ALIM Scholars and Instructors

All of our scholars who come to teach at the ALIM program have extensive knowledge in the subjects that they teach. Their own studies have led them to different parts of the world, attaining Ijaaza's from Al Azhar, to Ph.D.'s from renowned universities here in the US. We at ALIM pride ourselves in providing the students with scholars from varied backgrounds and teachings. It is ALIM's goal to immerse the students in this diversity of thought and learning.

Since the inception of ALIM, our core scholars ( Dr. Abdul-Hakim Jackson, Dr. Muneer Fareed, and Dr. Ali Sulaiman Ali) have taught the majority of the courses at the Summer Program every year. They had also developed the curriculum, refining it every year from the feedback of the students.

The list of guest scholars that grace us with their presence, vary from year to year. Below is the list of scholars confirmed for this year's ALIM Summer Program:
