The Rahman Academy was established in 2015 within the valleys of Bradford, UK. It was initiated with the sole intention to bring female scholarship in Islamic sciences to light & empower women through knowledge and understanding of Deen.
It started with a single intention and has now grown with over 250 students currently signed up and studying different courses and modules.
Ustadha Rummana is the founder and head teacher of The Rahman Academy. With over 10 years of teaching experience her main goal was to rekindle the love of the religion into hearts through understanding and practise.
Over the last decade Ustadha has been working extremely hard within the religious field to bring a warm, safe and all inclusive environment, where women feel happiness to come and attend.
Now venturing online to those who can’t access the physical Madrasa, we endeavour to bring the traditional sciences to every laptop throughout the world.
MEET THE TEAM
Ustadha rummana shaheen
Ustadha initiated her Aalimiyya Dars at the age of sixteen. Endeavouring through the traditional sciences under the prestigious tutelege of the eminent Shaykh Riyadh and Shaykh Naveed Jameel ash-Shaami, she prosperously graduated from Mohiuddin Girls College, Burnley, UK. Subsequently, Ustadha progressed to further studies under the guidance of the renowned and authoritative Mufti Ashfaq Ahmed Ridawi (May Allah grant them Jannah) at Sayyida Khadija Institute, Nottingham, UK.
In 2018 Ustadha travelled to Tarīm in Yemen to the famous Dar al-Zahra which is a school founded by the great Habib Umar bin al-Hafiz.
Many sisters have accepted Islam at the hand of Ustadha Rummana, throughout Ustādha’s student life she was a intuitive role model to fellow students; encouraging and promoting servitude to the religion and thereby left as a remarkable example for the students of upcoming generations. She is oriented with vigilance and spirit which allows her to grasp the minds of lost individuals and accordingly inspire them towards the truth. A charismatic individual, who beholds great passion to gather the bewildered youth towards the path of Islam and plant within their hearts the seed of love for Allaah (the most high) and His beloved messenger, peace be upon him.

Sister munazza shafique
Sister Munazza Shafique from a young age has been fortunate enough to have been surrounded by family who have themselves been students and teachers of the Deen, which inspired her to study the Deen. From the tender age of twelve, she started seeking knowledge at various institutes, but she couldn’t seem to find that true connection with the religion.
In the summer of 2019 she decided to enrol onto the Aalimiyyah course at The Rahman Academy, hoping to grow her knowledge further.
Alhamdulillah sister Munazza has graduated from the three year programme and is now training to be a teacher as well as advancing onto the fourth year.
Sister Munazza is currently teaching the following topics at the Academy; Fiqh, Aqidah, Seerah & Tajweed.
