Siraj Institute

Siraj Institute provides a comprehensive program for adult Muslims of any age to strengthen their Muslim identity, deepen their Islamic knowledge, and train them to bring a positive change in their communities. The program focuses on building a strong Muslim identity as a prerequisite to delving into Islamic sciences. We also believe that mentorship is a required scaffolding in the learning process to verify proper understanding. Finally, we strongly advocate that knowledge without implementation is like a barren tree, hence we provide community service opportunities as practicums for all our students.
Siraj students learn Arabic (both proficiency and literature), Islamic history, beliefs and manners then work on deepening their knowledge of the Quran, Hadeeth, Fiqh, and their related disciplines. They learn manners as they memorize the Quran. Teachers ask open ended questions, and involve students in discussions pertaining to real world problems.
