Mahadul-Faqir Al-Islami, Jhang, Pakistan, (parent institute of eMahad) was founded by Shaykh Zulfiqar Ahmad Naqshbandi (db) more than 35 years ago. The institute has had an extraordinary impact on the spiritual and academic development of thousands of students, across the globe, through adeptly designed Islamic programs.
Due to a great demand from ilm seekers globally who wanted to study under the patronage of Shaykh Zulfiqar Ahmad Naqshbandi (db), eMahad came into existence. The online platform was created to fulfill the following objectives:

• To impart knowledge of classical Islamic disciplines through various simplified and well structured ilm programs.
• To revive the sunnah of our beloved Prophet Mohammed (PBUM) and instill Ikhlaq-e-hameeda (highest moral conduct) in students through regular tarbiyah sessions.
• To help students find remedies for spiritual diseases (tazkiyah) through personalized guidance and counseling.
• To offer Islamic insight on contemporary and lifestyle issues pertinent to men and women to comply with Sunnah and Shariah in their daily lives.
• To instill love of ALLAH and HIS Prophet through regular online gatherings promoting spiritual development and awareness of a deep connection with ALLAH through increased remembrance. and
• Through Mahad and eMahad, Shaykh Zulfiqar Ahmad Naqshbandi (db), combined the two sciences of ILM (academics) and Tazkiya & Tarbiyah (personal and spiritual development). This institute is a sanctuary for the seekers of both knowledge and spiritual development.

We supplement our course material with current research in modern sciences and teach using a modern educational approach, making eMahad distinct in its embrace of tradition and technology.
