Our Story

About The Institute

Jamiah Qasimul Uloom (JQU) is an institute established in 2015 to provide the Muslim community with traditional Islamic education. Mufti Ahmed Bemat (d. 2004) and Maulana Asad Bemat (d. 1993) had a vision to start an Islamic seminary in Toronto for the community.

The institute offers a comprehensive curriculum spanning Qur’ān memorisation, the complete Alimiyyah programme, advanced Iftaa studies, and community services — all grounded in the classical tradition of Islamic scholarship.

And indeed I am a distributor (Qasim), and Allah is the only One Who truly gives.

— The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
