Testimonials for Prophetic Conduct: October 2010
“Mufti Muhammad ibn Adam is an intimate speaker whose discourse shows gentleness and the simple yet comprehensive beauty of Islam. Allah has blessed him with such an ability, as He has also blessed him with an incredible character. The fact that I learned just as much in the classroom setting, as by observing his interactions with people, is a testament to such a character. Although the time he spent here in Ottawa was limited, the Mufti gave us a great introduction to the vast topic of adab in Islam.”
“The Shayk conveyed the message very clearly and with much evidence from the Qur’an and the Sunnah. His sense of humour also kept our ears open and our mind focusing. It is highly recommended to come to this seminar because guaranteed there will be no regrets!”
“It was a well needed talk that covered aspects that most Muslims seem to neglect.”
“Lecture was well worth the time. I feel that i learned a lot from this seminar and the instructor himself. Information given was very useful and practical in day to day life.”
“Hamdulilallah it was very beneficial, exactly what I needed to freshen my iman, as well as being a whole better person. I have already applied some of the teachings and I feel fresh again like a baby.”
Testimonials for Heavenly Companionshop: February 2010
“A very informative seminar. Learned lots that I didn’t know, alhamdulillah. Even though I am not in a relationship yet, I felt it covered the basics in terms of how I should start the process and pursue it.”
“I really enjoyed it since I’m newly married. I learned a lot of things. I was especially impressed by the open and candid nature of the discussion. The sheikh spoke frankly about topics like sex and contraception and how to maintain chastity and ways to look for a spouse. Finally, a properly educated scholar familiar with the western way of life and the challenges one faces as a young muslim in North American society. I’d have to say that this was one of the most enjoyable and relavent lectures I attended. Practical knowledge of Islam and how to live it.
“I think these type of courses should be mandatory for everyone planning on getting married.”
“I was really impressed with how comprehensive the course was! It is a class that married and single muslims must attend!”
“Sheikh Nazim is a great speaker, when he adds his personal touch to a topic everyone is all ears and we just want him to keep talking!”

“The Unifying Belief — 2009 was an informative and timely workshop organized in Ottawa. The scholars were well versed in Islamic Sciences and offered the mainstream knowledge of Creed. The scholars did full justice towards explaining Imam Tahawi’s (R. A.) text with wisdom. The young volunteers of Seekers of Virtue worked tirelessly in bringing this event to fruition. May Allah T’aala give them the choicest Ajr, Amin! I look forward to more such events in Ottawa.” – Workshop attendee

“Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His final messenger Muhammed. The Annual youth tarbiyah conference at Ottawa Islamic Center was a great experience in recalling the important role the Sunnah of the Prophet S.A.W. plays in our lives. As a testimony, I would just like to recall a verse of Allah S.W.T, that He created people and jinn for nothing else but to worship Him. Hence, as the first Shaykh at the conference mentioned, Islam is a complete way of life with acts even as minor as going to the washroom being well explained in the Sunnah. Hence, executing our actions with the right intentions and according to the Sunnah make them an act of worship, which is inline with the purpose of our creation, and that is one thing vital, I got out of this conference.” – YTC attendee
