What problem is Khairabadi Institute trying to solve?

The traditional curricula of the Islamic world fostered the development of some of the greatest minds. These scholars didn't merely repeat past arguments; instead, they built upon them by contributing their own insightful observations on various issues.

Therefore, access to the works from these earlier curricula is essential for aspiring scholars. By engaging with these works, students develop the skill sets necessary to navigate the vast body of Islamic scholarship and cultivate original thought.

Furthermore, while various teaching styles exist, each achieving specific outcomes, accessing the traditional works is best facilitated by a teaching style directly transmitted from the original authors or their esteemed followers who continued the tradition.

The Khairabadi teaching style is unique within Islamic scholarship. Its sanad culminates in the leading scholars of each generation, tracing back to Imam Abul al-Hasan al-Ash'ari and including luminaries such as Imam Ghazali, Imam Razi, Imam Baydawi, Imam Adud al-Din al-Iji, Mir Sayyid Sharif Jurjani, Allama Fath-Allah al-Shirazi, and Mulla Nizam al-Din Sihalwi.

We strive to eliminate the obstacles hindering students' access to the traditional works within Islamic scholarship. We achieve this by facilitating their engagement with these works through the unique Khairabadi teaching style, transmitted with an unbroken chain through generations.
