The traditional Islamic curriculum contains all of the resources that we need to protect our children and our communities from the challenges of modern atheism.
The Why Islam is True course is a contemporary articulation of the Classical Kalam curriculum. It uses rational arguments that are in the Quran and that were taught by scholars such as Imam Ghazali (may Allah have mercy on him) to demonstrate the truth of la ilaha illa allah muhammad rasul allah.
It has been taught on-the-ground by teachers all over the world in schools, weekend madrasas, and university halaqas.
It will teach them the Why Islam is True course with a special focus on the scholarly principles behind the design of the course and how it connects with the traditional sciences of the Classical Kalam curriculum.
By the end of the course, you will understand the rational arguments for Why Islam is True, how to find them in the Quran and the Classical Kalam curriculum, the most common objections of modern atheists, and how to use our own arguments to respond to these atheist objections.
All students will also receive a complimentary Why Islam Is True textbook ($35 value).
Spaces are limited.
Further Details:
This course is an intensive training in how to teach “Why Islam is True”. You will learn the discipline of formal reasoning using logical arguments, practice that discipline with the four key arguments of “Why Islam is True”, and then learn how to use those four arguments to nurture conviction in your students.
Our religion is based on rational evidence. (No other religion is). Even though this is not well-known today, this rational evidence is found in the Quran and in the Sirah of the Prophet Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace). Traditional Muslim scholars of tafsir, sirah, and theology have formalized this evidence into four key arguments:
1) The Quranic Argument From Contingency
2) The Quranic Design Argument
3) The Quranic Argument for the Oneness of God
4) The Quranic Argument from Miracles
This intensive training sessions will educate teachers in these key arguments and show them how to use them effectively to nurture evidence-based conviction in their students.
