Reviews
Stories from Islamic Studies Students
4.9From 34 parent reviews
I used to be unsure about many small matters in worship. Now my ustadz explains the proof one by one with patience, and I feel more at ease performing my salah and fasting.
I began learning aqidah and fiqh from the basics at age 38. The language is easy, there is room to ask, and every topic has a plan for action that I apply right away at home.
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 be in the evening.
