Abdullah Hakim Quick - Do Not Ignore History
About this lecture
As the Gaza genocide and utter destruction continues, Shaykh Abdullah gives a historical reminder to the believers that this is not the first time such atrocities have occurred in that land. And yet the Muslims have never given up.
Shaykh Abdullah Hakim Quick, PhD, is the Head of our Islamic History and Homiletics Department.

He pursued his study of Islam at the Islamic University of Madinah in Saudi Arabia where he graduated and received an Ijaza from the College of Da’wah and Islamic Sciences in 1979, one of first two students to do so from the West.
