mashaa'Allah yeah, Yahya Ibrahim is mega cool! he has such earnestness. i love his lectures and i sure would love to meet him. yeah i heard hes in perth now. Bro Ahmed, do you know if he has moved to australia for good or is he just on a teachin contract there? a friend on mine visited the school hes at last month. it would be great if he comes to singapore for a lecture series or perhaps i shd write to one of the muslim bodies in singapore to arrange this, failing which, i should go down under!

asalaamu alaykum wr wb Br Uthmaan,

last time i spoke to him, Br Yahya mentioned that he didn't plan to stay in Perth long-term... he may go back to Canada or even move to Melbourne.... we're all hoping he'll return to NZ sometime soon :)

If you'd like to arrange for him to do a lecture tour in Singapore, I can get you in touch with the Br who arranged his tour to NZ... and perhaps you can get it done.... it doesn't require a big organisation to arrange tours, just a few dedicated bros and/or sisters...that was all it took for us in lil' ol' NZ.

oh and I think theres some of his audio lectures on the net at [url]www.iisna.com[/url]


wasalaam,

YAHYA IBRAHIM’S PROFILE

Yahya Adel Ibrahim is of Egyptian descent. He was born in Waterloo, Ontario - Canada - nearly a quarter of a century ago. He was raised in Toronto and has never lived for an extended period of time anywhere else. In his quest for authentic, classical Islamic knowledge he has traveled to meet and study with the most prominent scholars of our era. Being proficient in Arabic and English, he began translating for visiting Islamic dignitaries and has reached proficiency in simultaneously translating Arabic to English. He has translated for scholars and serious students of Islamic knowledge that visit the USA and Canada. Of his greatest personal achievements is memorizing the Quran in its entirety. He began memorizing at age 16 and finished 20 months later. He began lecturing at the main mosques in Toronto at the age 17 years old. He has been a consulting translator/editor for the IFTA office of the Saudi Embassy (Washington, D.C). He has translated and reviewed for them numerous articles, and the collection of Sermons that are/were delivered from the pulpit of Mecca's Grand Mosque (soon to be out in print). He has also translated three other classical works that will also be out in print in the near future. He has lectured in just about every US state, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia. He has advanced degrees in Geochemistry and Information Systems. He is also associated with Azhar University, Egypt.
