Author Details
Name: Shaykh Muhammad Afifi al-Akiti
Muhammad Afifi al-Akiti was born in Malaysia and was educated from a young age in the classical Islamic sciences at scholastic madrasas of East Java with a long tradition in Shafi'i jurisprudence. Among the best known authorities with whom he studied were the jurists, theologians and Sufis: Imam al-Fadani, Shaykh Ibn Mahfuz al-Hajini, and Habib 'Aydarus al-Habshi. He has travelled widely; and in addition to the specific licenses to teach (ijazas) from his systematic training, he has also received general ijazas from teachers beyond his homeland, especially in Morocco and the Middle East. Shaykh Afifi is presently a Research Fellow in Islamic Theology at the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies and teaches at Oxford University. His doctoral thesis investigates a newly discovered medieval manuscript of an advanced theological work by Islam's greatest theologian, Imam al-Ghazali
