Individual Recitation: This is an on phone program where the student calls the teacher four days a week (Monday through Thursday) at a specific time in order to recite to the teacher — either for memorization, or to recite the entire Qurʼān to obtain a Tajweed ijāzah (please note that recitation is only one aspect out of several for obtaining an ijāzah). The time slots are ten minutes each either early morning or in evening and students are required to call promptly at their respective times. Additional information is provided upon registration.
Hafs Group Recitation: This is an on-phone program for those who can recite but want to take their recitation to a higher level and be trained in teaching the recitation of the Noble Book. Currently this program is open. Group reading takes place for 1.5 hrs every Saturday afternoon. Students will also memorize the matn Jazariyyah and are required to memorize a portion of the Qur’aan once they have completed their reading. Additional information is provided upon registration. You may also contact the teacher directly through email to obtain more information.
It is up to the student to directly contact the teacher to recite to them.
Students must be able to recite the Qurʼān fluently to enroll in the taḥfīẓ al-Qurʼān program. An interview will be taken and students are placed on one month probation before starting memorization.
All students are required to pay complete monthly fees regardless of the number of days called. The fee for reading is based on a pro-rated annual amount (meaning the annual fee is CDN $1,200 plus tax, and this is paid in monthly installments of CDN $100 + tax for Canadian students). Therefore, whether there are holidays, sessions are cancelled by the teacher, or if a student misses class for some personal reason, the complete monthly amount would need to be paid regardless of the number of sessions each month.
Students are required to attend their reading sessions regularly. Please remember that the teacher is holding their time to be available to listen to your recitation. Please be regular and punctual. Failure to comply with these rules will result in your reading spot being dropped.
US and Canadian statutory holidays will be off days inshāʼAllāh.
