These terms govern your use of Dars e Ashrafi (darseashrafi.org), run by Qist Institute. By creating an account or using the site you agree to them. If you are under 18, your parent or guardian must agree on your behalf.

Our content

Lessons, texts, translations, recordings, illustrations and software on Dars e Ashrafi belong to Qist Institute or its licensors. Your subscription gives you a personal, non-transferable right to use them for your own learning. Classical texts in the public domain remain free; our translations, explanations and presentation of them are protected.

Educational nature of the content

Our courses teach classical and modern disciplines for study. They are not a substitute for a personal fatwa, legal, medical or financial advice. For a ruling on your own circumstances, consult a qualified scholar or professional.

Availability and changes

We work to keep the site available but cannot promise it will always be uninterrupted or error-free. We may add, change or retire courses and features. If we withdraw a course you have paid for separately, we will offer a comparable course or a pro-rata refund.

Suspension and closing accounts

You may close your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, after warning you where reasonable. Sections on content ownership, liability and governing law continue after an account is closed.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, Qist Institute is not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the site. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under Indian consumer protection law.

Governing law and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts at [city — to be confirmed] have jurisdiction. We may update these terms; the new version will be posted here, and continuing to use the site means you accept it.
