A legacy of
authentic Islamic teaching
Rooted in a 50-year family tradition of Qur'anic scholarship. Brought online so that every Muslim family — wherever they are in the world — can access authentic, qualified Islamic education.
Where Jamia Hafs began
Jamia Hafs was not built in a boardroom. It was built from a lifetime of service — beginning with a father who spent over 50 years teaching the Qur'an, quietly and sincerely, one student at a time.
Over those five decades, more than 1,000 students sat with him and learned to read, recite and understand the words of Allah. Many of those students went on to become teachers themselves. The knowledge did not stop with him — it multiplied.
Jamia Hafs was founded to carry that same spirit forward — taking the same authentic, qualified teaching that happened in person and making it available to Muslim families across the world through live online classes.
Mufti Ataul Rehman is not a teacher who arrived at Islamic scholarship through a short course or a weekend programme. He was raised in it — as the son of an Aalim who spent over 50 years teaching the Qur'an to more than 1,000 students.
He went on to complete formal Islamic education at two institutions — Noorul Islam Daman and the Abdullah Ibn-e-Masood Academy — earning his qualifications with both Ijazah and Sanad in Riwayat Hafs. A Sanad is a verified chain of narration — a direct connection, teacher to teacher, all the way back to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
Very few teachers in the world carry this qualification. Mufti Ataul Rehman is one of them — and through Jamia Hafs, he makes this level of teaching available to students around the world through live online classes.
His teaching style is patient, structured and deeply rooted in the classical tradition. Whether teaching a 5-year-old the Arabic alphabet or guiding an advanced student through the sciences of Qira'at — every student receives the same sincere, careful attention.
