About this program
ISNA’s 2026 Hajja Razia Sharif Sheikh program offered twenty-six $2,000 scholarships for Islamic studies and journalism. Those fields make this a targeted funding lead rather than an award to assume is available for every degree. The current ISNA general page also sets incoming-freshman requirements; students in another stage of study should obtain a provider answer before planning an application.
For a future cycle, compare your actual degree and intended courses with the published field wording. A general interest in religion or writing is not the same as meeting a program’s field requirement. Record any ambiguity as a question for ISNA, then verify the new award amount and closing date instead of reusing a directory’s older entry.
