Overview
Jamia Siraj Ul Uloom operates two Alimiyyah courses:
- Brothers’ Alimiyyah Course
- Sisters’ Alimah Course
The courses are designed to give pupils an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of the higher Islamic sciences.
The Courses are grounded in the study of classical core texts and subjects, and enriched with a balanced, contemporary approach.
The courses seek to embed in students authentic knowledge and understanding of the higher Islamic sciences in an environment that cultivates their spiritual and intellectual growth, while paying due attention to tarbiyah and the classical tradition through which sacred knowledge has been passed down over the centuries; from heart to heart.
The courses strive to create exemplary role models who will go on as qualified Ulama (scholars) to industriously serve humanity.
The courses prepare students to become upright and model citizens of modern Britain and of the world that we all share. The courses create within pupils the aptitude to become Imams, teachers, administrators of institutions, academic researchers, writers, and individuals who are conscious of their responsibilities to their Creator and the creation.
Upon graduation, students may also choose to pursue specialised studies in Fiqh (Ifta), Hadith (Takhassus fil Hadith), Tafseer (Takhassus fit Tafseer), and/or other sciences.
Students are encouraged to pursue secular knowledge/skills during/or upon completion of their course to aid them in contextualising their knowledge.
