Philosophy
The philosophy of the University was inspired by the recommendations of the first World Conference on Muslim Education held in Mecca in A.H. 1398/ A.D 1977. The spirit of this philosophy is based on the Holy Qur'an, in particular the five verses revealed to the Prophet Muhammad S.A.W., namely Al-Alaq, verses 1-5 :





​

 

 


​

​

1. Read! In the name of the thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created
2. Created man, out of a leech-like clot :
3. Read! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful
4. He Who taught (the use of) the Pen
5. Taught man that which he knew not

 

​

According to this philosophy, knowledge shall be propagated in the spirit of Tawhid, leading towards the recognition of Allah as the Absolute Creator and Master of mankind.
