Empowering Futures, Building Hope

Education: The Key to Progress and Prosperity

In a world where education is the cornerstone of individual growth, societal development, and national progress, we stand at a critical juncture. Education is not just a means; it's the ultimate path to a better life. It empowers individuals to secure their livelihoods, contributes to their well-being, and strengthens communities. However, in India, a significant challenge looms large: a staggering 52% of India's Muslim population lacks basic literacy skills.

This literacy gap is intertwined with the web of poverty, plaguing nearly one-third of India's vast population. Poverty brings with it a host of problems—poor health, inadequate sanitation, limited access to quality education, unemployment, and malnutrition—all contributing to a cycle of despair. Amidst this, the Muslim community, one of the world's fastest-growing, faces barriers to accessing quality education.

Existing institutions often lack the resources and infrastructure to provide holistic education that preserves Islamic values and principles. This disconnect between education and cultural identity leaves many young Muslims feeling marginalized and disengaged from their community. Some children lack even the basic resources like books or uniforms, setting them up to fall behind and never catch up. Youth drop out of school to support their families, and schools remain understaffed, failing to provide adequate education.

A Lack of Education Leads to a Cycle of Poverty

The absence of education exacerbates the risk of involvement in risky behaviors, deepening the cycle of poverty. Our mission is clear: we aim to break this cycle and open doors of opportunity.

Introducing Our Vision

We envision an institution that will not only bridge the educational gap but also provide essential skills, social support, and a sense of hope. Our proposed institution will offer a comprehensive curriculum deeply rooted in Islamic values, encompassing early childhood education, post-secondary learning, and adult education—a beacon of learning, much like the revered Aligarh Muslim University.

Our school is more than bricks and mortar; it's a haven for learning and growth. Our facilities include a fully-equipped kitchen, modern computer labs, a dedicated space for mental health, and a gymnasium. For spiritual growth, Quran classes will be available, nurturing religious beliefs. Moreover, coding classes will empower students with skills vital in today's global job market, fostering innovation, problem-solving, and leadership.

Our Home: District Ajmer, India

In our starting year, we aim to admit 6,000 students, with 2,500 benefiting from the Salahuddin Ayyubi Foundation Masoom Scholarship Programme, receiving not only education but also essential school necessities.

• Provide quality education infused with Islamic values.
• Promote cultural identity and a strong sense of community.
• Nurture the next generation of Muslim leaders.

Institution Development Plan:

In 2023-2024, we secured a prime piece of land for our school with an investment of INR 8 Crore (~USD 483,200.00). Our budget for the entire project is $2 million, covering land, construction, equipment, and more.
