The Academy’s annual book club offers a semi-guided reading experience, bringing together a small group of up to 10 students to explore thought-provoking books within a set theme each year. Over the course of the year, we delve into three carefully selected books that align with the chosen theme, fostering deep discussions and reflective insights. Meetings are typically held on weekends, providing a relaxed yet intellectually stimulating environment where students can engage with the material and each other. Because this is a small group, each student is encouraged to share their perspectives. Given the diverse backgrounds of the participants, this leads to a stimulating environment where everyone can grow together through shared learning and dialogue. This book club is designed to enhance your understanding and appreciation of the intersection between Islamic thought and contemporary issues, offering a unique opportunity for personal and intellectual growth.
