Our story

Founded on 28 April 2024

The Center was founded by Ustadh Farid Abdul Samed and is named in honour of Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), remembered in the Constitution as an exemplary scholar of the Ummah.

Our education brings together ta’lim (knowledge) and tarbiyah (character development). The Constitution guides how we learn, teach, conduct ourselves and govern the Center.

We are committed to making learning accessible through online classes while maintaining respect, sincerity, academic effort and good manners.
