    Moneer Tawfik

    Thank God that I am here with Respect Graduate School today. The comprehensive overview of the studies of Islam from world-class educators is what lured me to this school. Respect's rich curriculum and the availability of the educators are fundamental to the development of students like myself.

    Ahmed Naggayev

    One of the very many values Respect Graduate school gave me is the self-confidence. I compare myself before and after I joined the Respect Graduate School. I’m more self-confident now since I can discuss Islam with non-Muslims more comfortably.
