BUILD A FOUNDATION IN ISLAMIC STUDIES
We invite all Hifz Students and those who have not completed Matric to join us in the study of the core Islamic Sciences.
Madina Methodology
Our teaching methodology is unique in its process to teach students the variety of viewpoints within the bounds of Ahl’ Sunnah. This approach provides students with an unbiased understanding of many schools of thought.
At Madina, we believe in providing knowledge and information, not indoctrinating a particular point of view. This results in a well-rounded seeker of knowledge.
We believe in bringing the best scholars to the students, without requiring the students to travel the world to seek the knowledge they crave. Each student has the opportunity to interact with, and study under, scholars in a variety of fields from all across the world.
Objectives
The objective of the Foundational Islamic Studies Program is to ensure that everyone has a strong basic understanding of their faith based on the Quran and Authentic Sunnah.
Curriculum
Al Quran
This encompasses Ulum al-Quran (sciences of the Quran) and Tajwid (recitation). These subjects include study of nature, preservation, historical timeline, context, occasions of revelation, style and recitation of revelation.
Hadith
This includes the study of the terminologies and methodologies to understand and evaluate the Hadith literature that encompass the records of purported actions, statements, and descriptions of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family). It includes Seerah (Prophetic Biography) – the life of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family), providing insight into the mannerisms, ethics, and teachings from the prophetic life, as well as Tarikh (Islamic History), which covers the early formative period of Islam focusing on the four rightly guided caliphs and modern developments.
Imaniyat
This entails a study of Aqidah (Theology) – the Islamic beliefs regarding the Divine Oneness and attributes of Allah (Tawheed), the Prophets, and the unseen; and Tazkiya (Purification of the Heart) – the practical aspects of spirituality bound by the Quran and authentic Sunnah.
Fiqh
This is the study of Islamic law as it pertains to the life of a Muslim. From the integrals of prayer to the proper conduct of a financial transaction, Fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence) provides insight into living according to the commands of Allah. We also cover Usul Al Fiqh (Legal Theory), which includes the principles upon which Islamic jurisprudence is derived; and explores the origins, proofs, and modes of deriving rulings.
