One of the beautiful and prominent features of the hawzah is the tradition of attending lessons on ethics (dars akhlaq). These lessons are integral to the curriculum of every seminary student and are also open to the public. Led by knowledgeable and experienced scholars, dars akhlaq sessions delve into the teachings of Islam regarding moral conduct, character refinement, spiritual wayfaring and purification of the soul with emphasis on practical applications of ethical principles in daily life. These sessions cultivate a deeper understanding of Islamic ethics and encourage individuals to embody virtues such as honesty, kindness, humility, and compassion and to struggle on the path of attaining proximity to Allah (swt) through self-purification. Some of the commonly attended classes by renowned teachers are listed below:
| Teacher | Location | Day | Time |
