Visiting Scholars

Zaytuna’s Exclusive Enrichment Series

The Arabic Enrichment Series offers students additional workshops and presentations by highly respected, nationally recognized guest scholars. The series provides a historical and sociocultural context for the Arabic language and inspires students to deepen their appreciation of the rich history and enduring culture of Arabic. Along with these lectures, Zaytuna ensures that extended Q&A sessions give students an unparalleled opportunity to benefit from these established scholars. In 2008, the series included such prominent scholars as Dr. Sulayman Nyang of Howard University, Dr. Kenneth Honerkamp of the University of Georgia, Dr. Hatem Bazian of UC–Berkeley, as well as Zaytuna’s own scholars, Imam Zaid Shakir and Shaykh Hamza Yusuf.
