Spiritual Reform

Purification of the Heart

"Behold! It is the heart…"

While much attention is given to the health of our physical heart, the Prophet ﷺ instructed us to be no less concerned for the spirituality of our hearts. The Qur'an and prophetic tradition discuss extensively the conditions of the heart — what affects it, the diseases that gradually overwhelm it, and the cures.

This course addresses the issues of the heart: its health, its diseases, the symptoms and causes of those sicknesses, and the means of treatment.
