Weekly Durūs

The concept of mulāzamah or ṭūl al-ṣuḥbah, which translates to ‘extended companionship,’ was once a central theme of scholars of old. However, this practice has faded in modern times due to contemporary challenges.

To help revive this important tradition, Al-Maʿrifa hosts weekly lessons both onsite and online.
