History of Islam

The course covers 1,400 years of Islamic history — starting with Pre-Islamic Arabia, then the life of the Prophet ﷺ, the Rightly Guided Caliphs, the Umayyad and Abbasid dynasties, the golden age of Islamic civilization, and the modern Muslim world. All taught from authentic sources.

Yes! The course is designed for all ages. For children, our teachers use stories of the Prophets, Companions, and key events in an age-appropriate way that keeps them engaged. Adults get the same content with deeper analysis.

No prior knowledge is required. The course starts from the very beginning — Pre-Islamic Arabia — and builds up step by step. Whether you're hearing these stories for the first time or revisiting them, you'll learn something new.

The full course is designed to be completed in 6 months at 30-minute daily sessions, 5 days a week. That said, students can take it slower or faster depending on their pace — there's no pressure to finish by a certain date.

We use only authentic classical sources — works like Ibn Hisham's Seerah, Al-Tabari's History, Ibn Kathir's Al-Bidaya wa'l-Nihaya, and other trusted scholarly works. Modern references are used carefully and always cross-checked against classical texts.

Yes — the Seerah is a central part of the course. You'll study the Prophet's ﷺ life in depth: birth, childhood, revelation, the Makkan and Madinan periods, all the major battles, treaties, and the final sermon. If you want an even deeper dive just on the Seerah, check out our dedicated Seerat un Nabi course.

Absolutely. We offer both male and female teachers. You can choose your preferred teacher during booking, and if you'd like to switch at any point, just let us know — we'll accommodate.
