The Cambridge Muslim College supports the development of training and Islamic scholarship to help meet the many challenges facing Britain today. The college is dedicated to maintaining academic excellence and pushing the boundaries of Islamic learning in the West. Drawing on resources and expertise in Cambridge and beyond, the college’s mission is to help translate the many existing strengths of British Muslims into stronger, more dynamic institutions and communities.
Thanks in part to historic connections to the institutions of Islamic scholarship in South Asia, Britain shares in one of the strongest traditions of Muslim religious training that survives in the modern world. As a result, British Muslims have a better foundation for developing Muslim thought arguably than any other country in the West.
