Arkview+ Scholarship
Introduction to the Program
Arkview+ gives you access to the coming Summer 2021 Term, Spring 2021, as well as all past & future foundations and scholarship courses. Every term we add new teachers and courses. The scholarship track offers technical courses in ‘aqida, fiqh, usul, ‘ilm al-hadith, ‘ulum al-Quran, and fiqh al-sira. Exams are given online. Students who complete the Scholarship Track often go on to teach in their local masajid and in some cases teach for Safina Society onsite or online.

Mufti Niaz Hannan

These chains connect one to students and teachers of Hadith going back fourteen centuries and ultimately back to The Greatest of Creation.
Remembrance of God
Dr. Shadee Elmasry
How frustrating is it not being able to access knowledge directly from its Arabic sources? This course takes you through the text word for word, while also discussing the content. So this is not just Arabic. If you don't know Arabic at all, you will still benefit from the commentary. This is how the screen looks, as the sections we go over are highlighted and specific words are marked.
