Al-ijazah or the license in Arabic calligraphy is considered as one of the literature of classical learning. Its concept is to reach a cognitive and scientific stage that qualifies the calligrapher to hold the title of a teacher in addition to the title of artist. To achieve this, the calligrapher has to get a certificate from his teacher allowing him to teach this art in a systematic and methodical way that guarantees the quality of what he presents to his students according to the literature of learning the art of Arabic calligraphy.

Siraj Allaf obtained his license in Arabic calligraphy from his teacher and began to practice teaching and training Arabic calligraphy on a continuous basis through many courses and regular lessons, and this led to the apprenticeship of a large number of male and female students around the world. Siraj chose a method that combines the use of traditional tools in teaching Arabic calligraphy in addition to modern technical options such as distance learning techniques, and became one of the most providers of this type of courses around the world.  Allaf’s courses were also distinguished by a new methodology based on providing a flexible interactive environment that ensures a high level of benefit from the courses.
