Arabic Etymology (Sarf)

Arabic Morphology (Sarf) is the science of word formation and etymology. These three foundational texts teach students the patterns and derivations of Arabic words, equipping them to understand and analyse classical Islamic literature at its roots.

الآجرومية

Al-Ajrumiyyah

Ibn Ajarrum al-Sanhaji (d. 723 AH / 1323 CE)

Arabic Syntax (Nahw)

The quintessential primer on Arabic grammar, studied in institutions across the Muslim world for over 700 years. It introduces sentence structure, parts of speech, and grammatical inflection in a concise and memorisable format that has proven indispensable as a gateway to classical Arabic.

العقيدة الطحاوية

Al-Aqeedah al-Tahawiyyah

Imam Abu Ja'far al-Tahawi (239–321 AH / 853–933 CE)

مراقي السعادات

Maraqi as-Saadaat

Abu al-Ikhlas al-Shurunbulali (d. 1069 AH / 1659 CE)

Islamic Creed (Aqida)

Islamic Creed ('Aqida) establishes the foundational beliefs of Sunni Islam. These two texts — one a concise summary of Hanafi theology and the other combining creed with practical jurisprudence — together provide students with a comprehensive grounding in orthodox Islamic doctrine.

الأربعين النووية

Al-Arba'een al-Nawawiyyah

Imam Yahya ibn Sharaf al-Nawawi (631–676 AH / 1234–1277 CE)

Hadith

A celebrated collection of forty prophetic traditions selected from the two Sahihs by one of Islam's most revered hadith scholars. Each hadith encapsulates a comprehensive principle of faith, ethics, or worship, making this collection an ideal introduction to the hadith tradition.

ترجمة القرآن الكريم وإعرابه

Qur'an Translation & I'rab

Qur'an

Students engage directly with the Quranic text through translation and grammatical analysis, building a direct relationship with the primary source of Islamic knowledge from the earliest stage of study. This provides the linguistic foundation for all future Quranic and legal studies.

السيرة النبوية

Seerah (Prophetic Biography)

Prophetic Biography (Seerah)

An introduction to the biography of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, covering his life, character, and the historical context of the revelation. Understanding the Seerah provides essential context for all subsequent studies in law, theology, and spiritual development.
