Darul Huda effect
Darul Huda model of education, i.e. and effective synthesis and a value-added integration of religious and secular education at secondary and higher levels, can be seen as a culmination of scholarly discourses that explored the ways of ending a perceived dichotomy in the education sector. This model ended a long-standing confusion of parents and students who had to select between the religious or secular for higher studies after having had both at primary levels from Madrasah and schools. Parents who wanted to make their children religious scholars sent them to Shari’ah colleges where the learning was limited to various traditional religious subjects. The result was incompetence of religious graduates and their inability to cope with modern trends and the failure of secularly-educated to carry forward their religious ethos.
Darul Huda model of education also put an end to a widespread feeling that religious education was the choice of poor students or of those less talented, under-skilled and 'good for nothing else' children. Darul Huda caters particularly to bright and talented students irrespective of their background, and selects limited students purely on the basis of merit after conducting tough written and oral examinations. The founders of the institution stressed that, prophets (Peace Be Upon Them) who carried out religious propagation were inordinately talented and far-sighted. Hence, the religious scholars (ulama) who are the successors or heirs of the prophets (PBUT), must be the best among the community, spiritually, intellectually and physically.to know more please clickhere.
Interestingly, the institution has evoked great interest among a large number of Muslims in Kerala. Even the very rich or highly educated families among them have started vying for admissions for their children therein. Several trusts and committees in different parts of Kerala affiliated their institutions with Darul Huda, adopting the same syllabus and receiving academic assistance from it. The students of the affiliated institutions proceed to Darul Huda campus after the degree level to pursue their 2-year PG there

DARUL HUDA ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY: A University with deference
The realization that the role of religiously educated scholars in the intellectual, social, cultural and even the spiritual spheres is so minimal, that hardly they can be described as ‘true heirs of the Holy Prophets of Allah’ was the main impetus re-kindled DHIA’s authority to re-assert its mission. Succinctly, the Holy Qur’an has described the role of a Prophet as one:
who recites to them His verses, and purifies them, and teaches them the Book and Wisdom, whereas afore they were surely in error manifest (al- Quran Al Ana’am: 164).
Spiritual and intellectual refinement of the Muslim community on every aspects of life, and guiding them on various issues at micro and macro levels were key to the roles of Holy Prophets of Allah. As true heirs of the Holy Prophets (PBUT), the Scholars of Islam (‘ulamā’) should be able to shoulder such heavy roles. They should not withdraw from to their own shells, leaving the Muslim community behind in the face of grievous challenges at every front.
The opponents of Islam and Muslims have strengthened their positions against Islam and have waged a full-fledged war at every front. The challenges at educational level are the most thunderous. The very framework of any science, -human and social, pure and natural- are constructed on worldviews alien to the essential spirit of Islam. The sense of ‘sacred’ is seen as no more viable; rather religion is seen as the greatest threat to the development. The challenges posed by various intellectual, socio-cultural ‘isms’ melted in the crucible of Western ideologies and narrow conception of science such Atheism, Polytheism, Humanism, Evolution, Psychoanalysis, Liberalism, Marxism, Capitalism, Orientalism, Dialectical Materialism, Historicism, Rationalism, Racism, Extremism, Terrorism and other scores of orientations are not only monstrous as such, but are profoundly organized and united to challenge. Through educational institutions, especially at higher levels, a paradigm shift was planned and executed in order to purge out everything ‘sacred’ and ‘religious’ and to weaken the attachment of Muslims to their religion.
Hence, it is vital that both the institutions of Islamic religious higher education and their graduates (‘ulamā’) take the issue as the most serious and pursue through concerted efforts to counter such ‘isms’, rather to guide the Muslim community and humanity at large in every faculties of life, religious and otherwise, for ‘ulamā’ are entrusted to act as exemplars of the prophets of Allah. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)’s rigorous personal concern about future scholars of Islam in the School of Bench (ashab al-Suffah) is the inspiration of DHIU. The main purpose of the Suffah School was to preserve the intellectual heritage of Islam, which in turn is the model that DHIU subscribes for itself. At Suffah, the Holy Prophet (PBUH) ‘aimed at establishing… a center of learning’ (Acikgenc, 1996: 83-84).
The Darul Huda Islamic Academy was formally upgraded to be an university on 10th May 2009. Read more...
