CIRCULAR NO: JMT/095/23 Date: October 10, 2023
The Africa Federation Secretariat is pleased to inform of the Launch of The As Sirat Scheme under the AFED Tabligh Board (AFTAB).
This Scheme is primarily to support our youth (boys and girls) from the constituent Jamaats of the Federation of KSI Jamaats of Africa (AFED) who consciously and sincerely desire to pursue Islamic Higher Education in order to acquire knowledge and better understanding of the Religion of Islam and the Madh’ab of Ahlulbayt (‘A).
We encourage youths who possess the required basic secular education, preferably ‘A’ levels education to seek Higher Islamic Education by means of full-time studies in recognized and reputable institutions as recommended by AFTAB.
The grant shall be provided to the deserving candidates who meet the criteria set by AFTAB and will be for a maximum period of 7 years. The amount of grant shall not exceed US$2,500 per annum.
The successful candidates on completion of their studies will be expected to provide services to their constituent Jamaat of origin or in another Jamaat under AFED, as shall be determined by AFTAB where there exists a need.
Interested candidates are required to contact the AFTAB Secretariat through their Email aftab@africafederation.org for more details.
