Welcome to Jamia Al-Hudaa

The Jamia Al-Hudaa project was started due to an ever increasing demand for Islamic Education for Muslims within Europe. Jamia Al-Hudaa was officially opened on the 17th August 1996 by the eminent scholar Maulana Sayyed Abul Hasan Ali Nadvi. The aim of Jamia Al-Hudaa is to provide learning and training opportunities for students over the ages of 11 and 16 within an Islamic environment.

Insha’Allah, our aim is to make Jamia Al-Hudaa a centre of excellence for learning in Europe. We want to ensure that our future generation is Islamically educated whilst having the opportunity to study other subjects. Not only do we want to develop the Islamic personality in our students so that they will be able to apply the Qur’an and Sunnah in their daily lives, but also work for the cause of Deen in Europe.

Our aim is to develop Jamia Al-Hudaa into a fully recognised institution throughout the world thus providing the best education in an Islamic environment. For this we need the support of the Muslim Ummah in Europe. We pray to Allah (SWT) that we are successful in this Islamic cause, and that He (SWT) guides us in every step. Ameen.

Students Facilities

The building was used as the Headquarters for the Nottingham Health Authority until the early 1990’s. Both the buildings and grounds are well suited for a residential establishment. Jamia Al-Hudda is located in the City of Nottingham in the area known as Mapperley Park, which is a quiet and peaceful residential area.

The building itself is in good condition and consists of five blocks covering an area of approximately 75 000 sq.ft. In total there are over 200 rooms, which are used as classrooms, offices and student accommodation. Jamia Al-Hudaa offers excellent residential facilities for female students. Apart from the residential accommodation, the Jamia has an excellent dining hall, study area and a library; an on-site laundry facility is also available. The site has an outdoor play area as well as an indoor recreational area.

The location for the Jamia has been carefully selected. Many factors were considered before choosing a suitable site. These factors are:

  • The privacy and suitability for a girls’ Jamia.
  • Easy access for the community.
  • Good communication links.
  • Secure for the purpose.
