Bayyinah Institute is the brainchild of Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan, a pioneering, influential American Muslim who grew up in New York City, with the aim of spreading the universal message of Islam.
Founded in 2005, Bayyinah is currently based in Dallas, Texas. The institute’s mission is to make learning the Arabic language and the study of the Quran accessible worldwide in a way that is innovative, accesible, and approachable.
Bayyinah’s founder believes that using modern technology and cutting-edge educational tools is key to encouraging an appreciation of the Quran and the Arabic language for those who want to improve themselves by drawing nearer to Allah through study.
To make this vision a reality, Bayyinah offers a variety of full-time, part-time and self-paced learning programs with professional scholars and specialists. Bayyinah leverages the power of media to deliver high quality content, teaching texts to thousands of male and female students from all walks of life, across the globe.
Established in 2017, IQRA Network is an online school for Arabic, Quran, and Islamic studies.
Three dedicated individuals, each with unique expertise, came together to fill a need that was missing in the West. Dr. Fahd Albinali, a former MIT scientist, Dr.Hussein Babsail, an academic from Tufts, and Sh. Muhammad Yousef, an accomplished graduate of Quran and Islamic Studies from the prestigious Al-Azhar University in Egypt.
The team connected esteemed teachers and scholars of Quran, Arabic, and Islamic Studies with Muslim families wanting the best Islamic education for their children.
Now with 2k+ students, 200+ teachers, 50+ staff, the founders are all Board members, committed to securing IQRA for future generations.
