I've never followed a madhhab before, how do I pick one?
Can I change which one I follow?
Why can't I follow a different madhhab for different issues?
Why should I even follow one instead of just doing my own ijtihad?

If you've ever asked the above questions, this year's Winter Intensive is for you! During these three days, you will discover how we understand and practice Islam. Upon concluding this course, you will have acquired a good understanding of how the four schools are inherited traditions representing more than a thousand years of scholarship, inshaAllah.

Alhamdulillah this year we are blessed to have an amazing, diverse and highly qualified group of scholars for the Winter Intensive. Join us as these scholars provide an in-depth discussion on the four Madhahib, differences of opinions, development of fiqh, and more!
