MOHAMMED MEKIN MOHAMMED

About

As a researcher and academic specializing in the Prophetic Sunnah and its sciences, my professional journey combines authentic scholarly grounding, diverse academic exposure, and field experience in Islamic call (Da'wah) and education. I began my education in Ethiopia before receiving a scholarship to Al-Azhar Al-Sharif in Cairo—where I was among the first wave of international scholarship students—completing my high school education and subsequently earning a Bachelor’s degree in Sharia and Law. I furthered my academic pursuits with a scholarship at the Islamic University of Madinah, ultimately crowning my academic journey by earning both my Master’s and Ph.D. degrees in the Prophetic Sunnah and Its Sciences from the Islamic University of Minnesota (Main Campus). Currently, I am engaged in teaching Islamic sciences and delivering lectures and sermons in the Tigray region of northern Ethiopia. I aim to leverage this cumulative academic and educational experience by joining the faculty of my alma mater, the Islamic University of Minnesota (Main Campus), to contribute to serving students of knowledge and fulfilling the University's noble mission.
