Madressa Courses

At Jamea Al Kauthar, we aim to provide you with both Islamic and secular education.

The Islamic Theology course is condensed into 5/6 years. Both Urdu and Arabic languages are studied throughout the first three years due to majority of Islamic literature being written in these languages.

The final two years consist of an intense study of the Prophet's (PBUH) traditions, along with the study of the Islamic Jurisprudence and Tafseer (commentary of the Qur'an)

Alhamdulillah, in nine years 209 students have graduated as Aalimas (Islamic scholars).
