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)
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.
In 2017, Miftaah Institute was established to empower and educate Islamic values within the lens of the Prophetic teachings of unity and mercy. We strive to make our programs accessible and approachable for college students and professionals that aspire to enhance their knowledge and spirituality. Miftaah is based out of Warren, Michigan and offers a rich transformational journey of learning Classical Arabic, Quranic literature, and Prophetic tradition in an inclusive environment.
