understanding of Islam and its normative
sciences through the means of thoroughly recognized
unbroken chains of Islamic authorization viz.
the Ijaza and Isnaad, which go back fourteen
centuries to tie the institute and its scholars,
to the beloved Messenger of Allah, Sayyidina Muhammad
sallalahu `alaihi wa sallam (may peace be upon him).
