About us

Hadrat Khalifatul Masih^rh launched the blessed Waqf-e-Nau Scheme with a vision that a dedicated group of children will be trained to serve the ever growing needs of the Jama‘at. These children will thus become the frontline helpers in the preparation for the final victory of Islam.

For Waqifin Nau (male children) there are avenues to obtain extensive religious education if they like, such as through enrolling in Jamia Ahmadiyya Canada. However, for Waqifat (female children) such an institution did not exist in Canada.

And thus, to fulfill these needs, Majlis Shura Canada 2009, proposed the launch of ‘Aisha Academy Canada; an institution for the purpose of moral and intellectual development of girls. This was graciously approved by Hadrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, Khalifatul Masih V (may Allah be his Helper) and under the instruction of Huzur-e-Anwar (may Allah be his Helper), ‘Aisha Academy Canada officially opened on September 20th, 2011 in the upper floor of Bait-e-Nusrat, a Lajna building in Vaughan, Ontario. Under the close guidance and supervision of Respected Lal Khan Malik Sahib, Amir Jama‘at Canada and National Secretary Ta`lim Sahib, ‘Aisha Academy Canada launched two programs: the 3 Year Mubashira Diploma and the 1 Year Certificate Program.

‘Aisha Academy’s humble beginning started with one principal, two teachers, and one office administrator who dedicated the next three years of their lives to the service of this institution. The first batch of students, also referred to as “The ‘Aisha Academy Bouquet” consisted of 12 girls, from different walks of life, who united under the common goal of gaining religious knowledge to serve and perpetuate the true message of Islam.

In February 2023, following the recommendation of the National Ta`lim Board, the ‘Aisha Academy Board was created to oversee the operations of ‘Aisha Academy Canada and the Girls’ Hifzul Qur’an School and to revive the mission and vision of this blessed institution. The ‘Aisha Academy Board will ensure that both institutions maintain the highest standards of religious education and serve as exemplars of learning for Ahmadi girls and women. The board will provide direct supervision, strategic direction, performance evaluation, and administrative oversight to ‘Aisha Academy. Additionally, it will provide immediate assistance and address any concerns that may arise in a timely manner.

The ‘Aisha Academy board has removed the age limit so more Ahmadi women can benefit from the institution. They have introduced many new courses to make ‘Aisha Academy accessible to almost all Ahmadi women & girls.

May Allah the Almighty bless these changes and make ‘Aisha Academy Canada and the Girls’ Hifzul Qur’an School beacons of knowledge and guidance for our girls. Ameen!
