Who are we?

We are Ali Bin Abi Taleb College, one member out of many schools in the bigger family of the Makassed Philanthropic Islamic Association in Beirut. We have been providing K-12 education to the Beiruti community since 1951. Our preschool and elementary campuses are located in Ras Eh Nabeh region, whereas our middle and secondary departments are situated in Achrafieh.

The Makassed Philanthropic Islamic Association in Beirut is a charitable humanitarian association that primarily aims at nurturing a modern Lebanese citizen immersed in knowledge, faith, and tolerance in accordance with the eternal principles of Islam. Founded back in 1878, Makassed has since then been offering distinguished education to more than 14.000 students in Beirut, the North, and Bekaa. Besides its educational mission, Makassed provides medical care and social services to the least privileged citizens all over Lebanon.
