Who We Are
About Illuminating Hearts Institute
A community rooted in faith, knowledge, and service to the Ummah.
A community rooted in faith, knowledge, and service to the Ummah.
Illuminating Hearts Institute is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded with a singular purpose: to make authentic, high-quality Islamic education accessible to the Muslim community in Central Florida and beyond.
We believe that knowledge is the foundation of a strong Ummah. Through our programs, we strive to connect hearts to the Quran, to the teachings of the Prophet (PBUH) and the Ahlul Bayt (AS), and to one another — building a community grounded in faith, ethics, and unity.
Our work spans live educational sessions, community events, scholarly Q&A, and ongoing translation projects — all designed to bring the light of Islamic knowledge to every home and heart.

Illuminating Hearts Institute Corp is a federally recognized tax-exempt organization. All donations are fully tax-deductible in the United States.
Illuminating Hearts Institute was born from a vision — a vision of a Muslim community deeply connected to its faith, united in purpose, and empowered by knowledge.
We recognized a need in the Central Florida Muslim community for consistent, authentic, and accessible Islamic education. Too many families were seeking reliable guidance rooted in the Quran and the teachings of the Ahlul Bayt (AS), but finding few structured opportunities to learn together.
From that recognition, Illuminating Hearts Institute was established — not just as an educational organization, but as a community home. A place where children, adults, and families could come together to learn, grow, and strengthen their connection to Allah.
Today, our programs reach families across Central Florida and an ever-growing online community, offering weekly classes, community events, and scholarly resources that bring the light of Islamic knowledge to all who seek it.
Authentic Islamic scholarship accessible to all, grounded in the Quran and Sunnah.
Building bridges within the community, bringing families and generations together.
Nurturing Islamic values in children and adults alike, strengthening the family unit.
Rigorous, authentic scholarship that honors the depth and beauty of Islamic tradition.
Every program we offer is built on a foundation of authentic scholarship, accessibility, and community.
