Well, I think the best thing to do is get your degree from the university and then go into Islamic studies. Having a degree could have a lot of benefits for you. Like you can get a good job and pay for your Islamic studies tuition yourself.

I say do what you want to do and they will learn to live with it...I am not saying disrespect your parents or anything just do what YOU LOVE to do (occupation wise) and forget about everyone else. I wanted to do that (go to Islamic univ) but no one in my family approved and said it could be done "on the side"...I foolishly listened to them and regret it ever since. I am a double major and getting my masters in psychology so no med school for me...that is not for me... Just please listen to your heart and go with your passion because you will excel in what you love doing.

Parents always feel they are looking for your best interests and majority of the time they are....In terms of choosing your occupation or what you want to major in...that should be completely up to you as long as it is halal...Good luck sister and let us know what happens...

It's good to have duniya education as well in case one needs to fall back on it in time of need. also its' good to have a good balance of both.

Shaykh Abdur-Rahman As-Sa’dee said, “Thus any path a person takes, whether physical or otherwise, something that will help them in acquiring knowledge of the Deen, they enter in the words of the Prophet, “Whoever seeks out a path to acquire knowledge (of the deen), Allah makes easy a path for them to Jannah.”

The position of the people of Islamic knowledge reached such a level that Allah (Jalla Thanaa’uhu wa taqaddasat Asmaa’uhu) and the Angels pray for them!

From Abu Umaamah: Rasul Allah said, “Verily Allah and His angels, even the ant in its hole and the fish in the sea, verily (they all) pray for he who teaches people good.” – authentic, narrated by Tabraanee.

Rasul Allah prayed for them also. He said, as narrated by Zayd ibn Thabit, “May Allah grant light (and happiness and beauty in the face) of someone who hears a hadith from us and memorizes it until he passes it on to others!” – authentic, narrated by Tirmidhi.

And Ibn Al-Jowzee said, “I haven’t seen a flaw more sad in the community than those who stop working even though they have the ability to continue.”

Rasul Allah said, “Whoever studies that which is meant for the sake of Allah, desiring only a piece of the Dunya, he shall not smell the frangrance of Jannah on the Day of Judgement.” – authentic, narrated by Ahmad, and Tirmidhi.

Allah ta’aala says [When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me…] Surah AlBaqarah, 186

Let us pray to Allah now to make this effort we are doing to learn His Deen, to learn His Shariah, sincere for His sake. And that He blesses us by His Mercy to succeed in what we intend. Verily, he has the Power to do anything. Ameen.
