HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Utrujjah Academy is not a new name at all when it comes into dishing out Islamic knowledge to people globally. The name Utrujjah which stands for citron in English Language was what exactly the Prophet Sallah Allah ‘Alayhi Wasallam compared a believer who always reads the Quran with. We envisaged that our products will then be having that sweet fragrance and a very delicious taste.
The good work has started as far back as 1990 (1411AH). Then the institution was a form of mobile school where a lot of Nigerians and non – Nigerians both within the shores of the country and those in diaspora were benefiting from the vast knowledge of our Shaykh Doctor AbdulQadir Abdullateef, though the classes were then informal – in the sense that it was mobile and at the same time, a one – on – one approach style.
A lot of researches and groundwork were all that was needed to make the school stand on its own – this was actually done by Doctor. And on 30th May 2022 (10 Dhul Qadah 1444), Utrujjah became a formally established citadel of Islamic teachings where varieties of knowledge pertaining to Islam is being given out.
The Academy has been registered as a full – fledged institution that has been recognized by The Federal Republic of Nigeria to teach fellow Nigerians and non – Nigerians all sorts of Islamic Religious knowledge, Quran, Western Education, Islamic Finance etc.
We shouldn’t forget that the academy is set to include boarding facilities in her package for the coming academic session in addition to the fact that she has been having hands in online teachings from time immemorial.
