FAQ

What does the Yaqeen Institute blog cover?

The Yaqeen Institute blog publishes accessible essays and reflections by Yaqeen scholars and contributors on Qur'an, hadith, theology, history, spirituality, contemporary social issues, family and parenting, da‘wah, and Muslim identity. Blogs complement the longer, peer-reviewed research papers with shorter, more topical writing.

Are Yaqeen blog articles free to read?

Yes. Every Yaqeen blog article is free to read, free to share, and free to use for teaching and da‘wah. Yaqeen Institute is a 501(c)(3) non-profit (EIN: 81-2822877) funded by donations, which keeps all content accessible without paywalls or subscriptions.

Are Yaqeen blogs the same as Yaqeen research papers?

No. Yaqeen research papers are long-form, peer-reviewed scholarly publications (browse at yaqeeninstitute.org/read/papers). Yaqeen blogs are shorter, accessible essays — typically 1,000–3,000 words — written for a general Muslim audience. Both go through Yaqeen's editorial review before publication.

Who writes the Yaqeen Institute blog?

Yaqeen blogs are written by a roster of Yaqeen scholars, fellows, visiting researchers, imams, and educators. Each article lists its author on the page, and full author profiles are available at yaqeeninstitute.org/team.

How can I find Yaqeen blogs on a specific topic?

All Yaqeen blogs are organized by topic at yaqeeninstitute.org/read/blogs — filter by Qur'an, Hadith, Theology, History, Family & Community, Politics & Identity, Psychology & Mental Health, and more.

Can Yaqeen blog articles be used in classrooms or study circles?

Yes. Yaqeen content is explicitly licensed for free educational use. Teachers, imams, MSAs, and study circles can use blog articles in coursework, halaqas, and online programs without permission or licensing fees.
