Unlock the hidden treasures of Prayer

Prayer Beyond the Motions is a deeply immersive experience for hearts longing for real connection with Allah…beyond routine, beyond performance to fulfil the true purpose Allah has set for us.

Enriched with the concepts of Tazkiya, the Quranic science of change, this course will combine the deeper meanings of the adhaan wudhu and salah to give a sense of what the daily prayers would have been like for the Prophet s.a.w and his companions.

It will provide a glimpse of why salah has been described as an ascension for the believer.

All in preparation for when we present ourselves before the Lord of the Worlds.

Are you ready for your elevation and ascension?

About the Seminar

This seminar is unique - all the questions that have never been addressed in any salah (prayer) course you can find here.

Learn the Quranic model for how to connect spiritually with your Creator through prayer. Let us teach you the hidden meanings behind salah supported with ayaat and hadith of Prophet (S) and learn why salah is essential to your existence. Not only will the instructor impart the skills you'll need to master khushoo but he will delve more deeply, into the inner realms and intricacies of this ibadaa (worship).

As a result, the prayer will no longer be regarded as a mechanical chore, but an intimate meeting with the Divine. Through such insight, we hope you will leave this non-fiqh seminar with an awakened and unparalleled understanding of this fundamental pillar of Islam.

Meet the Instructor

Shaykh Abu Mukram has been teaching Islamic Sciences for over 35 years. A seasoned Islamic educator, the instructor brings years of spiritual teaching experience with a passion for reconnecting people with their Divine purpose through the Quran. He brings extraordinary wisdom and unique perspectives to the topics he teaches by combining classical Islamic scholastic views with conventional wisdom, all within the framework of the Quran and reliable narrations of the Messenger (saws).
