ABOUT SEEKERSHUB
We personally know scholars who have been kidnapped, detained, jailed, tortured, or
simply disappeared. Other scholars have been forced to flee their homes and remain in

Among the scholars who had been affected by the economic and social instability— Autumn’s Mercy and The Woke
and resultant rising cost of living–in the Muslim world was Shaykh Ali Hani, recognized Prophet – Khutba by Abdul-Rehman
recognized by senior scholars as one of the foremost authorities in both the Arabic Malik
sciences, and the sciences of Qur’an, and Qur’anic exegesis (tafsir). Leading scholars
seek him out to study under him.

This is a critical and urgent need in our times. We owe it to these scholars, whom the
Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself referred to as his inheritors. We
owe it to our future generations. We owe it to ourselves.

Supporting female and male scholarship

SeekersHub is also supporting many
committed and dedicated students of
knowledge, male and female, through our
work-study scholarships.

This enables them to commit themselves to

the path of knowledge, and provides the
training, guidance, and mentorship to
develop the skills needed to be effective
scholars, teachers, community leaders, and
inheritors of the Prophetic tradition.

The need to support such worthy students of

knowledge is critical at a time when there are few reliable mainstream institutions that
do the same.

Let’s not fail the next generation

If our community fails to support students who are dedicating themselves to become
scholars, we will fail to preserve Prophetic guidance.

By supporting such students, we ensure the preservation of Islam in our families, our
communities; We are actively participating in the preservation of God’s greatest gift to
creation – the gift of Islam, the gift of the light of Prophetic guidance.
Help #SpreadLight. Help SeekersHub Global support needy and deserving scholars
and students of knowledge. Give your Zakat generously. Actively encourage family and
friends to do so. And pray for the success of this initiative to preserve and #SpreadLight
– the light of the Beloved of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
