Welcome to
Faith Circle!

What began as a small gathering of dedicated students has grown into one of Brisbane’s most beloved weekly halaqas. Faith Circle offers a space to explore Islam that’s engaging, inclusive, and grounded in scholarship. Our mission is to connect hearts to Allah ﷻ through knowledge, community, and growth.

Join us every Thursday, 6:45PM at the Islamic College of Brisbane.

Current Series:

Dunya Delusions
Kitāb az Zuhd war Raqāʾiq

In a world overwhelmed by noise, wealth, status, indulgence, images, and fleeting pleasures, we are taught to chase shadows. The concept of Zuhd invites us to pause. To see with clarity. To turn away from the hollow and transient, and reorient our hearts toward what is eternal - Allah ﷻ.

We will be studing ʿAbdullāh ibn al-Mubārak’s Kitāb az-Zuhd wa’r-Raqāʾiq, the earliest extant book on self-discipline in Islam, a collection of Qur’ānic exegesis, prophetic traditions and anecdotes from the early generations that encourages rejection of this temporal world in favour of the eternal life of the Next World.
