إِنَّا نَحْنُ نـزلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ

“We Revealed the Quran (Zikr) and We Are for it to Shield.”

The Almighty said: “We revealed the Quran (Zikr) and We Are its protectors.”

إنًّا نزلنا الذكر وإنا له لحافظون

The Holy Quran was protected only by His will and by entrusting His Messenger to convey His message. Knowing that the Prophet was of great manners: “And you are of great good character.”

وإنك على خلق عظيم

The Message of Islam is maintained and prevailed to enlighten the world as the Prophet (PBUH) said: “I was sent to complete the good manners.”

إِنَّما بُعِثْتُ لِأُتَمِّمَ صالِحَ الأَخْلاقِ

Our purpose

A comprehensive Islamic education

Thirty years ago, Altaqwa Academy Foundation was set out to build an inspired future for Muslim students. The goal was to build a comprehensive Islamic education to its highest levels combined with the morals of our Prophet (PBUH).

Our Academy has fostered the education of many graduates, instilling faith, and a stringent academic curriculum. All graduates have gone on to university educations, and many more are taking part in a dynamic education.

Through its department Alforqan Quranic Learning Center, Altaqwa Academy implemented its special Quranic memorization program on all its students from Kindergarten to the highest school levels who are joined with other Muslim students from the public schools supplemented with special Qur’anic circles for adults.

إنهم فتية آمنوا بربهم وزدناهم

“THEY WERE YOUTHS WHO TRULY BELIEVED IN THEIR LORD, AND WE INCREASED THEM IN GUIDANCE.”

Allah (S) says in the Qur’an: “Invite ˹all˺ to the Way of your Lord with wisdom and kind advice, and only debate with them in the best manner. Surely your Lord ˹alone˺ knows best who has strayed from His Way and who is ˹rightly˺ guided” (16:125).

قال رسول الله (ص): ( إذَا مَاتَ الإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ إلاَّ مِنْ ثَلاَثٍ : صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ ، أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ ، أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ )

If a man dies, his work is interrupted except from three: a running handout, a knowledge that benefits him, or a good son who prays for him.
