Why Madina?

Insha’Allah you’ll find that the Madina experience is:

  • Student White board-Authentic: Based on the Quran and the authentic Sunnah, i.e. based on the non-dogmatic methods of the Salaf, using modern technology and offering an open academic atmosphere open to questions and critique
  • Academic: Experienced faculty from Al-Azhar, Syria, Madina and beyond, teaching you skills in critical study and academic research to actively engage and develop student-scholars.
  • Accessible: Rigorous courses give you access to extensive time in the company of scholars, and to knowledge that many travel the whole world to seek.
  • Applicable: Provides opportunities for holistic (ritual & spiritual) and functional education premised on Islamic leadership coupled with intensive Arabic studies so one can engage the classical texts.
  • Approved: The Madina Institute has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Islamic University of Sudan (January 2016) and is currently working on doing so with Al-Qarawiyyin University in Morocco. This allows for further formal cooperation between the institutions, including student & teacher exchange, and accreditation.
