Shaykh Yahya Rhodus
Shaykh Yahya Rhodus is the Founding Director of Al-Maqasid, an Islamic seminary whose vision is to facilitate the realisation of Islam, Iman and Ihsan through immersion in the Prophetic Inheritance. His journey began at the traditional school of Murabit al-Hajj in the desert of Mauritania shortly after his conversion. His path of learning then led him to the acclaimed school Dar al-Mustafa in Tarim, where he received instruction from the renowned scholar and spiritual guide Habib Umar Bin Hafiz.
Shaykh Musab Penfound
Shaykh Mus’ab Penfound was born and raised in Manchester, England. After a two year journey, he entered Islam at the age of eighteen. He has received formal training through a classical syllabus based upon the formal Islamic sciences combined with the disciplines of inward purification. He has received scholastic permission and licences (ijazah) from leading traditional scholars and specialises Sacred law, the Sciences of Inward Purification and the biographical texts of the early pious Muslims and scholars.
