Darul Hidayah Information

Darul Hidayah is an independent, non-profit organization that was established by a group of scholars as an Islamic educational initiative for adult students. Its goal is to help connect the NY/NJ Muslim community to traditional Islamic knowledge and reliable scholarship while also increasing the demand for authentic learning amongst Muslim students and professionals. Utilizing the skills, experience, and knowledge of traditionally-trained, and highly motivated scholars, Darul Hidayah focuses on the development and improvement of Islamic programs that are relevant and accessible to today's Muslims. Our goal is to empower all Muslims with the blessed knowledge of the Quran and Sunnah so that they can live as upright citizens who fully understand their responsibilities as students of knowledge, seekers of spiritual purification, and disseminators of the faith. Our courses, while focused on the application and relevance of Islamic texts to the modern context, never attempt to sacrifice content in the process. Instructors challenge students to develop the skills necessary to understand the application of the Quran and Sunnah into their own individual context. Perhaps most importantly, Darul Hidayah's courses offer an adult accelerated-learning Islamic studies initiative that caters to the needs of a cross-section of society that has long been neglected. We offers courses for serious adults and maintain a flexible schedule so as to accommodate the busy lives of working adults and full-time high-school or college students. This includes our Weekend Alim Course, which is an intensive Islamic studies program that puts students on the path towards Islamic scholarship. In addition, our Essentials Courses provide an opportunity for students to gain knowledge that allows them to live their lives according to the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah and to gain a deeper understanding of their faith.
