• What is expected from students who learn with the School?

Students – may Allaah bless them – are expected to apply what they learn in their day to day lives. In other words, to bring Tarteeb of the Sahabat [the conduct of the companions (R)], into their lives, through their concern and mercy for all the creation of Allaah (T).

• Will the students be allowed to teach what they learn?

The students are always made aware from the first lesson that they ‘learn-to-teach’. However, they receive the required training and are under the professor’s guidance to be able to fulfil the other side of The School's mission that is ‘teach-to-learn’.

• Is there any light study for those who cannot commit themselves to successive levels of a subject?

Yes, quite a few, in different topics and subjects. More details can be found on the request from The School.
