The Madrasah provides full board and lodge facilities for the students.Three meals of a good standard are provided daily. A laundry, tuck shop and a book shop caters for the basic requirements of the students. The Madrasah provides bursaries to many students to pay their fees.
It is our fervent wish and desire that free Islamic education be provided to all our students. However, due to the substantial costs incurred in running the Madrasah, we are constrained to levy some fees. Due to maintaining a very low fee for several years, the Madrasah experienced significant shortfalls in the monthly budget. We are therefore constrained to reluctantly raise the fees to a little more realistic, cost-related level for the current year.
The fee structure for this year is as follows:
As of Shawwaal 1431 / October 2010 the Madrasah fees will be R 3450.00 per term or part thereof for boarding students (R 3450.00 X 3 terms = R 10350.00 per annum) and R2000.00 per term or part thereof for non-boarding students (R 2000.00 X 3 terms = R 6000.00 per annum).
