Qalam Institute was founded in February 2009 at the Islamic Association of Mid-Cities in Colleyville, TX with the singular goal of developing a 1,000 person student body in DFW that was dedicated to organized and consistent Islamic learning.Focused on creating an educational environment receptive to everyone, Qalam Institute developed a three-pronged approach of practicality, integration, and professionalism.Practicality: Classes were to be held every 4-6 weeks to orient the community around the Qur'an and lessons essential to developing the community and being practicing Muslims in America.Integration: The Institute would work with the imams and scholars in the DFW metroplex to benefit the larger community with their aggregate skills and talents.Professionalism: With a dedicated volunteer base and formal system for spreading the word, established media and social media outlets would be utilized to reflect the importance of not only the message, but the method in which the message is delivered.Launching with the Qur'anic Empowerment Conference, and continuing with tafseer series and day-long seminars, Qalam Institute began a new of era of high quality consistent Islamic education for a local audience.Since 2014, we have only been adding more instructors, more onsite programs, and more online offerings. 2014 marked the year of the first graduating class of the Seminary, Ustadh Abdelrahman Murphy implementing a curriculum for youth and community development, Mufti Hussain Kamani joining the team, and the launch of the two-week long Seerah Intensive.This year we are excited about the Seminary growing to provide a full Alimiyyah (Scholarship) Program, a Qalam-led Hajj, additional instructors, family retreats, a diverse array of new intensives and workshops, and an interactive system for people to access Qalam's unique educational methodology from the comfort of their own homes.
