Arabi Islamic Studies in Palembang
Palembang is the oldest city in Indonesia and the capital of South Sumatra, where the Musi River divides the city into the Ilir and Ulu areas, both holding a long heritage of Islamic tradition. Around the Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin Grand Mosque in the city center, the Islamic life of Palembang has been felt strongly since the era of the Palembang Darussalam Sultanate. Across the river, the Al-Munawar Arab Quarter in the 13 Ulu area stands as a long witness to the tradition of learning the Quran and Arabic among families of Arab descent in Palembang. From Ilir Barat and Bukit Besar to Plaju and Seberang Ulu, neighborhood mosques, madrasahs, and majelis taklim serve as familiar spaces for Muslim families in Palembang to learn their faith. For this reason, learning Islamic Studies in Palembang feels like a continuation of a tradition that has long lived among the people of this city.

Stories from Islamic Studies Students
4.9From 34 learner and guardian reviews
I used to feel unsure about many small matters in worship. Now my ustadz explains the proof one point at a time with patience, and I feel far more at ease in my salah and my fasting.
I started learning aqidah and fiqh from the basics at 38. The language is easy, there is room to ask, and every topic ends with a plan for action that I put into practice at home right away.
The online class helps so much between work hours. The sirah and hadith material is presented in an engaging way, there is a digital summary each session, and the schedule can fall in the evening.
