Online Islamic Institute for Women

History

Originally, the Online Islamic Institute for Women was formed by the ICNA Sister's Wing in March 2007, aiming to enable sisters involved in da'wah and teaching to advance their knowledge and understanding of Islam. Later in 2013, OIIW, after considerable growth and development alhamdulillah, came under the umbrella of ILF (Islamic Learning Foundation). We now offer a three year diploma course and short refresher courses. These classes are led by Islamic scholars that are well-versed in their fields of knowledge.​
