A Tour of Zaytuna College

Zaytuna students Faraz Bootwalla and Lyba Hussain take the viewer on a tour of the campus. Experience moments of teaching, with visits to classes and a reflection from Dr. Ali Ataie, dean of Undergraduate Studies. The tour crisscrosses the campus and its grounds, including a visit to the prayer hall, the permaculture garden, and the sunnah sports program. Whether you’re a prospective student, a supporter, or simply curious about Zaytuna, we invite you to watch.

I'm a Catholic Christian in formation for the priesthood, and I really admire what Zaytuna is doing. Your commitment to the liberal arts, the arts of freedom, is a shared pursuit with Christianity, and something which I hope brings us together in love of God and man.

[@Mohammed-bz8lt]

​@Zaytuna I have a question please do not consider this disrespectful but its a genuine question and maybe even critiscim directed for you to clear up. Why do you allow musical instruments in your promotion when I've learned that the strongest and majority opinion is that outside the duff most are haram? Second question is, there is requirement to cover the awrah especially if young men and women are sat opposite each other. And also if your going to be a public presenter. With all due respect to the sister, may Allah bless her and raise her rank, she's revealing her neck despite it being impermissible, in a edited video prepared by a islamic institution for public viewing, this may seem pedantic but can you please explain the reason for the laxity of islamic rulings? Last question is genuine, you may be aware that there are growing criticisms of american islam as being a sort of neo tradition of sunnism. One that claims authentic tradition but in many aspects seems westernised to the detriment of the tradition, how can we consider a institution to learn the light of Islam and deen of Allah when their promotional material is lax regarding the rules of islam?

Salam alaykum. Our College offers two degrees, at the BA and MA level. Our graduates go on to pursue a variety of different professions. Both men and women study at Zaytuna. We hope this helps.

[@sameershossain]

As much I appreciate Zaytuna's mission, the intermingling of women and men contradicts what Islam preaches. Please next time have the males and females seperated when giving the tour. Jazakallahu Khair!

To see a modest islamic college in this era of non modesty where usually modern Western college life is associated with the majority of students participating in acts like drinking and zina and other acts of impurities is something that completely caught me off guard. I'm extremely delighted to find out a college like Zaytuna exists. This video got me emotional 🥹. I just hope the tuition is also modest.

What kind of Islam is this? I’m really astounded! Wassap with the mingling of genders. Sadly this is all under the guidance of a credible scholar. Ask him, was it like this in Mauritania, Baghdad, or wherever else he studied?

[@luminescentboy3340]

There are about 14,000 to 18,000 madrasahs in Bangladesh that teach the same way. Where is the problem?

[@mirhaider8190]

Add a million more madrassas to that. It’s still not right! What kind of a senseless justification is that?! 90% of the Muslims don’t pray. Should we accept that not praying is ok now? Yet still I’m very “open minded”. Prove to me that this was done at the time during the Prophet ﷺ or ANY of the sahabas after, and I will accept it. It’s bad to do wrong, it’s worse to accept wrong as right and then propagate it as the correct way.
