“Again it is something that all Muslims should take especially New Muslims so as to educate themselves on the How To's of our daily practice of worshipping God! Instructor was absolutely knowledgable in his field and what I appreciate the most is that he did not deviate from the information at hand! The courses were very well thought out and presented.The course material was given at a reasonable speed in order to digest the information!”

“I learnt so much from this class, even on topics I thought I already know much about before. I would highly recommend this particular course to others as this is a very important course - it steers one's belief to the right way. Imam Tahawi's work was explained in a detailed but interesting way and the class topics were organised in great way. Many points of confusions which I had (most of them I was unaware of) were straightened out in the class. I find the classes very interactive, I have learnt tremendously and look forward to classes every week, every term. It is hard to find traditional Islamic courses in the area where I live and making it online makes it accessible to everyone. The more I learn, the more I appreciate traditional Islamic knowledge.”

“After finishing it I felt that I understood better my religion. As a revert, I did not know most of the points of belief and how to understand them better. What I liked best was that the Sheikh repeated explanations, therefore it was impossible for someone not to understand. Also, he spoke with clarity and ease and was very patient with our questions.”

Housewife, Birkirkara, Malta
“You get to hear Sheikh Hamza sing tala 'al badru alayna - can't get better than that! On a more serious note: It makes one realise our true purpose in life and not to busy ourselves with things that have no importance. You have a clearer understanding of who our Lord is and His Majestic Power. Sheikh Hamza's analogies and examples to enhance my learning as well as his humour and his articulation and knowledge. The list goes on...masha'Allah. Thoroughly enjoyed his teaching style.It's easy to access, the teacher has a wealth of valuable knowledge and is set out very professionally. It is very interactive and straight to the point. I didn't expect to benefit as much as I would in an online course as compared to ones I've attended face to face. I must say it has far exceeded my expectations alhamdulilah.”

“This course should be pre-requisite for ALL new Muslims. It is the course that every mosque should have. This is the core of what we need to pray, worship and understand. Many personal experiences where shared, making this a course where we all felt equal - not like students, but more like a bunch of peers learning together. This environment, combined with the pre-recorded expertise was a very nice mix.”
Hymie Ali
Imam-in-training, Winnipeg, Canada
“I understood more than I had hoped / expected to understand about Imam at Tahawi's belief. The course material was strong, the forums and TA were helpful. I would recommend this course to others because I enjoyed the experience myself and will benefit from the knowledge for the rest of my life. The courses lead somewhere, but can also be taken in isolation. There is a sense of achievement immediately, but an aspiration to do better and achieve success in later courses also. The curriculum is broad and far reaching, clear and my experience is that all can be learned and applied either immediately or will serve as a reference foundation to be referred to in the future. The course material is engaging and professional. SunniPath courses humble and encourage.”

“I would recommend this course because it teaches one the most important things about one's belief. It is very relevant to our time and helps us understand the differences that exist in the Muslim community, as well as our own beliefs what they entail. This course cleared up for me a lot of confusion, and taught me how to understand and handle the differences within the Muslim Ummah. It also explained to me the relationship I must have with my Creator, thus making it possible for me to take steps in the right direction. Alhamdulillah, the benefit of this is already apparent in my practice. Shaykh Hamza is a wonderful instructor. He is patient and very good at explaining things, masha'Allah. What I admire about him is that he is ready to answer any question that he has knowledge about, as long as it is put to him in a correct manner. He understands the confusions many of students have and is willing to explain controversial topics with ease and grace. I have taken many a course with him and could not wish for a better teacher, alhamdulillah. May Allah SWT continue to bless him with knowledge and imaan, ameen.”

