Weekend Fard al-Ayn
Knowledge of the essentials for the modern young Muslim.
'Ilm and 'Amal Methodology
As detailed in our course outline, Islamic Studies at Citra is based on the 'Ilm and 'Amal method of understanding. We move beyond rote memorization to foster a deep focus on belief ('aqidah) and practical application of the Quran's meanings in daily life.
Authentic 'Aqidah
Rooted in the educational framework of classical scholars and the works of Prof. Al-Attas, focusing on belief in the scientific age.
Quranic Integration
Daily interaction with word-by-word Arabic meanings to scaffold native-like understanding of the Divine text.
