Arabic Foundations is designed for complete beginners. The Arabic Language Programme builds on previous study, while Alimiyyah and Dawrah have further entry requirements. Sanatayn offers an English-language route into the Islamic sciences. Each course explains its starting point.
Our part-time routes are designed around existing responsibilities. They still require regular attendance, preparation and practice. Check each programme’s days, times and weekly commitment before deciding.
