Tarbiyah Seminary
Mission
Tarbiyah Seminary is committed to providing comprehensive Islamic education to the next generations. Situated in Plano, we offer our unique program in both on-site and online formats to cater to the diverse needs of our students. Students residing in Dallas must attend in-person unless they have received a formal exemption.
The Tarbiyah program is a specialized two-year Islamic Studies program tailored for the Muslim American community. This program consists of three levels, catering to middle school boys and girls: Shafqah, high school boys and girls: Nusrah, and adults aged 18 and above: Hikmah.
Classes are conducted throughout the semester, and students must complete one intensive semester to graduate within 2 years. Upon completion, students will receive a graduation certificate based on their tier enrollment.
Our Programs
Shafqah
(Middle School)
Shafqah, the first level of the Tarbiyah Seminary, provides a supportive setting for middle school students who are interested in exploring Islam more deeply. Given the Arabic word "Shafqah" translates to compassion or care, we focus on guiding students through this pivotal age with empathy, tying their personal growth to the foundational teachings of this beautiful religion of Islam.
Nusrah
(High School)
Nusrah, the second tier of the Tarbiyah Seminary, is specifically designed for high school students interested in deepening their Islamic faith and understanding. The term "Nusrah" in Arabic signifies support or assistance, embodying the dual aspects of giving and receiving help. In alignment with this, we aim to aid our students in their spiritual journey, while also teaching them the importance of seeking divine assistance from Allah and being of service to others.
Hikmah
(Adults 18+)
Hikmah, the final stage of the Tarbiyah Seminary, caters to adults aged 18 and above, who wish to broaden their understanding of Islam. "Hikmah" in Arabic means wisdom, an apt descriptor for this program that focuses on the integration of advanced Islamic teachings into the wisdom of life's experiences. We aim to guide our students in acquiring wisdom from Islamic teachings and understanding how to apply this wisdom in their everyday life.
