The monthly live Q&A

How the live Q&A works

Once the course opens, it has one live Q&A a month, about 45 to 60 minutes in the evening. The dates are announced when it opens.

  1. Watch the lessons

    All four lessons open together, so you can finish them before the session.

  2. Send your question

    Send it from your course portal, before the session.

  3. Screened in advance

    The team reads every question first, and the Shariah board approves any ruling before the session. Nothing is improvised live.

  4. Live, or later

    Join live, or watch the recording in your course. Missed it? You are first in line for next month.

What do I owe?

Four short lessons, one worksheet and a live Q&A every month, opening with Wave 3. Join early access to hear when it opens.
