Shaykh Saad al Attas
Abu Shu`ayb Sa`d Peters al-`Attas, a South African with
roots extending to Yemen.
He is a grandson of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace).
He graduated from the Shari`a institute run by the Tahdhib
wa Ta`lim endowment in Damascus,
Syria. He
was in the four year, accelerated program. His studies there included the
following: Arabic, `Ulum al-quran, Usul al-tafsir, Hadith, Aqidah, Fiqh
(Shafi`i and some comparative), Usul al-Fiqh, Sira (fiqh al-sira, sirat of
the Khulifa al-Rashidin), Mantiq, and Khitaba.
His graduation thesis involved an extensive commentary on
the hadiths concerning al-amr bi-l-ma`ruf wa al-nahi `an al-munkar. He
defended his thesis and passed his oral examinations in `aqidah and fiqh,
conducted by Shaykh `Abd al-`Aziz al-Khatib, the imam of Jami`
al-Darwishiya and director of the school.
Outside of this institute Sa`d concentrated on Shafi`i fiqh.
He read with Shaykh Hussayn Darawish for three years. During that time he
completed Zakariya al-Ansari's Tuhfat al-Tulab with most of al-Sharqawi's
marginal notes. He also completed nearly the first third of the same
author's Fath al-Wahhab with additional notes from al-Bujayrami's marginal
notes. While doing this he also read al-Shirazi's al-Tanbih with
al-Suyuti's commentary, Sharh al-Yaqut al-Nafis, portions of al-Suyuti's
al-Ashbah wa al-Natha'ir, I`yanat al-Talibin, and others.
He moved
to Keighley in Ramadan 2003 and to Bradford
this year where he currently resides with his wife and five children.
