Each lesson comes with about 10 pages of bespoke copyright study notes, all prepared by Abu Khadeejah, may Allah bless the work and effort. That’s thousands of pages over the period of the course. Here are a few samples of the first pages:
1. Weekend 60-minute Islamic Cultivation for Boys Aged 9-16 Years
The Living as a Muslim in Today’s World tarbiyah course has been designed to develop students’ knowledge and understanding of Islam in historical and contemporary contexts through a range of key topics and the texts of both the Qur’an and Hadīth. It will enable students to develop their skills of analysis and interpretation in the context of questions and issues that affect Islam and the lives of Muslims today.
There will be time to ask Abu Khadeejah questions during and after each lesson―and they’ll be set homework each week, and if they submit it, it will be marked, inshā’-Allāh. However, the pupils are not obliged to submit homework.
Students are accepted from all over the world and can enrol at any time. Whenever you step in, you’ll benefit, inshā’-Allāh.
This three year course is taught at a pace conducive to the level and age of the students in the class and serves as an excellent foundation for those who wish to pursue the more intensive two-year International GCSE (Edexel Pearson Certificate) or the Advanced Level Islamic Studies (Cambridge University Assessment) course with Abu Khadeejah in the future, inshā’-Allāh.
This course is ideal for young males aged 9 to 16 years old.
2. Why a Short Weekly Tarbiyah Class is So Important
This course has been designed for young men to develop their knowledge and understanding of Islam in historical and contemporary contexts through a range of key topics in light of the teachings of the Qur’an and Sunnah. These lessons enable students to develop skills of analysis, research and interpretation. With these skills, they can face the challenges that affect Islam and the lives of Muslims today. There will be time to ask Abu Khadeejah questions during and after each lesson―and they’ll be set homework each week, and if they submit it, it’ll be marked, inshā’-Allāh.
The course also serves as an excellent foundation for those who wish to pursue the International GCSE certificate or Advanced Level Islamic Studies course with Shaikh Abu Khadeejah in the future, inshā’-Allāh. The course content has been created by Abu Khadeejah ʿAbdul-Wāhid, and includes thousands of pages of study notes with new content being added weekly—all praise is for Allāh, and may Allāh bless it.
Lessons are prepared as “stand-alone” classes so you can enrol and join at any time and still understand the subject.
3. Course Dates and Times
When can I register? Ideally, each year, between 1st June and 1st September. Places are limited; therefore, the earlier you apply, the more likely you are to get a place (inshā’-Allāh).
Course start date: September / October of each year.
Payment: Every 3 months in advance until course completion, or for the whole course in advance.
The course will be delivered as a 60-minute lesson every Saturday, with holidays as arranged by Abu Khadeejah.
There will be 36 lessons per annum with three terms, broadly following British and US school term times – that means breaks through the year (including ʿEids). The course duration is three years, but you can start and finish at any time. However, rejoining is subject to availability.
4. Day and Time Each Week
This 60-minute class takes place every Saturday, normally between 12 pm and 1 pm (UK time). The time of the lesson has been set to suit as many time zones as possible.
There will be 36 of these lessons per annum over three terms, broadly following British and US school term times. That means there will be vacations throughout the year (including ʿEids). The course duration is three years, beginning in September every year. The exact start date will be decided by Abu Khadeejah, inshā’-Allāh.
So, the course is for three academic years, and the live teaching time is one hour per week, loosely following the UK schools’ term timetable. A month of teaching is four hours of learning. The teacher reserves the right to poll the students and alter these times if he sees that to be suitable.

I am a graduate and a qualified teacher with over 30 years of experience in teaching Islam. I wish the best for you, so I expect my students to pay attention, work hard and be sincere in seeking knowledge.”
