About Us
What is MARAM?
The Muslim Academic Research and Mentorship Network (MARAM Network) is a global platform dedicated to supporting Muslim researchers, academics, and aspiring lifelong learners at every stage of their academic and professional journey. Rooted in the meaning of Maram, aspiration or goal, we exist to bridge gaps in mentorship, amplify Muslim-led research, and create spaces where scholars can connect, collaborate, and grow. Whether you're a graduate student seeking guidance, a faculty member looking to mentor, or a researcher ready to share your work, MARAM offers curated opportunities, a growing professional community, and a shared commitment to excellence. We believe in the power of faith-informed scholarship and collective support to transform institutions, narratives, and futures.
“The Prophet (SAW) said: When a person dies, all their deeds come to an end except three: continuing charity, beneficial knowledge, and a righteous child who prays for them.”
