alright so i started out this new community, MartinLingsSira.

Most of us are currently in the beginning of our winter break and have about 3 to 4 weeks before school starts up again and so the purpose of starting up this community is to encourage all of us to read this wonderful book during this break.  Usually

As-salamu alaykum!

I looked up who else had Sh. Hamza Yusuf listed in their interests and found your journal. I'm always on the lookout for sympatico brothers on LJ; the communities tend to attract the people who shout the loudest, subhanallah.

Have you heard the Shaykh's audio series reading Lings's book? It's a fabulous commentary, including details from other sira literature and correcting or clarifying the few places in the text that are out of alignment with tradtion.
