Comprehensive Qur’an & Islamic Sciences Program

Academic Year 2025–2026

Madrasa Al-Nashʾ Al-Ṣāliḥ  offers a combined Qur’an and Islamic Sciences program tailored for children ages 6 to 11, a critical period when their capacity for memorization and learning is at its peak.

Program Focus

Our primary emphasis is on Qur’anic instruction, guiding students from the foundational stages of learning to read Arabic to gradually memorizing the Qur’an. Students are grouped by proficiency to ensure personalized support and a pace suited to their individual progress.

Islamic Sciences Curriculum

The second portion of each Madrasa session focuses on core Islamic sciences, emphasizing both memorization and understanding. Students will study traditional texts in:

  • Ḥadīth

  • Fiqh

  • ʿAqīdah

This holistic approach nurtures not only memorization but also deep comprehension, fostering a strong foundation in sacred knowledge during these formative years.

Partnership with Parents

Success in this program relies on a strong partnership between Madrasa and home. While effective memorization techniques are employed during class, regular review and practice at home are essential. We recommend dedicating 5–6 hours per week outside of class for memorization and revision.

With this nurturing environment both at Madrasa and at home, every student can, in shāʾ Allāh, realize their full potential.
