Rihla - Hijab - Shaykh Hamza Yusuf

Lessons from the RIHLA retreat.
RIHLA was started as a knowledge retreat for Muslims many years ago by Shaykh Hamza Yusuf to enhance classical traditional Islamic Education. It reinforces the importance of tassawwuf in our times as a remedy to the many fold troubles in our lives.
Shaykh Hamza is the pioneer of the annual RIHLA program but it has grown to include some of the most erudite Muslim scholars of our times. It is a rich collection of lessons made available for all English speaking seekers of knowledge on topics ranging from the creed, essential fiqh, scholars of our past, history of our nations, why to eat organic food, environmental issues, evolution theory, medicine, translation of classical arabic texts, and much more.
Thanks to the prolific reading undertaken by the teachers in the RIHLA in their thirst for all kinds of knowledge, some of the topics covered have never been discussed before in the light of Islam.

Assalamualikum warahmathulahi wabarakathu... jazakallahu khairan for sharing this video, Subhan'Allah the shaykh is full of knowledge. Just to say briefly that in the Hanafi madhab the slave woman's awrah is from below the breasts (covering her back and stomach) till the knees. Whereas for a free woman's awrah is everything other than the face, hands and feet- infront of ghair mehram. As for the niqab there is ikhtilaaf in the Hanafi madhab, some scholars say it is wajib others say it is mustahab. In other madhaahib niqab is mustahab.
