Establishment & Authorization
The acquisition of knowledge is a very lofty, great and important obligation for every Muslim. Since the acquisition of knowledge is one of the main obligatory worships, it is crucial that one can acquire reliable knowledge according to the Sunnah.
Despite the fact that there is a great need for them, there are currently no reliable Islamic training institutes in the Netherlands, taking the foregoing matters into account. In view of the sublimity of gathering knowledge, and in order to subsequently be able to support the Muslims in the Netherlands in the right way in this obligation, the Institute for Education & Education with the will and help of Allaah subhaanahu wa-ta3aalaa in the year 2006 founded by brother Suhayb Salam, son of Shaykh Ahmad Salam.
The Institute, with the will and help of Allaah subhaanahu wa-ta3aalaa, has succeeded in providing reliable knowledge in an authorized manner to anyone who seeks it. The Institute was founded for brothers and sisters who are looking for reliable knowledge, at the level of beginners and advanced. In particular, the Institute seeks to build a bridge to the young, so that they learn and practice the right knowledge, and then carry out the call to Islam correctly.
In order to ensure reliability and confidentiality, the Institute is recognized, supported and authorized in imparting knowledge by various scholars, including Shaykh Abu Suhayb Ahmad Salam and his disciples. In addition, the Institute has a close cooperation with the Islamic Foundation for Education and Transfer of Knowledge and the El Tawheed Foundation.
