Sanatayn is for sisters who want an ordered route through several Islamic sciences rather than isolated short classes. Both cohorts cover Qurʾān, Arabic, Fiqh, Hadith and the Prophetic biography, with regular study and assessment.

A deliberate learning environment
A dedicated space can make it easier to ask personal questions, participate in recitation and discuss women’s Fiqh with confidence. Our sisters-only classes are taught by women and designed around privacy, respect and consistent participation.
The courses remain academically structured: clear curricula, live teaching, course materials, assessments where applicable and a Student Portal that keeps learning organised between sessions.
For the September 2026 intake, Ocean of Islam offers Sanatayn Weekend for ages 14+ and Sanatayn Weekday for adult sisters aged 18+. The planned Tajweed course has been cancelled.
Sanatayn means “two years”. A Sanatayn course is a structured two-year foundation in Islamic studies. At Ocean of Islam, sisters study Qurʾān and Tajweed, Arabic, Fiqh, Hadith and Seerah, with ʿAqīdah included in the weekday curriculum. Read our complete guide to Sanatayn courses.
Yes. These live classes are taught by qualified female teachers in private, sisters-only learning environments. Each course page explains its teacher, format and safeguarding arrangements.
Yes. Sessions are taught live online at UK times, with course materials and administration supported through the Ocean of Islam Student Portal. They are live cohorts rather than self-paced video courses.
Both Sanatayn routes begin from clear foundations and provide broad, structured study across several Islamic sciences. The planned focused Tajweed route has been cancelled for this intake.
Sanatayn Weekend welcomes sisters aged 14 and above; Sanatayn Weekday is an adult cohort for sisters aged 18 and above. Students under 18 require parental or guardian consent.
Recordings are not routinely distributed, in keeping with the privacy of students and teachers in a sisters-only environment. Students should plan to attend live and use the course materials and class support to keep up.
Compare the course details, choose the schedule you can sustain, and enrol for the September 2026 intake.
