Alim Course

Aalim Courses in Darul Ulooms

Posted on April 16, 2010 with No Comments

Darul Uloom literally means ‘House/Place of Knowledge’.

The term is synonymous with aalim courses as these houses of knowledge are used specifically for this purpose and possibly Hifz classes as well.

The bigger Darul Ulooms also have sleeping/boarding facilities. This means that the student spends his entire day, every day, in the much needed Islamic environment.

This in itself is a great benefit to becoming an alim.

Starting an alim course without the proper environment will not be conducive to achieving the benefits of Ilm.

In such an environment, students can help each other and help is always at hand when needed. It brings solidarity and brotherhood amongst the students and this is the backbone of the Islamic scholarly way of life.

If you can’t attend a full time aalim course at a darul uloom, you can always take a part time alim course with one of the smaller institutions.

I will recommend one to you at a later date.

Here’s a video I chose just to illustrate the benefits of classical aalim course education in a Darul Uloom.

Salaams for now,
