Meet Our Co-Founder:

Omar Ali

Co-Founder & Executive Director, Irtiqa’ Learning Center

“Faith. Purpose. Legacy.”

Omar Ali’s journey from an English Language Learner to a passionate educator and founder of Irtiqa’ Learning Center is a powerful testament to resilience, vision, and service.

Driven by his own experiences navigating the U.S. education system as an ELL student, Omar dedicated his life to creating a learning space where Muslim youth feel seen, supported, and spiritually grounded. With over a decade of experience in education—including roles as a para-professional, Arabic teacher, and ELL instructor—he brings both professional insight and personal empathy to Irtiqa’s model.

Omar holds a Master’s degree in English Language Learning and is trained in evidence-based instructional strategies like ENVoY, RC PPIS, and the READ Act. His deep belief in the potential of each child fuels Irtiqa’s mission to combine high-quality academics (via Connections Academy) with a warm, faith-centered environment. By assembling a dedicated team of Qur’an and Islamic Studies educators from Egypt, he ensures every student has the tools to thrive intellectually and spiritually.

But Irtiqa’ is more than just a school—it’s a legacy. For Omar, this initiative is about building a lasting, God-centered impact that uplifts families and communities for generations to come. He hopes Irtiqa’ becomes a sanctuary for youth: a place where they build character, grow in deen, and discover the purpose Allah has written for them.

Spiritual Leadership Spotlight: Shaykh Mahmoud

“Guidance rooted in tradition. Leadership shaped by compassion.”

At the heart of Irtiqa’ Learning Center’s spiritual mission is Shaykh Mahmoud, a respected Islamic scholar, teacher, and community guide who serves as the Center’s Senior Qur’an and Islamic Studies Advisor. With decades of experience in Islamic education, Qur’an memorization, and youth mentorship, Shaykh Mahmoud is a pillar of knowledge and leadership for both students and families.

Born and raised in Egypt—where he received formal religious training from some of the most esteemed institutions—Shaykh Mahmoud brings with him a deep reverence for classical Islamic scholarship. He holds multiple Ijazahs in Qur’anic recitation and memorization and is known for his gentle teaching approach that connects traditional knowledge with the real-world challenges today’s youth face.

His teaching style blends structured memorization with heartfelt spiritual reflection, helping students not only recite the Qur’an correctly, but live by its principles. At Irtiqa’, Shaykh Mahmoud leads Qur’an and Islamic Studies curriculum development, provides mentorship to students, and oversees religious programming—ensuring authenticity, relevance, and consistency in all aspects of Islamic instruction.

As a spiritual mentor, his presence is central to Irtiqa’s identity: a space where children and teens are not only academically supported but also spiritually nurtured. Parents and students alike describe him as approachable, wise, and deeply committed to cultivating a love of Islam in the next generation.

Shaykh Mahmoud’s vision is to help build a generation of confident Muslim youth who understand their faith, live it with purpose, and contribute to their communities with clarity and compassion. His dedication reflects the broader mission of Irtiqa’—to be a place where learning is tied to faith, and where young people find belonging, growth, and guidance..
