What is the
MYNA Seminary
We are excited to launch our new collaboration with MYNA! The Miftaah-MYNA Seminary was created to provide sacred knowledge to the next generation of Muslims and Muslim leaders. Its purpose is to instill confidence in our youth leaders and community members through Islamic education in order to help them grow intellectually and spiritually. The courses will be taught online and will be accessible and affordable for all students.
What is the MYNA?
MYNA operates nationwide in a beautiful cycle centered around youth serving youth. These youth learn to be confident and empowered Muslims that become productive and engaged members of society.
As the youth organization of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), MYNA has touched the lives of many American and Canadian Muslim youth over the past 30 years offering the social support and national networks to mold "MYNA kids" into leaders in their local communities and the next generation of Muslim activists in America. Today, MYNA is growing bigger and better, spanning across more regions than ever and building a massive nationwide network of dedicated Muslim youth thinkers and activists who are determined to become leading voices for sociopolitical development and change in their own communities and abroad.

This class dives into two of the most powerful chapters of the Qur’an, Surah al-Waqi‘ah and Surah al-Rahman, which vividly portray the realities of the Hereafter and the countless blessings of Allah. Through a careful study of their verses, students will reflect on the inevitability of the Day of Judgment, the distinction between the people of Paradise and Hellfire, and the repeated reminder of Allah’s favors that call for gratitude. With both awe-inspiring warnings and hopeful promises, this course offers a balanced approach to strengthening one’s faith and deepening one’s connection with the Qur’an.

Guidelines for Graduation
The Miftaah Lite Seminary Curriculum is centered around 6 Core Subjects
One of the main factors that distinguish our program is its graduation requirements. To complete the program and graduate, students must receive a passing score for each course.

"I am so grateful there is a place to openly discuss issues of faith"
Masha'Allah each class brought with it new gems of learning Alhumdulillah ! I am so grateful there is a place to openly discuss issues of faith such as the women of Medina did with the Prophet (SAWS). I see Miftaah as following the Prophetic tradition, and may its fruits bring generations of scholars and da'iyyahs to continue.
