Introduction
It is crucial to acquire religious knowledge, but the demands for its acquisition have changed over time. In this modern era of technology, everything is changing rapidly. The size of things is decreasing, and so is the time involved. The size of computers has shrunk to that of a matchbox, or even smaller. Thousands of books can now be stored in a mobile phone smaller than one's hand. This is why Madani Courses are an excellent means of learning religious, ethical, organisational, and Sharia-compliant knowledge in a short amount of time. What are Madani Courses? Madani Courses refer to teaching a large number of individuals a vast amount of fundamental and essential religious information in a specific, short period, at a particular location, and with a defined structure and system (such as enrolment, taking exams, etc.). Madani Courses are an excellent way to teach a lot in a short time. Short-term courses are conducted physically in various places and institutions worldwide, and they are extremely popular among the general public. These courses are offered free of charge by Dawat-e-Islami's Madani Courses department to Dawat-e-Islami's responsible individuals and common devotees of the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) both domestically and abroad. All Madani Courses are conducted by expert and experienced teachers under the supervision of scholars and Muftis, in light of reliable books of Ahl-e-Sunnat. There are several types of courses: residential Madani Courses, short-term Madani Courses, weekly Madani Courses, and event-based Madani Courses. The course includes a formal enrolment process, attendance tracking, and finally, a system for taking exams and encouraging successful students. The durations of these Madani Courses range from 3 days, 7 days, 12 days, one month, and 63 days. The daily class time for short courses is approximately two hours, or 120 minutes. Alhamdulillah!
