The essential first step for any student, young or old, learning to read the Quran for the very first time — including new reverts to Islam.
The Online Noorani Qaida Course is where every Quran-reading journey begins. It teaches the Arabic alphabet, correct pronunciation of each letter (Makharij), and how letters join together to form words — the essential building blocks needed before reading directly from the Quran.
This course is especially popular with young children just starting out, adult beginners with no prior Arabic background, and new reverts to Islam who want a patient, judgment-free introduction taught one-on-one at their own pace.
Arabic alphabet recognition and correct pronunciation (Makharij)
Joining letters together to form words
Harakat (vowel signs) and basic Tajweed marks
Reading short Surahs with correct pronunciation
Building fluency and confidence before progressing to full Quran reading
Our teachers are experienced in guiding complete beginners, including young children and adult reverts, with patience and encouragement.
No group classes to keep up with — your teacher moves at exactly the speed that suits you or your child.
From 5-year-olds to grandparents, our Qaida course is structured to work for any age or background.
Every later course — Quran Reading, Tajweed, Hifz — builds directly on what's taught here.
It's designed for absolute beginners of any age — children starting their Quran education, adults with no prior Arabic reading experience, and new reverts to Islam.
Most students complete Noorani Qaida in 2–6 months, depending on age, prior exposure to Arabic, and how often you practice between classes.
No — that's exactly what this course teaches, starting from the very first letter of the alphabet.
Most students move on to our Quran Reading course, where they begin reading directly from the Quran using the foundation built here.
