One idea per screen
Lessons move a single concept at a time — a definition, an articulation point, a condition of authenticity — with room to read it properly before anything is asked of you.
Ijazah Institute
The classical sciences, learned one idea at a time.
Tajwid, hadith terminology, and fiqh with its legal theory — taught the way they are actually taught: slowly, precisely, and with the disagreements left in.
The curriculum
Three courses, 51 lessons
Beginner
Quran Recitation & Readings
The practical science of reciting the Qur’an as it was received: the articulation points of the letters, the rulings of nun sakinah and tanwin, the prolongations, and an orientation to the canonical readings. Written for a student who can already decode Arabic script but has never been taken through tajwid systematically.
Intermediate
Hadith Terminology
Muṣṭalaḥ al-Ḥadīth — the critical vocabulary the scholars built to describe, grade and test prophetic reports. Isnād and matn, the five conditions of a ṣaḥīḥ ḥadīth, ḥasan and ḍaʿīf, tawātur against āḥād, and the hidden defects that only the specialists could see.
Advanced
Fiqh & Usul al-Fiqh
How Islamic law is actually derived. The five rulings and their categories, the agreed sources — Qur’an, Sunna, ijmāʿ, qiyās — the contested ones such as istiḥsān and maṣlaḥa, the objectives of the law, and the distinct methodologies of the four Sunni schools presented side by side rather than one at a time.
How it works
Built for understanding, not for scores
The explanation is the lesson
Every question reveals its reasoning after you answer, right or wrong. The point is never the tick; it is understanding why the other options fail.
Disagreement, stated plainly
Where the four schools differ, the lesson says so and gives each position its actual argument. You are being taught a discipline, not a party line.
Your work is never lost
Progress is kept in your browser from the first lesson and saved to your account the moment you sign in — including a session you started on any other Islamic Research Network site.
A note on what this is
An ijāzah is a licence to transmit, granted by a teacher who has heard you recite or read back what they taught you. It cannot be issued by a website, and this one does not pretend otherwise.
What these courses give you is the map: the vocabulary, the categories, and the reasoning, so that when you sit with a teacher you already know what you are being corrected on.
