You don’t want to wake up years later realising you made a grave mistake.
At Madinah College we see the confusion every day. Muslims worldwide struggle with contradictory information about nikah and divorce. Social media scholars offer quick answers that contradict classical texts. Family telling you to “Go see my Peer Saab/Sheikh”, but you don’t know that he clashes with authentic Islamic teachings
Here’s the reality: Most Muslims have never learned the proper fiqh of marriage and divorce. They’re making life-changing decisions based on incomplete or incorrect information.
Whether that’s because of the limited knowledge and experience they’ve gathered or because some guy with a beard and hat gave them advice.
This course cuts through the noise and gives you authentic Islamic guidance straight from the Quran, Sunnah and classical scholars. No cultural additions. No modern innovations.
Just pure Islamic knowledge that protects your marriage and guides your decisions.

- Roles and Responsibilities: Explore the rights and obligations of both spouses to foster a harmonious marital relationship.
- Divorce in Islam: Study the etiquettes, conditions and procedures of talaq, including the waiting period (iddah).
- Types of Divorce: Differentiate between revocable and irrevocable divorce and understand related rulings.

Why Learn The Fiqh of Nikah & Talaq
Protect Yourself From Invalid Marriages
You might perform an invalid nikah without realising it. Without proper knowledge, you could miss essential requirements that make your marriage binding in Islam.
Separate Culture From Authentic Islamic Law
Cultural practices could lead you away from authentic Islamic teachings. Your family’s traditions might look Islamic but actually contradict what the Quran and Sunnah require.
Navigate Difficult Situations With Confidence
Divorce decisions become more stressful and confusing without proper guidance. When emotions run high, you need clear Islamic principles to guide your choices.
Make Religious Decisions With Certainty
You lack confidence in important life choices when Islamic rulings remain unclear. But when you understand the authentic sources, every decision becomes grounded in solid knowledge.
Save Time and Money
Prevent legal complications by understanding Islamic requirements from the start. Proper knowledge now saves expensive corrections later.
Help Others Avoid Common Mistakes
Armed with proper understanding, you can guide loved ones towards authentic practices.
You become a source of reliable Islamic guidance in your community. Instead of spreading confusion, you help others build marriages on solid Islamic foundations.
On top of that, you’ll be gaining good deeds from the advice you gave them for eternity.
