Reflecting on the life of Abu Ayub al-Ansari

Message

      Sheikh Yasir is the current Imam of the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center (ISBCC).

He was born and raised in New Jersey. 

For 
the past two years, he served as Scholar-in-Residence at Islamic Center 
of Passaic County in New Jersey.
Shaykh Yasir began the study of Arabic and Islamic Sciences in his 
high school years under the guidance of local teachers. 
At the age of 
seventeen, he traveled to Amman, where he spent a year studying at the 
Islamic University of Jordan. 
He returned to the US and completed a 
Bachelor’s of Science from Rutgers University. 
After working in 
corporate America for three years in finance, he returned to the Middle 
East and enrolled in the prestigious Al-Azhar University in Cairo.

After seven years of intensive study, Shaykh Yasir received a degree 
in Islamic Studies from Al-Azhar and attained numerous ‘ijazas 
(independent certifications) in the subjects of fiqh, hadith, aqida, 
usul al-fiqh, sirah, tazkiyyah, mantiq, Arabic grammar (nahu), 
morphology (sarf) and rhetoric (balagha). 
In 2013, Shaykh Yasir Fahmy 
became the first American Azhari to teach in the renowned Al-Azhar 
Mosque.

Through his teaching, lecturing, mentorship, and religious 
leadership, Shaykh Yasir aims to foster love for the deen and 
appreciation of the vast richness of Islamic tradition in new 
generations of American Muslims.
The first talk in this thread is titled "Surah Al-Kahf: Protection During Trying Times" which he gave a few days ago in Boston:

	Reflecting on the life of Abu Ayub al-Ansari One way of having a faith boost is to read, study and reflect on the stories of the righteous. Abu Ayub Al-Ansari was a companion of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, who lived in Madinah and is buried in Istanbul. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5H1Qb-8r0Q (55 minutes)
