'Aalimiyyah Degree

Path to Accreditation

Turath Institute offers this traditional Ijazah over a 4 course of study.

This degree is an accredited Ijazah, under traditional and religious authority. However, it is not accredited by the QAA in the UK, nor does Turath Institute have Degree-Awarding Powers (DAP).

Part of our strategic outlook include seeking validation of our degree with a recognised university, and thereafter applying for direct DAP.
