Halaqah

Text Size:
Halaqah is an Arabic term meaning "Circle." It refers to a religious gathering or study circle where Muslims sit together-often in a literal circle-to study the Quran, Hadith, or Islamic jurisprudence. The "circle" format symbolizes equality and community, where knowledge is shared and discussed in an atmosphere of mutual respect. Halaqahs are a foundational part of Islamic education and social life, fostering brotherhood and sisterhood (Ukhuwwah) while allowing for the continuous spiritual and intellectual growth of the participants. They are often held in mosques, schools, or private homes.
