Start your journey with Muntakhab Nisab today. Your soul is waiting.
Introduction In an era where Muslims face an overwhelming flood of information, yet a severe drought of authentic spiritual connection with the Quran, the late Dr. Israr Ahmed (1932–2010)—a renowned Pakistani Islamic scholar, philosopher, and founder of Tanzeem-e-Islami —offered a practical solution. He developed a systematic, phased curriculum known as "Muntakhab Nisab" (Selected Syllabus). This program is designed not for academic scholars but for ordinary Muslims who sincerely wish to develop a deep, personal, and transformative relationship with the Holy Quran. What is Muntakhab Nisab? The term Muntakhab means "selected" or "chosen," and Nisab means "syllabus" or "curriculum." Unlike traditional educational courses that focus on Arabic grammar, jurisprudence (fiqh), or rote memorization without understanding, Dr. Israr’s Muntakhab Nisab is a thematic and sequential study of the Quran . Its primary goal is to bring about Iman-e-Mufassal (detailed faith) and Iman-e-Tahqeeqi (verified, realized faith) in the heart of the believer. muntakhab nisab dr israr ahmed
