How trust is protected
Everything on this page is already promised somewhere on this site — in program pages, partnership terms, and policies. Here it is in one place, the way a parent or a masjid board would want to read it: plainly, with a pointer to where each commitment lives.
- 01
Same-gender supervision
Boys' cohorts are led by male mentors. Any late-running or off-site activity — outings, retreats, evening events — runs with same-gender supervision. This is not an internal habit; it is a written standard in our masjid partnership terms, which means an institution can hold us to it.
Where this lives: Hilaq — partnership standards - 02
Attendance and reporting
Attendance is logged and reviewed rather than assumed, and mentors write reports on a real schedule rather than producing them when someone asks. A student who stops showing up is noticed the same week — that is half the point of a circle this size.
Where this lives: Our Philosophy — ihsan as a standard - 03
Published standards, reviewed quarterly
Every cohort carries 12-month targets — 70%+ sustained weekly attendance among them — and progress is reviewed quarterly through attendance logs, surveys, and mentor reports. The targets are published, so falling short is visible.
Where this lives: Ihsan Circles — our standards - 04
Money, in writing
Tuition is published for every program that has a fixed price, Private Study carries a stated range with a written quote before anything is owed, sliding-scale seats exist, and no sincere student is turned away for inability to pay. Refund terms live in the Terms of Use, not in a conversation.
Where this lives: Support — how giving works - 05
Your child's data
We collect the minimum needed to run a program, we do not knowingly collect information directly from a child, and a parent or guardian may ask us to review, correct, or delete their child's information at any time. The privacy policy names our actual vendors instead of running boilerplate.
Where this lives: Privacy Policy — minors' data - 06
Financial oversight
Ihsan Circle is fiscally sponsored by Ideal Foundation, an established 501(c)(3) — donations are tax-deductible and finances sit under an organization with its own reporting obligations, not under one person.

If Something Ever Feels Off
Concerns go to a person, not a queue
Any question or concern — about a session, a mentor, a policy, anything — goes directly to the founder through the channels on the contact page: email or WhatsApp, no form required. Parents never need an appointment to raise something.
