About the Academy
Al-Haqq Foundation Academy grew out of the Al-Haqq Foundation and its masjid community on the West side of Indianapolis. The school describes itself as a primary school of knowledge and human development, and it is run by the same people who lead the prayer.
What we teach
A rigorous academic program approved by the Indiana Department of Education, with Qur’anic studies, Islamic studies, Arabic and Islamic history woven through it, so that students develop a strong foundation in both American society and Islamic principles.

What shapes an Al-Haqq education
Six things we ask of every student, and of ourselves.
- Learning
Curiosity is worship.
Seeking knowledge is an obligation on every Muslim. We teach children to ask, to read, and to keep going.
- Diversity
Every nation, one classroom.
Families from West Africa, the Middle East, South Asia and Indiana itself learn side by side. Nobody is a guest here.
- Integrity
Al-Haqq means the truth.
Our name is our standard. Honesty in work, in speech and in the small moments no one is watching.
- Innovation
Old wisdom, new tools.
Technology in every classroom and an approach to teaching that changes when the evidence does.
- Respect
For teachers, parents and each other.
Adab before knowledge: how a student carries themselves matters as much as what they know.
- Service
Knowledge that gives back.
Students serve the masjid, the neighborhood and the city, because that is what the knowledge is for.
Leadership grounded in faith and learning.
