curriculum

Six modules, from foundations to frontier.

Foundations of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah

The definition of fiqh and the development of Islamic jurisprudence, the primary and secondary sources of the Sharīʿah, and the objectives (maqāṣid) and principles that govern them.

~90 min

The Fiqh of Māl (money)

The Islamic concept of wealth; riba, gharar and maysir; the core contracts (ʿuqūd, bayʿ, ijāra, mushārakah, muḍārabah, qarḍ ḥasan); and wealth distribution — zakat, sadaqah, waqf and farāʾiḍ.

~90 min

Introduction to blockchain technology

How blockchains, tokens and digital ownership actually work — the technology demystified so a fiqh analysis has something concrete to stand on.

~90 min

Cryptocurrencies through an Islamic lens

Intrinsic value and asset-backing, zakat on digital assets, and the question of financial inclusion.

~90 min

Screening a digital asset

Apply the framework to live examples, learn to reason about a new asset yourself, and see where scholars legitimately differ.

~90 min

Hedging, DeFi, staking & stablecoins

The hard cases — hedging, decentralised finance, staking yield and stablecoin models under a Shariah lens.

~90 min

// each episode ends with 8 multiple-choice questions, a live Q&A, and a certificate on completion.

What the series is built to give you.

Rooted understanding

The maqāṣid, the sources, and the fiqh of māl — so your view of money is built on evidence, not slogans.

Independent judgement

Screen a digital asset yourself, understand where scholars differ, and know which questions to take to a scholar.

Practical discipline

Zakat, purification, risk and sizing — a personal framework you can actually keep after the last episode.

faq

Masterclass questions.

Is it live or on-demand? +

On-demand. All six modules are pre-recorded so you can start immediately and watch at your own pace, with lifetime access. Questions are answered in the member community and monthly group calls.

Do I need any background? +

No. We start from foundations and build up. Whether you're new to crypto or already trading, the series meets you where you are.

Will it give me a fatwa or a ruling? +

It teaches you the reasoning and the scholarly landscape so you understand the issues deeply. For a binding personal ruling, you'll be pointed to the right process — we teach, we don't hand out blanket fatwas.

Is this financial advice? +

No. It's education in Islamic finance and the fiqh of transactions. We never recommend specific assets, and crypto carries real risk — you can lose money.
