Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the program?
The program can be completed in one year if students enroll in both DISA and DISB tracks simultaneously. Alternatively, the program can be completed part-time over two years by taking one set of classes (either DISA or DISB) per year. Please see the course catalog for details on the different classes offered under DISA and DISB.
Do I have to take all the classes?
No, students have the flexibility to take as few as one class at a time and work progressively toward completing the program. What certification will I receive upon completing the course? Students who successfully complete both DISA and DISB tracks will be awarded a Diploma in Islamic Studies (DIS). This certification serves as a prerequisite for enrollment in our Advanced Islamic Studies (AIS) Curriculum the details of which will be forthcoming on the website in sha Allah.

The DISA and DISB classes are specifically designed for individuals who are at the early stages of their Islamic studies journey. The courses begin with foundational concepts and gradually advance to more complex topics.
How is your course different from other courses?
Our goal is to provide a curriculum that allows for practical application of the traditional sciences. We focus heavily on making sure that students are ready to handle the challenges of everyday life on their Iman after graduating from this course. We will provide guidance throughout the course to foster a student’s academic, spiritual, and personal growth.
Will recordings be available?
While in-person attendance is mandatory, we understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise. Recordings of the classes will be made available to registered students.
What if I am unable to pay the tuition?
We are dedicated to ensuring that financial hardship does not prevent anyone from enrolling in our courses. Students are encouraged to contribute whatever they can and to contact us at info@kufah.org for further assistance. If you are interested in sponsoring a student, please reach out to info@kufah.org.
I have studied somewhere else for 1+ years. Do you have any options for advanced students?
If you feel that you have completed portions of the DISA and DISB curriculum elsewhere, please reach out to info@kufah.org. If there is enough interest, we are hoping to provide a few of our AIS offerings part time to a select group of students.
