Meet Dr. Mariam Sheibani, a globally recognized scholar of Islam who is passionate about public education and community building.
I am a scholar of Islamic thought and practice who is committed to engaging key issues facing Muslims and Muslim communities.
I offer paradigms and frameworks for coherently integrating religious commitment with lived experience.
My educational and training programs empower participants to analyze critical issues, co-construct solutions to shared challenges, and offer practical tools for cultivating a meaningful God-centered spiritual life.
The educational spaces I facilitate draw on two decades of training in the classical Islamic sciences and graduate training at the University of Chicago and Harvard Law School. My courses bring together the best of academic and historical approaches to contemporary challenges, combined with a nuanced and scholarly understanding of Islamic tradition, and delivered through an engaging, application-oriented, and discussion-based approach.
By delivering accessible, relevant, and research-based courses and trainings to individuals, communities, and organizations, I offer new understandings of the past, present, and future of Muslim thought, practice, and community.
