Miftaah Institute

Miftaah Institute aims to provide a space for Muslims to teach and learn in a sacred manner, preserving the practice of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and His beloved companions. Through this work, Miftaah Institute hopes to prepare future leaders to preserve and serve this sacred religion in their communities.

"Allah ﷻ blesses the face of that individual who listens to my narrations, protects, and preaches it to others". (Al-Tirmidhi)

عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ رسول الله صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَحَفِظَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ
Our Vision Statement
Miftaah Institute graduates will not only be recognized as distinguished leaders who understand sacred texts like the Holy Qur’an and Hadith, but they will also be living examples of the virtues and manners of Islam amongst their communities.
Approach
The Prophet Muhammed ﷺ stated: "Glad tidings to that individual who becomes a miftaah (key) towards good and a lock towards evil." (Sunan Ibn Majah)

عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ هَذَا الْخَيْرَ خَزَائِنُ وَلِتِلْكَ الْخَزَائِنِ مَفَاتِيحُ فَطُوبَى لِعَبْدٍ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِفْتَاحًا لِلْخَيْرِ مِغْلاَقًا لِلشَّرِّ وَوَيْلٌ لِعَبْدٍ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِفْتَاحًا لِلشَّرِّ مِغْلاَقًا لِلْخَيْرِ ‏‏

Miftaah Institute aims to be an educational platform where people have the opportunity to develop themselves as keys for the spreading of divine knowledge. Here they can learn or teach this knowledge, how to act upon it, and emerge as inspirational leaders. Hence, at Miftaah Institute we undertake this philosophy on education:
‍
1) Educate: Pursue knowledge
2) Preserve: Protect knowledge by practicing upon it
3) Application: Educate and empower others

Miftaah Institute offers a rich exploration of Arabic literacy. Many students have a zeal to pursue sacred knowledge, however, their responsibilities and obligations may hinder them in this goal. We at Miftaah recognize this dilemma, that’s why we have provided a diverse set of educational programs tailored for those with other obligations and hectic schedules. Whether it be online coursework, part-time studies on campus, or intensive courses in the summer or winter, we hope to provide options for everyone.
