Why we started

“When a woman is educated, a generation is educated.” A mother is her child’s first school, and the knowledge she carries shapes her whole family.

Too many girls in our community have had to choose between religious learning and a modern education, or have received neither. By the grace of Allah, a group of well-wishers in Vellore came together to change that.

They founded Kulliyatul Hidaayah, a college where young women receive a sound Islamic education together with the modern education and skills they need, in a safe and caring environment.

Our vision

To shape young women into leaders with moral wisdom and practical ability, who become valuable contributors to their families, communities and nation, role models in personal, family and social life, with a deep sense of service and welfare.

Our mission

A modern curriculum that gives equal care to worldly and religious education, so that students gain confidence through knowledge, live by strong Islamic values, and take part in every area of social life with Islamic guidance.

Our motto

اللّٰهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْأَلُكَ عِلْمًا نَافِعًا

O Allah, we ask You for beneficial knowledge.
