A Life Changing Experience
“Since joining the Year of Knowledge program, my Salah has greatly improved in both consistency and quality. Throughout the day, my thoughts and heart are always connected to the topics we discuss in class. I now appreciate the ease that Islam offers, and Salah has become my safe-haven and escape. I feel a deep sense of love from Allah and reassurance of my worth through my humble servitude to Him. Learning about Tazkiyah has transformed my despair, fear, and guilt into awe, gratitude, and certainty in Allah’s Justness. Ive realized not to limit Him with my own expectations and have become more aware of His unfathomable ability. I can now embrace vulnerability and pour my heart out to Allah, whether in remorse or gratitude. The importance of the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad and the wisdom in Hadith have become more apparent to me. I have even been consistent with voluntary fasting for the sake of Allah. Every “success” is solely from Allah. Alhamdulillah for the blessing of this program.”
- Karen, Year of Knowledge student
Alhamdulillah, this is my third year with the YOK program, and inshallah, if Allah wills I will continue studying with this program. The main reason I’m continuing with the program is because they teach the knowledge of Allah practically not only theoretically. In every class in each subject, the question is raised, how do I apply what I learned practically and how does it affect my daily life?
Alhamdulillah from a young age I’ve been familiar with the Quran, Hadiths of the Prophet (ﷺ), and Names of Allah (ﷻ). But never learned them in depth and how to apply them in daily life, during this time and era until I joined YOK. Can’t be more grateful to Allah (ﷻ) that He blessed, guided me to register for this program, and open for me His doors of knowledge.
