Ustādhah Safiyyah Ali is an Islamic scholar who was born and raised in the Bay Area. After graduating from American High School in 2010, she began her pursuit of Islamic knowledge by learning the Arabic language and eventually traveled to South Africa with her husband, Muftī Rohullah. Ustādhah Safiyyah completed a five-year course at the girls’ institute, Miftāh al-Ūloom, and was granted certification in the Islamic sciences, such as the Arabic language, fiqh, tafsīr, ʿaqīdah, ʾusūl, and ḥadīth. During this time, she also completed and received certification in the six main books of ḥadīth, al-ṣiḥāḥ al-sittah, including the Ṣaḥīḥayn (Bukhārī and Muslim). Upon returning to the US in 2016, Ustādhah has been serving the Bay Area community by presenting various lectures, classes, and youth programs under the auspices of the A’ishah Institute.

Over the next 6 years, she studied Tafsir, Hadith, Fiqh, Aqeedah, Usul (foundations of jurisprudence), and Arabic Grammar and gained guidance from many esteemed scholars of England. During this time, she received ijazaat from scholars in the Islamic Sciences with isnād (a linked chain of the prophetic traditions from herself to the Prophet) in numerous books of hadith. Since then, she has been involved in teaching Islamic Studies and lecturing in various mosques across the Bay Area.
