"Is this just video lessons?"
No. Every Islamiyat lesson is followed by a Skill Check, then notes, then a worksheet, then a chapter test. The video is step one of six.

The real problem
You can memorise Islamiyat content. That is not the problem.
The problem is knowing how to explain significance, how much detail earns the marks, and how to structure evaluation answers the way the examiner expects. Five questions keep coming back, and content alone never closes them.

Notes organised around what the examiner actually asks — not just the content, but what to write and how much detail each question type needs. Built for exam use, not passive reading.

See two answers side by side — one that scores and one that doesn't — and understand exactly why. Complete model answers show the level of detail, references, and structure the examiner rewards.
I just plug in my earphones and listen to the audio lessons like an audiobook.Ayaan · IGCSE Islamiyat

Student feedback
Loved by students, trusted by parents.
Here's what Alt Academy Islamiyat students are saying.
“

The model answers literally show which points would get you marks and which ones wouldn't.
“
Is · IGCSE Islamiyat
I was always confused about how much to write. The answer guidance helped me a lot.
“
Is · IGCSE Islamiyat
The notes are long but I know if I go through them, that's what I need for the question.
Your Islamiyat course. Your pace. No guesswork.
I know the content but my answers never get full marks.
That's why there's a Skill Check after every video lesson. You test yourself right away so you know which topics you're actually getting wrong.
I keep avoiding the chapters I find hard.
The way the course is structured, even the difficult stuff is broken down and repeated enough times that it stops feeling difficult. Every chapter shows up in order — you can't accidentally skip one.
I don't know what to study next.
You don't have to figure that out. The next step is already there, waiting for you.
I get things wrong but don't understand why.
That's why we have Academic Support where you can ask questions, AI tutors for immediate answers, and live sessions if you need more help.
Can I actually finish before the exam?
Yes. The course is built that way. 90 study units, 90 minutes each. Follow the route and you'll reach past papers before your sitting.
The questions parents actually ask us.
Will my child finish the syllabus in time?
The course covers the full CAIE 0493 syllabus in 90 structured units. It's designed to finish before the exam sitting.
Is it just videos?
No. Every lesson is followed by Skill Checks, worksheets, chapter tests and past papers. Practice is built into every chapter.
What if my child gets stuck?
They can post questions in Academic Support and get detailed answers, usually within a few hours. There are also AI tutors for instant help.
How much does it cost?
You pay once with an Exam Pass that covers Islamiyat until your chosen sitting. No monthly billing, no hidden fees.
Can I see the course before paying?
Yes. The course player on this page is free to try. You can see the full chapter list and how lessons work.
Try the free trial →Is live teaching included?
No. Live classes are a separate add-on you can choose if you want them.
Before you decide
Five questions you should ask before choosing any Islamiyat course.
02
"Can my child study IGCSE Islamiyat alone with this?"
Yes. The course is built for self-study. The route tells the student what to do next: watch this, answer this, check this, move on.
03
"Does this cover the exact CAIE 0493 syllabus?"
Yes. Every chapter (Quran, Hadith, history of Islam, pillars, practices) is mapped to the 0493 syllabus, not a generic Islamiyat outline.
04
"Will this help with evaluation and significance questions?"
Yes. The course teaches how to move beyond recall. You learn to explain why an event, passage or practice matters, and how to structure that explanation so the examiner rewards it.
05
"What if my child needs to ask a question?"
Add live Islamiyat classes. Small batch sessions with Q&A time, handouts, and recorded replays. It is an optional add-on to any recorded plan.
I never found a YouTube channel where the whole syllabus was this organised and easy to follow.Hiba · IGCSE Islamiyat
Amal Arshad Chaudhry · Islamiyat
Amal teaches Islamiyat the way the paper tests it.
Her course is built around a recurring problem: a student can recall the events, remember the content, and still lose the mark because the answer lacks the explanation of significance or the structured evaluation the examiner expects.
The standard
Recalling the content is not where the marks are lost. The marks are lost when significance is left unexplained and evaluation is left unstructured.
01Quran & Hadith
Selected Surahs, themes, context, and the Hadith collections — applied to the IGCSE paper.
02History of Islam
The life of the Prophet (PBUH), the Rightly Guided Caliphs, and early Muslim community — with exam-style precision.
03Pillars & Practices
The Five Pillars, festivals, mosques, and the application of Islamic teachings — following the concepts tested at IGCSE.
01Can I study IGCSE Islamiyat on my own with this course?
Yes. The recorded course is designed for self-study. Watch the lesson, practise it, check your mistakes and move through the syllabus at your own pace.
02Is it just video lessons?
No. You also get Skill Checks, worksheets, notes, revision resources, past-paper practice and worked corrections.
03What's the difference between Monthly and Exam Pass?
Monthly is paid every month for as long as you need it. Exam Pass is one payment that gives you access until your chosen exam sitting.
04When should I choose All Access?
If you're taking more than one IGCSE subject on Alt, All Access usually makes more sense. One plan gives you access to every included IGCSE course.
05Is IGCSE Islamiyat separate from O Level Islamiyat?
Yes. This course is specifically for CAIE IGCSE Islamiyat 0493. O Level Islamiyat 2058 is a separate course with its own syllabus and route.
06Does this course help with evaluation questions?
Yes. The course teaches how to explain significance, not just recall facts. You practise structuring answers that earn full marks for evaluation and analysis.
07Can I add live Islamiyat classes?
Yes. Live Islamiyat is an optional add-on to any recorded plan.
Choose your recorded plan first — Islamiyat only or All Access — then add:
