Dean's Message

Thanks be to Allah, Peace be upon the seal of prophets, UQU College of Shari'a has a seventy- year long history of dedication, spreading knowledge, and sustaining Islamic teachings.

The history of College of Shari'a goes back to 1369 H. It was founded by the late King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud to mark a new systematic form of education and Shari'a and Islamic studies, aside from the religious lessons that were offered in the vicinity of the Grand Mosque and Kaaba. Throughout its rich history, UQU College of Shari'a have been a home for several esteemed religious scholars and students from KSA, Arab World, Islamic countries, Europe and the USA.  

Presently, the college makes strides to apply quality standards and acquire academic accreditation through its Shari'a program and other programs that are being designed.  

I hope that our website helps fulfill the college mission and gives insight about its state of affairs. In conclusion, I pray to Allah, the Supreme-Answerer, to grant success to the college and everyone who has made an effort to contribute to its development and progress.

May peace be upon Prophet Muhammad, his family, and companions.
