Listen to talk on youtube كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُونَ Every soul will taste death. Then to Us will you be returned. [Al-Ankabut 29:57] كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ ۗ وَنَبْلُوكُم بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً ۖ وَإِلَيْنَا تُرْجَعُونَ Every soul will taste death.

A: In the Quran-e-Kareem the word nafs is used in two ways. 1. First way that the word nafs is used, is to indicate our own-self. Some people would translate it in English as self, some people would translate […]

It’s been almost one and a half year since I have been associated with Zaynab Academey Alhamdulillah. The classroom experience with the teachers, students is amazing. They make it a homely place for you where you can learn, interact and collectively grow spiritually. The best thing about Zaynab Academy is you can find people whom you can relate to, who are going through the same set of struggles from the dunya and its attractions and trying to get closer to Allah SWT and apply the knowledge in… Read more
Zaynab Academy gives you a family of which you become a part-simple!
Just the suhbah of the family members and their sincere affection towards slowly takes you closer and closer to Allah Ta’ala…
Being an MBBS student gives one secular education but leaves one a confused Muslim due to lack of religious knowledge and its practice. Alhamdulillah for Zaynab Academy for it is a safe haven and a way to get closer to Allah SubhanahuTa’Ala through the suhbat and guidance of His beloved and His lovers. Zaynab Academy is about loving Allah Ta’Ala and loving for His sake and indeed has saved many youths.May Allah accept us on this path, Ameen.

Being a student at a co-education school in this day and age, us students come across all types of fitna which bring people away from Deen and encourages them to involve in all sorts of un-Islamic activities. And education being a real necessity now, we simply have to go to school everyday, and come across views which are different from ours about Islam, which can influence us so much as to change your own point of view about something. To remain indifferent to all this and remain steadfast on o… Read more
Zaynab Academy gave me what no other Islamic institute could; a place for the Deen of Islam in my heart, and not just in the brain. For years I had tried to learn my Deen from different places but whatever I studied and applied was always superficial – a month or 2 of amal, and then back to square one.
Love for Allah swt, Adab, importance of Sohbat.. these concepts were previously alien to me. Zaynab Academy taught me what I believe is the most important lesson on the path to becoming a true Mom… Read more
I am a busy wife and mother of four small children, ages five down to three months old. I took shahada almost 11 years and since then I’d been in search of the right place where I could learn about the depths of Islam in letter and in spirit. Alhamdulillah, the doors of my dreams of gaining sacred knowledge were opened by Allah swt. I have been taking classes with Zaynab Academy Online for two years, and now I’m enrolled in a Classical Islamic Learning degree track with Zaynab Academy. I kno… Read more

When I first heard about ZA, I wanted to join it, but was resistant. But when Allah Ta’ala finally took me there, I was totally amazed by how the teachers take you in so softly and with respect that you’d want to come again and again and never leave that place. Always staying a part of Zaynab Academy has remained one of my goals. It is not about just ilm, but also about how Shaykh Mufti Kamaluddin Ahmed sahab and his wife keep boosting your level of faith via talks and personal conversations. T… Read more

ZA changed my life completely. I got all answers which were unanswered before. I felt isolated being in deen but as I stepped into the ZA family I realized that I am not alone. I got a new family which I would never want to lose again. I began to see the world with a new prism of love. A love which constantly reminded me of HIM. WHO IS VERY NEAR TO MY JUGULAR VEIN.

My experience at ZA has been a life changing one.. but its not distinctive from other people who have come here. To each and everyone.. ZA has been a refuge from the harshness the world had for us when we were striving in the path of Allah. As for me.. I didnt even know I wanted Allah. It was a beautiful coincidence that I stepped on ZA’s ground. I have met some of the most amazing people here.. people who have given up the world and more.. just for Allah. Most of all… I have discovered myself.… Read more

After getting attached to this institution I realized the reality of this dunya. Am now proud to be a Muslim and thankful to Allah swt and my ustadhas who are all so humble, loving and caring.

Imagine holding the same books in your hands which ulema and sulahas of the ummah have read in the past. Gave me a point to ponder upon; that how merciful Allah Ta’Ala has been with me. For a piece of filth like me, He gave the flavour of heaven on earth.
As for our teachers; you can try to avoid loving them but you will end up loving each one of them like anything. Their selfless love and efforts for our tarbiyah cannot be repaid.
May Allah Ta’Ala always keeps us all connected in this duniyah a… Read more

Imagine a person sick to the extent that that she is no longer capable to even go visit a doctor, let alone get some medicine; someone on absolute bed rest without anyone near by who can assist her. In this situation a well-wisher miraculously out of no where, and expecting nothing in return, silently comes and injects medicine which is so effective that finally after ages the person is able to open her eyes and move. How grateful she would be to the one who got her this medicine helping her pu… Read more

I am a teacher and I teach junior grades which exhausts me of all my energy by the time school ends. Hence everyday I get off from work I push myself to go for studying and every single day its a fight between me and my nafs till the moment I get back home from school and leave my doorstep for ZA… And every single day i reach there and I feel I have finally found my sanctuary.. I find peace in my heart for i feel safe from shaytaan and my own sinner nafs.
