Our Mission

Knowledge that shapes character

To provide a broad and balanced Islamic education within an Islamic environment that will benefit our learners and the community in this world and in the Hereafter.

Above all, we aim to instil good character and qualities that make them practical Muslims, following the Sunnah of Nabi Muhammad (s.a.w) for the pleasure of Allah (swt).

Our Motto

Learn · Practice · Propagate

Learn

Students study the Qur'an, Hadith, Fiqh and Arabic under qualified ustaads in a nurturing boarding environment.

Practice

Knowledge becomes action through daily salaah, adab and service, building practical Muslims of good character.

Propagate

Graduates return home as imams, teachers and leaders, carrying the light of deen to their own communities.

Our Maktabs

16 centres, one mission

16 centres across the East Rand, Mpumalanga, Malawi, Zanzibar and Mozambique, teaching children the basics of deen close to home.
