About Us

EDUCATION IS THE HEART AND PULSE

DAARUL ARQAM

Melbourne is the education state of Australia. We strive to stimulate people through webinars, seminars, and ongoing courses to be better human beings and to develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of life and its challenges. We have engaged with the local community and understand their immediate needs. We thereafter developed our services accordingly with education being our focus overshadowing each of the sub-divisions.

Our Journey

journey1

Daarul Arqam Australia started in early 2019,praying Jummua prayers on the grass in Dandenong Park. Through the heat and rainwe persevered and eventually we moved to a community hall during the winter. Within a few months Daarul Arqam under the leadership of Mufti Zeeyad Ravat, grew in itsidentity and membership, providing educational courses, wellbeing support, women’s programs, revert care and da’wah,youth programs and of course welfare support to those most needy around the globe.

In the meantime, Ramadhan was upon us and so we conducted Taraweeh prayers and had our own fundraising events and iftars which brought us much needed funds. We then acquired a new rented remises in Hallam, a commercial property which was converted into a musallah, offices and classrooms and a purpose built studio. Then Covid hit. DAA went online for the next year broadcasting lectures, guest speakers and panel discussions, shot from our new studiosreaching thousands of views globally.
