Our 3-year course offers quality Islamic education
At the Zia Ul Ummah Foundation, we are proud to offer a comprehensive 3-year course that provides underprivileged children in Pakistan with high-quality Islamic education.
We understand that many children from low-income backgrounds may not have access to free education and are often limited to traditional religious schools. Our program aims to bridge that gap by providing students with a well-rounded education that includes both religious studies and academic subjects. Our goal is to empower these children with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in life.
We provide a comprehensive education that includes both religious studies and vital academic subjects such as English, math, and science. While traditional religious schools may offer a strong foundation in Quran, Tajweed and Islamic studies, it is essential also to have access to a diverse curriculum that provides the skills and qualifications necessary for success in higher education and the workforce. Our blend of religious and academic studies is designed to empower children and break the cycle of poverty through education.

At each of our 200 schools, 10% of students opt to take the memorisation course. Our 100% completion rate is a testament to both the quality of our teaching and the dedication of our students.
With your help, we’ve created generations of well-rounded students who know and understand Islam, and who also have the knowledge they need to escape poverty and provide for themselves and their families.
We need your support to keep this going. Donate now and support a child’s religious education.

We give all our 30,000 students the option of studying Quran, Tajweed and Islamic studies alongside traditional subjects, so they don’t have to choose between their worldly and afterlife.
Our 3-year memorisation course advances students’ knowledge and understanding of Islam. It’s structured so they’re able to take their studies to university level and enter the world of Islamic scholarship, while also giving them the option to study traditional subjects at a higher level too. We’ve managed to create a balanced curriculum that offers the best of both worlds.
Our small classes of 15 to 20 students per scholar means students are given the close individual supervision they need for a quality education.
By the time they graduate, they’re modern beacons of Islam who are able to represent both their religion and country.