Furthermore, Shaikh Abu Khadeejah has been recommended and praised by numerous senior Scholars, such as Shaikh Muqbil Ibn Hādī (rahimahullāh), Shaikh Abdullāh al-Ghudayān (rahimahullāh), Shaikh Rabeeʿ Ibn Hādī Al-Madkhali, Shaikh ʿUbayd Al-Jābirī (rahimahullāh), and Shaikh Hasan Ibn ʿAbdul-Wahhāb al-Bannā.

We will show you how to join the class. But, in essence, this video shows you how it works:
9. How the Lessons are Taught
- You will need a Gmail (Google email) account. Once you’ve set it up, please email us from the Gmail account with your full name.
- Please choose a simple username, such as an actual name or a kunyah, e.g., abdullah.jones, or abu.zainab, or umm.talibah, etc. This makes it easy for us to recognise individual students.
- Your assignments will be submitted via Google Docs, which you’ll have access to through your Gmail account.
- Lesson Format: We intend to use Google Classroom to conduct the classes. Please take time to familiarise yourselves with both. Don’t worry too much if you cannot grasp it immediately, we will help you along.
- You will need to have regular access to a laptop, tablet, or desktop computer for use in lessons and for submitting assignments. Smartphones will not be sufficient!
- Please attend on time, pay attention to the class, and it is better that you take notes or make mind-maps. This will form the backbone of your work.
- We will compile some great class study articles (PDF format) that will aid you in learning the relevant topics.
- All the classes will be recorded for you to revise or catch up in case you miss lessons.
10. Stay in Touch with Your Teacher
You can stay in touch with Abu Khadeejah via WhatsApp, and we’ve set up a dedicated Telegram group for all those registered so you can communicate with us, ask questions, and seek clarification.
11. Abu Khadeejah’s Unique Methodology in this Course
We intend to teach this course from the perspective of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamāʿah, i.e., those who follow the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and cling to the path of his noble Companions (Allah be pleased with them), the methodology and traditions of the early Ḥadīth scholars. The People of Ḥadīth adhere to the narrations authentically reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions.
12. Abu Khadeejah’s Teaching Approach
Abu Khadeejah’s teaching approach is friendly and informal because that is more engaging (especially for younger people), nevertheless, the body of knowledge that he’ll be covering over these three years will build a solid foundation of Islām for the rest of their lives, inshā’-Allāh!
13. Course Fees
The fee will be £15 per week (GBP) per student based on one hour of direct learning each week, to be paid three months in advance. You can pay by Debit Card from anywhere in the world. You will need to send the fee seven days before the first lesson every three months. You will be notified when the payment is due. Any delay in payment will result in the denial of access to the classes. Then, you will not be reinstated into the class until the full monthly payment is received, even if this results in you missing some lessons. Once you have been removed, all your work is erased from Google Classroom.
Remember that the course lasts for two years.
Payments are taken every three months or once a year (as you prefer):
* Term One: 12 lessons: £180 (GB Pounds) or $250 (US Dollars)
* Term Two: 12 lessons: £180 (GB Pounds) or $250 (US Dollars)
* Term Three: 12 lessons: £180 (GB Pounds) or $250 (US Dollars)
Or for the complete year:
* Academic year covering 36 lessons: £540 (GB Pounds) or $750 (US Dollars)
14. Leaving the Course and Missing Lessons
You can leave the course at any time without penalty (or hard feelings), but let us know at least two weeks before the next payment is due. Please note: Refund will not be given once the fee is paid, so completing the lessons for that period would be advisable. Additionally, if you are unwell, busy at work or on holiday, fees will not be refunded, nor carried over into the next month or months.
We expect students to catch up on any missed work. All the classes are recorded, so you can listen again and revise at any time, inshā’-Allāh. You will not be charged during term holidays, half-term holidays or during teacher absences. So, you only pay for the actual lessons, and not more than that. Please remember that this is a Tarbiyah (Cultivation) course with plenty of bespoke material produced by Shaikh Abu Khadeejah (may Allah preserve him). Therefore, students must take their studies seriously, and it requires commitment, but that does not mean they will not enjoy the lessons. Our students love the classes and join us each week as friends and family!
