In the Faculty, there is one department called the Foundation of Fiqh. Its study plan is aimed at equipping students with both Sharia’s general knowledge and special qualification in the Foundation of Fiqh.

The graduates are expected to be capable to work in Sharia, Awqaf, the General Iftaa Department, Quran and Islamic centers in Jordan and abroad.

The Department is proud of its students’ achievements in the Proficiency Exam held in 2016/2017 and the next two academic years, as they came top among public and private universities. Since the first time the exam was held, they have never been less than third.

As is the case with other departments, the students should take field training in education, Islamic courts or Islamic banks.

There is also a recitation lab launched in 2007/2008.
