About this website
Dar al-Turath al-Islami (DTI) provides information about its institutions, programmes and services through this public website. Institution websites accept programme registrations and prepare general enquiries for you to send through email or WhatsApp.
Applications and private tracking
Choose an institution from registration and complete its form. DTI records the supplied student, contact, guardian and payer details, study choices and supporting documents in its central DTIMS system for authorised staff to process the registration. A parent or lawful guardian should act for a child.
After submitting, save the reference and private tracking link shown on that institution’s website. The link gives access to registration status and, where enabled, document uploads. A private tracking credential is kept in the browser tab’s session storage so you can return to the status page; personal form answers are not saved as browser drafts. Keep the link private. A received application does not confirm a place or payment.
Contact, book and donation enquiries
Enquiry tools prepare a message in your browser. The message reaches DTI only when you send it through WhatsApp or your email service. You may choose to include your name, contact details, institution of interest and the information needed to answer your question.
Please avoid sending identity documents, bank-login details or other sensitive information in a general enquiry. WhatsApp, your email provider and your device handle messages under their own terms.
Registration payments
PayFast processes the registration payment. DTI records the institution, programme, campus, registration type, amount and verified payment reference in DTIMS. This website does not collect card details. Payment does not itself confirm academic acceptance.
Contact DTI about current donation arrangements.
A saved book list is an enquiry, not an order, reservation or payment. Course bookings and any related payment details are handled against the selected course in DTIMS. PayFast processes any enabled course payment; this website does not collect card details.
How DTI uses information it receives
DTI uses enquiries to respond, help visitors find the appropriate programme or service, and maintain relevant administrative records. Information is shared with the DTI personnel and service providers needed to handle the request. DTI does not sell personal information.
Information received by DTI is kept only for as long as needed for the request, administration and applicable record-keeping duties. Contact DTI if you need details about records held about you.
Website storage and technical information
Book-cart choices may be stored in your browser so that they remain available on the same device. A cart alone does not create an order. The website’s hosting service may process technical information, including your IP address, browser details and request logs, to deliver and secure the site.
This release does not add DTI analytics or advertising cookies. When you continue to Fatwa & Research, PayFast or another website, that service’s notices apply.
Your choices and requests
You may contact DTI about access to, correction or deletion of your personal information, or raise a concern about its use. Available rights and any limits depend on applicable law. DTI may need to verify your identity before acting.
