Madrasah history

By the mercy of Allah, Al Madrasah Al Ibtidaiyyah starting with a set syllabus for children to learn their Deen in the way taught to us by our beloved Prophet Muhammad, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him.

In our community there was a pressing and urgent need for such an establishment where young Muslim children can get the opportunity to study the glorious Qur’an and be able to read it with its correct pronunciation of the prestigious Arabic letters together with its rules and principles, which is known as Ilmut Tajweed.', '

It is our firm conviction that this Madrasah will be one of its like in Birmingham which aims to teach children with a systematic syllabus within a five year framework in the English language and cover a wide range of Islamic subjects namely; fundamentals of Islam, beliefs, prayer, self- purity, morals, manners, Tajweed, Ahadith, Qur’anic stories etc all under our fully qualified, respected and revered Ulama.

We are striving for our younger generation, who are growing up in this environment, to begin to understand and appreciate the deep message of the Qur’an. This will allow their Imaan to grow, develop, flourish and generate within them the awareness of their Deen, the Shar’iah and its guidance and be able to understand the reason for its implementation throughout their lives thus engendering in them a strong desire to do good deeds for the Hereafter.

Furthermore we aim to uplift our children’s morals and manners and instil in them the love of the Sunnah so that our children become a reflection of the Sunnah and its embodiment. We want to create within our children the desire and thirst to seek the knowledge of the Glorious Qur’an and the illustrious Ahadith.
