What the school is doing.
Notices go out here first: which intensive opens next, what was read in the ones before it, and how the zāwiyah is coming along.

The fourth winter intensive
West Cairo again, 6 to 16 January 2027, with Shaykh Yūsuf b. Ṣādiq al-Ḥanbalī: six hours of lessons and two hours of reading a day. The fee is £549 excluding flights, and places are few, so interest is registered in advance.
