In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Thanks to Allah who knew with the pen, teach man what he did not know, and prayers and peace be upon the most honorable of the Messengers, and upon all his family and companions.

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the College of Islamic Studies at Al Wasl University. This college carries a noble mission: to spread balanced Islamic

knowledge, promote the values of moderation, and elevate authentic Islamic thought through the education and training of students, and the preparation of researchers in various fields of Sharia and Islamic sciences in the United Arab Emirates—Dubai.

At our college, we believe that Islamic knowledge must be presented with a contemporary vision that considers the needs of the Ummah and engages with current issues, all while remaining firmly rooted in its authentic origins. Accordingly, our academic programs combine tradition with modernity, sound scholarly foundations with practical skills, under the supervision of a distinguished group of scholars and specialized professors.

We strive to make our college a nurturing environment for academic creativity, a beacon for serious research, and a platform for constructive dialogue—serving knowledge and society, and fulfilling Islam’s message of building individuals and communities on the principles of mercy, justice, and knowledge.

We ask Allah for success and guidance, and for His blessings upon the efforts of everyone—students, faculty, and administrative staff—as we work together to realize the aspirations of our blessed university.

Peace and blessings be upon you all

Prof.. Ibrahem Rababa

Dean, College of Islamic Studies