“I would recommend this particular course to others because it helps put the sciences of Islam into perspective, and gives us a grounding in the discipline of theology. The material is delivered very clearly and effectively. The material itself, when it is explained to us, produces awe for the early scholars. We have been led into the discipline of theology by an able and trustworthy guide. Very clear and effective, the instructor patiently teaches us what we need to know.”
Broderic Indranada
Student, Melbourne, Australia
“I would recommend this course because it gives one a grounding in what one needs to know and also dispells any doubts one may have. It also had a balanced approach urging one to worship instead of constantly studying points of 'aqidah. What can I say about Sh. Hamza that has not already been said. He displays sincerity, knowledge- as well as the humilty to say, 'I don't know.' He also displays an understanding of some spiritual aspects of our religion with which he can guide students to what is beneficial and what is not.”
Talut Dawood
IT Professional, Raleigh, USA
“This course is difficult but I would highly recommend it to anyone who has to interact with either Non-Muslims or Muslims from various sects as it helps understand and clear doubts on some fundamental aspects of faith and belief...Sheikh Hamza is very knowledgeable and manages to explain simply and clearly very difficult concepts. I especially appreciated the way that Sheikh Hamza constantly put the Aqida Tahawiyya in its historical context and the limits of theology and how to integrate theology in our practice of Islam.”
Wasem Gawish
Intern, Tulsa, USA
“I would recommend this course because it gives you a good handle on many confusing topics are, unfortunately, too commonly discussed.”
Rayad Khan

“I would recommend this course to those wishing to study aqeedah. Anyone who wishes to be involved in dawah work should take this class.”
Hallie Pape
Housewife, Canton, MI
“This course provided a veritable gold mine of information and clarifications about issues regarding belief and the history of the development of the science of aqidah and was a wonderfully taught expose of the beliefs of ahl us sunnah wal jama'ah and why we believe what we do.”
Simon Dewar
IT Professional, Canberra, Australia
“I would because it gave me a totally different perspective to learning aqida from before. It increased my certainty and iman, along with my awe and reverence for Allah Most High. Before, I would say I 'knew' my aqida; this course helped me understand and internalise it. JazahuAllahu khairan to Shaikh Hamza for teaching it so well, mashaAllah.”
Uzma Jung
Housewife, Redbridge, UK
“I would recommend this particular course to others because it covers some questions that many people ask to Muslims that can be very challenging to answer if you don't have the right knowledge. It also helps us understand which questions are beneficial to ask and which ones are not as necessary.”
Shannen Espelien
Burnsville, USA
“Great teacher, lots to learn...I would recommend the course to anyone who wants firmer grasp on our belief.”
Ahmed Abbasi
Student, Atlanta, USA
“I would recommend this course because Shaykh Hamza is a very humble teacher who demonstrates much passion for the subject and makes very difficult material as easy to understand as is possible with such a difficult subject.”
Nagina Razaq
Full-Time Employee, Slough, England
“I would recommend this course to others because it will help you become organized with you learning the deen as this is the basic foundation. Starting off with this course is very beneficial because it will help clear any doubts you have and help you to continue your learning to other courses. Shaykh Hamza explained the usually difficult to grasp points thoroughly and used good examples also.”
Yassar Khan
Student, New York City, USA
“Sheikh Hamza provided the student with amazing knowledge and understanding about Islamic belief. Though this knowledge is the basics of Islam but every Muslim or convert struggling to find their iman needs to take this course as it removes much of ones doubts and most importantly it teaches one—though it's online—the adab and importance of a sheik, as taught in Islam.”
Sana Khalid
Student, Scarborough, Canada
“I would recommend this particular course to others because it clarifies so many questions we have on basic Islamic beliefs in a surprisingly simple and articulate way.”
Zeynep Sevinc
Teacher, Brisbane, Australia
“I enjoyed the course as it explained basic foundations of Islam and subjects I was unaware of.”

“This class has given me not only a compass by which to understand my religion, but a sound rationale for why my compass is correct. It has allowed me to overcome many obstacles pounded into my mind by popular university studies (if God is all powerful, can he do X sort of malarkey). But, most importantly of all, ALL Sunnipath classes, especially yours, have given me the opportunity to put a proper ORDER in what I'm learning. No longer am I busying myself with complicated matters of fiqh before I could even make a Sunnah prayer.”
