 register.html\n\n_"I have been fortunate enough to attend some of the clas
 ses given by Dr Mohammed Akram Nadwi in Oxford\, Cambridge and London\, an
 d I would certainly recommend them to anyone seeking to increase their und
 erstanding of the sciences of Islam. Dr Akram's knowledge is both broad an
 d deep\, his training is traditional\, his presentation is lively and rele
 vant to our lives today\, and one feels that his intention is truly to rai
 se the level of every Muslim. His work on the women scholars of Islam is t
 imely and inspirational\, revealing the little-known fact that many thousa
 nds of women scholars were involved in developing and maintaining the trad
 ition of scholarship in Islam. This was the case right from the earliest c
 ommunity in Madina until only about 200 years ago. Dr Akram makes sure tha
 t his knowledge is accessible to all seekers\, regardless of gender\, in t
 he most correct and generous way\, and his courses thus contribute to rest
 oring a balance and harmony. The courses planned for Cambridge are an oppo
 rtunity not to be missed!" - Aziza Spiker\, Cambridge_\n\nCambridge Islami
