About Year One (Foundation)
Year One of the Islamic Scholarship program is designed for beginners who are starting their journey in studying the Islamic Sciences. Nearly all modules in this section are taught by the eminent scholar Shaykh Atabek Shukurov and have either a "certificate of completion" and/or a "Sanad" (Authentic Islamic Certificate with a chain of scholars going back to the author of the text being studied) for each module. Most modules are Pre-recorded, however, some of them will be Streamed Live (this will be stated next to the module). For the live streaming modules they will come at an additional cost which will be stated next to the module itself. To see a comprehensive list of LIVE-STREAMED MODULES CLICK HERE
Note: ALL THE MODULES IN YEAR ONE ARE FREE TO VIEW unless it is a LIVE LESSON. Meaning you may watch the full lectures for free if you wish. You will just need to REGISTER and create a FREE ACCOUNT.

It has a broad scope, although in brief format, making it an ideal introductory text for students of knowledge who wish to learn sciences of hadith. This matn is generally memorized because it contains the essential hadith terminologies like ghareeb, sahih, mursal, marfoo and so on. Its rhythmic nature makes it easy to memorize the entire matn. This Matn Al-Bayquniyyah is learned by students of knowledge prior to moving to much detailed texts such as Ikhtisaar Uloom al-hadith by Ibn Kathir or Nukhbatul al-fikr by Ibn Hajar. It is vital for everyone irrespective of which faculty one may want to excel in like fiqh, tafseer, aqeedah etc.
