Sisters’ Online Intensive
By Munzareen | July 5, 2008
Bismillah.
Stony Brook MSA is having an online intensive for sisters’ this summer on “The Fiqh of Menstruation.” Ustadha Shamira Chothia Ahmed from Zaytuna Institute will be holding classes online for those interested starting July 9th at 2PM EST (edit: Classes are being postponed until July 16th- so there is still time to register). For Ustadha Shamira’s biography, please see the end of this post. The course will be conducted based on a text written by Mufti Abdur Rehman ibn Yusuf and his wife, Rashida Eskajee available online through ZamZam Academy. The cost for the entire course is $20- but no one will be turned down due to a lack of funds.
If you are interested in taking the course:
1. Please e-mail msasis@gmail.com expressing your intent to enroll in the class.
2. When you get a confirmation e-mail back, please send your deposit via the button below.
Ustadha Shamira Chothia Ahmed
Born in Northern California, Shamira Chothia Ahmed is an emerging young, female teacher of the traditional Islamic sciences. Her studies led her to seek knowledge from scholars on three continents — Africa, Europe, and Asia. Upon receiving ijaazas (authorizations) to teach, she was granted the opportunity to be an instructor of Hanafi fiqh for women at the Zaytuna Institute in Hayward, California. Privately, she taught fiqh (jurisprudence), tajwid (cantillation) and Qur’anic tafsir (exegesis). She recently completed her M.A. in the Social Sciences at the University of California, Irvine, and teaches classes on hadith to sisters in the Southern California region.
Edit: Classes will be starting July 16th insha’Allah at 2PM EST.

Greetings to the Sisters of MSA:
am a non-Muslim who has been studying Islam and I am writing
this to the Islamic/non-Islamic community in the hopes that they
will be as outraged as I am.
I am hoping I can encourage everyone I know and don’t know to quickly sign
A petition to save the life of a Jordanian woman currently arrested and facing death for
witchcraft in Saudi Arabia. The women in question is an illiterate domestic
servant from Jordan who was accused of being a witch by a local man suffering from mental illness.
She has been imprisoned and tortured for several years and now faces being
beheaded. Please see the attached letter to the king and sign it and pass it on.
This is exactly the publicity that people read that makes them have a
negative view of Islam. I hope everyone can participate in this campaign.
You may also write the King Abdullah directly via the embassy at
