Islamic Studies
Islam is not simply a belief, but a complete way of life for Muslims. To understand the message of Almighty Allah and the teachings of His final messenger prophet Muhammed (PBUH) is the most important aspect of the Islamic faith. That is why we do not only recite the Quran without relating or reflecting on it, as required by Allah.
At Arabic Institute of Britain, we believe that providing Islamic education allows the right knowledge of Islam to be taught to students. This will include the following subjects:
Aqeedah: It covers the basic core beliefs of the Islamic religion, the beliefs that distinguish Muslims from other religions
Fiqh: This is known as (jurisprudence), which relates to the day-to-day practical aspects of Islam which enable Muslims to worship Allah in the manner He requires us to worship him. Students will learn the method of worship, the requirements, and what would validate or invalidate them.
Akhlaaq: is an Arabic term referring to the practice of virtue, morality and good manners, and character in Islam. In simple words, we can say that Akhlaaq is basically the ethics, good conduct, and moral character of a person
General Islamic Education: Islamic education refers to the academic study of Islam, and generally to academic multidisciplinary studies program
