Shafi'i Fiqh w/ Athman Jilo

We're super pumped to bring back our dear teacher Ust. Athman Jilo for our next edition of "Bare Necessities" - our 10-week series covering the basics of belief and prayer according to the 4 schools of thoughts (madhabs) in Sunni Islam. This round, we're focusing on Shafi'i  fiqh.   

This class will cover belief, purification, and prayer; touching briefly on fasting, zakat and hajj.

To help hold students accountable for their attendance, we're charging a modest $50 for the entire series (that's ~$5/class) - converts can attend $free.99! As always, scholarships are available for anyone who is unable to pay, but still wants to commit to attending. Email lauren@centerdc.org for registration support.
