The Islamic University of Madinah ( Arabic: الجامعة الإسلامية بالمدينة المنورة) is a public Islamic university in Medina, Saudi Arabia. Established by King Saud bin Abdulaziz in 1961, [1] the institute is said to have been associated with Salafism, while claiming to have exported Salafi-inclined theologians around the world. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] Others disagree and state that the institution is objective and scientific, being detached to any singular ideology. [7] It received institutional academic accreditation without exceptions from the National Commission for Academic Accreditation and Assessment in April 2017. [8]
This university is designated only for Muslim male students. [9]
University students may study Sharia, Qur'an, Usul al-din and Hadith, while non-native speakers may also study Arabic language. The university offers Bachelor of Arts, Master's and Doctorate degrees. [10] Studies at the College of Sharia Islamic law were the first to start when the university opened. It offers scholarship programs for students with accommodation and living expenses covered.[ citation needed]
In 2009, the university opened a Faculty of Engineering. [11] In 2011 the university opened a Faculty of Computer and Information Science. [12] In 2012, the university opened a Faculty of Science for the first time. [13] [14] In 2019, the university announced that it would open a faculty of Judiciary Studies. [15]
In 2019, the university announced that it would begin to offer online degrees through a new e-learning and distance education program. [16] The university currently offers an online bachelor of arts in Sharia and a certificate-granting program in Arabic language for non-native speakers. [17] [18]
