The Sunnah of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) is a source of legislation in our Sharee’ah. Allaah says, “O you who have believed, obey Allaah and His Messenger and do not turn from him while you hear [his order]” [8:20]. In order to obey the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) we have to receive his message but how can we determine if these words are really from him (صلى الله عليه وسلم)?

Unlike the Qur’aan, the authenticity of the Sunnah must be verified before it is used as proof. This is because there are many weak and fabricated narrations which have been falsely attributed to the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم). In this course you will study the knowledge of the principles and rules that differentiates between the narrations that were authentically transmitted from the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and those that have been falsely attributed to him.

Testimonials

"I have been studying at Tayyibun Institute since 2008 and last year I moved to Saudi Arabia. Although I was very happy, I soon realized that I could not seek knowledge without first learning the Arabic Language. Whilst learning Arabic I also wanted to seek Islamic knowledge. I saw some online courses but felt that it would not be as good as Tayyibun Institute, so I was very happy when I found out that they have online courses. Even though one might think that their online courses are not as good as the centre, it turned out to be better than going to the centre, not only because I live in Saudi Arabia but mainly because you will be able to study in your own time. From what I have experienced I can say that the courses at Tayyibun Institute (and online) are very much practical. Jazaahum'Allahu Khairan"
