The Cambridge Islamic Studies programmes offered by Abu Hanifah Foundation are among the most sought-after online Islamic courses available today. Designed for learners aged 13 and above, these small-group classes provide an exceptional opportunity to study Islam formally, in English, from the comfort of your home.
Although there is great interest and demand is high, class sizes have been deliberately limited to deliver more focused sessions and maximise learning. Early registration is essential to avoid disappointment.
These courses are built on academic credibility, Islamic authenticity, and global recognition—combining traditional scholarship with the internationally respected Cambridge IGCSE and A Level syllabi.
