He graduated with honors from Dar al-Mustafa’s rigorous Alamiyya Program. The three-year program is the highest level of Shariah studies offered at Dar al-Mustafa in Tarim\, Yemen\, and is preceded by seven years of classical training in the ancillary\, revelatory\, and theoretical sciences. \n\n\n\nAfter ten years of meticulous full-time study with qualified scholars\, Shaykh Zakariya was appointed a lecturer at Dar al-Mustafa. He has been granted authorizations (ijaza) in the fields of Canonical Qur’anic Recitations (‘ilm al-qira’at)\, Hadith Narration and Understanding (Riwaya wa Dirayat al-Hadith)\, and Islamic Law (Fiqh) in the Shafi School. \n\n\n\nShaykh Zakaria is also qualified to teach Qur’anic Exegesis (tafsir al-Qur’an)\, Ethics (‘ilm al-akhlaq)\, Legal Theory (usul al-fiqh)\, Ilm al-Kalam (Scholastic Theology)\, Logic (mantiq)\, Dialectics (al-bahth wa al-munazara)\, Arabic morphology (sarf) Arabic grammar (nahw)\, Arabic rhetoric (balagha)\, and Arabic literature (adab). \n\n\n\nHis teachers include Habib Umar bin Hafiz\, Habib Ali al-Mashhur bin Hafiz\, Habib Abu Bakr al-Adani al-Mashhur\, Habib Muhammad bin Abdullah al-Aydarus\, Shaykh Umar al-Khatib\, and others. \n\n\n\nIn late 2021\, Shaykh Zakaria Abdelaziz returned to Canada and currently serves as imam at Masjid Vaughan and instructor at Dar al-Burhan.
