Biography

Mawlana Mansur Ahmed
Founder & Instructor in Arabic Studies

Mawlana Mansur Ahmed completed the traditional ʿĀlimiyyah programme at the Institute of Islamic Education, Dewsbury, where he spent seven years studying Arabic and the core Islamic sciences under experienced scholars. During his studies, he received ijāzah (authorisation) from his teachers, and the programme is recognised as being equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree in Islamic Sciences.

He further developed his Arabic language proficiency by studying under Moroccan scholars Shaykh Tawfeeq and Shaykh Haatim, with whom he studied Arabic for six years and completed A-Levels in Arabic.

Mawlana Mansur Ahmed specialises in teaching Arabic grammar (Nahw), morphology (Sarf), Arabic reading, and foundational Arabic language studies. He has several years of teaching experience and works with a wide range of students, including beginners, adults, madrasah students, and those preparing for ʿĀlimiyyah programmes.

He is also the author of 19 Essential Lessons in Arabic Grammar. The book was written to address a common gap he observed while studying and teaching Arabic: many students struggle due to weaknesses in their foundational understanding of grammar. Through his teaching and writing, he aims to strengthen these foundations and help students progress confidently in their Arabic studies.
