Our institute was established in May 2017, as a center to produce future Muslim, American world leaders. We were initially operating in a local masjid. However, within a year, our program and in turn, it’s needs grew. We required a larger physical space that aligned with our vision of an Islamic University in which pioneers of each science of Islam are produced. With the mercy of Allah, we found the place we were dreaming of, an ideal 20,000 sq. ft building with abundant classrooms, a musalla, offices, a cafeteria, a beautiful atrium, six acres of land, and more than 200 parking spaces. We founded a sister organization named Islamic Center of Centerville (ICC) and purchased the building. In August of 2019, soon after moving our operations to this new home, located in the heart of the Centerville/Miamisburg area, we saw extraordinary growth at an unexpected speed. There was a flood of people flocking to the center from all age groups.

Muslim communities in America will not deal with a shortage of doctors, engineers, or IT professionals, and lawyers, etc. however one of the challenges that we are already facing is the debilitating lack of traditional ulema, muftis and scholars. “Scholars are the heirs of the Prophets” (Tirmidhi 2682); serving as beacons of guidance for people to achieve success in the Two Abodes.
Our goal at Jamia Falah ul Darain, at the Islamic Center of Centerville, is to produce future leaders and guides for our Muslim generations in this country for centuries to come; young adults that are true ambassadors of Traditional Islamic values taught by our Beloved Prophet ﷺ and embedded deep in his Sahabah رضي الله عنهم.
