Mission and Core Values
Al-Akhirah – Guided by the Hereafter
Every decision at Riphah is made with the ultimate goal of success in the Hereafter. We prioritize long-term spiritual reward over short-term worldly gain, ensuring that our policies, actions, and achievements align with the principles of tawhid (oneness of Allah) and ‘adl (justice and fairness).
Mshawra – Consultation and Resolution
Inspired by the Qur’anic principle of mshawra, we encourage open dialogue, participatory decision-making, and respectful disagreement (adab al-ikhtilaf). Every voice matters, and resolution is honored as a shared responsibility.
Rahmah – Compassion in Action
Our campus culture is rooted in rahmah—mercy, compassion, and care. We ensure that policies, teaching methods, and administrative practices remain people-focused, making education accessible, supportive, and empathetic.
Itqan – Striving for Excellence
We are committed to itqan and ihsan—pursuing excellence in everything we do. From teaching and research to administration and student services, we reject mediocrity and set the highest professional and ethical standards in all endeavors.
Ijtima‘iyah – Building a United Community
Riphah functions as a close-knit family, fostering unity, togetherness, and collective responsibility. We believe that personal identity and success are enriched through the strength of community and collaboration.
Muhasabah – Accountability with Integrity
We believe in muhasabah—self-assessment and accountability at all levels. Whether student, faculty, or leadership, everyone is responsible for their actions, ensuring transparency, fairness, and ethical conduct across the institution.
The History of Riphah
Riphah International University was founded in 2002 by the Islamic International Medical College Trust (IIMCT), a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing education grounded in Islamic ethical values.

Recognizing Faisalabad’s role as a major industrial and educational hub, Riphah expanded its presence by launching the Faisalabad Campus to provide greater access to academic excellence in the region. Since its inception, the university has evolved into a distinguished center of learning, renowned for its academic rigor, research innovation, and value-based education.
