The institute offers a gap year programme of study that corresponds to the first year of the Four Year Hawza Programme. This offers students an unrivalled opportunity to obtain a strong grounding in Arabic and a broad range of Muslim religious scholarly disciplines, from Qura'nic studies to Muslim philosophy.

The course is tailored to allow students the space to explore serious questions about religion and Islam and is ideal for those who want to take a year out prior to University, after graduation or even later on in life.

The breadth and depth of studies in this one year not only gives students a platform to continue on a life long journey of independent learning within the sphere of Islamic studies but it should also give them tools which will enrich their subsequent University, Professional and family life.
