Maulana Muaath Allie is an expert in the field of Islam, marriage and other topics.
“Most people don’t know that he is a professional and this course will be done in the entire field of application of the Quran and sunnah. It's done in a very practical way so that we can live a better life, insh Allah,” said Sedick. Many Muslims are resorting to ‘Western’ books for guidance. “The modern trend in the West is that people need motivation and inspiration at all times. Many Muslims are also buying these type of books to get guidance. Why not give our brothers and sister’s knowledge and guidance from Islam that lead them to others,” he said.
“When we look in some of these books we will see that many of these principles are rooted to Islam, so why not look at it from an Islamic point of view. Why do we have to resort to other books when the Quran gives the best guidance in life?” questioned Sedick. The first lecture for the course will take place at the masjid on Tuesday and will be proceeding for the next 10 weeks, said Sedick.
“This course is free of charge for both men and women and will be taking place after Eshaai every Tuesday night. Donations are accepted for this program as this is the only way for us to keep up with these courses in the community." He added that notes and DVD’s will be handed out to participants throughout the program and that many of the features are beneficial to the people.
“It is important for us to have something significant like Islam that we can call life and not just a ritual that we follow. I therefore urge you to join this course...it will be of great value to all Inshal Alla, Ameen.” If you would like to know more on the Islam for Life course or would like to register yourself, you can contact Maulana Irshaad Sedick on 082 780 5931 or 021 701 29 62.
