Supporting Al-Ikhlas Training Academy is more than a donation — it is sadaqah jariyah, a charity that keeps rewarding you long after you give. Every dollar helps teach a child Qur’an, salah, and love for the deen — rewards that continue with every letter they recite and every prayer they perform.
Families travel from cities across Michigan because the Academy keeps tuition low so that no Muslim child is turned away from Islamic education due to finances. By giving, you become part of that mission — helping raise a generation grounded in faith, character, and knowledge. 🤲📚🌙
✨ Give what you can — even $10 can plant seeds of guidance that last a lifetime.

With deep sadness, we share that the Founder and Director of Al-Ikhlas Training Academy, Imam Nadir Ahmad, returned to Allah on January 22, 2026.
With the permission of his family and the ATA School Board, we have launched a sadaqah jariyah campaign to honor his legacy and continue his lifelong mission of providing accessible Islamic education.
For 35 years, Imam Nadir dedicated his life to serving Muslim families, founding Detroit’s only Pre-K–12 Islamic school and never turning a child away due to financial hardship. His impact lives on through the thousands of students and families he served.
Please keep Imam Nadir in your du‘a and pray that Allah (SWT) grants him the highest ranks of Jannah and grants patience and strength to his family and community.
A legacy that will continue for generations.
