The establishment of the Islamic University of Medina in 1961, as per Saudi documentation, was envisioned to propagate Islamic teachings globally. By 1995, its student body numbered 3,058, supported by a staff cohort of 378. Approximately 80 percent of the student populace comprises Saudi nationals, with the remaining 20 percent representing international students.
Madina, echoing the ethos of its namesake, champions inclusivity and rejects hatred, advocating for authentic knowledge and hope. Rooted in the Muhammadan principle, it embraces diversity while emphasizing our shared humanity, transcending differences of color, ethnicity, language, culture, and creed. Committed to holistic development, Madina seeks to restore compassion and love as central tenets, guided by the prophetic mission of universal benevolence. Rejecting interpretations of the Quran that breed violence or disdain, the institution promotes academic neutrality and fosters respect for diverse traditions, religions, and cultures. Continuing the legacy of Madina's reformist movement, Madina envisions a global community founded on mutual respect and the practical application of the Golden Rule, aspiring toward a world characterized by harmony and empathy.
