About the program
Embrace the Journey of Quran Memorization
At SALAM IQRA' School, we understand the profound importance of the Quran in our lives. That's why we've carefully crafted our after-school Quran Memorization program for children ages 5 to 15 — so that memorizing the Quran is not just an educational pursuit, but a fulfilling spiritual journey.
Classes run year-round, twice a week, with a break during Ramadan. Whether your child is opening a mus-haf for the very first time or already reading fluently, our teachers meet them exactly where they are and move at a pace that keeps them confident and motivated.
With five teachers across two levels, every student receives the personalized attention, encouragement, and accountability that memorization requires.

Frequently Asked Questions
What ages is the Quran Memorization program for?
The program is for children ages 5 to 15. We welcome both children who are just beginning and those who already read the Quran fluently — we place each student in the level that fits them.
What levels are available?
There are two levels. Beginner is for students who do not yet read the Quran on their own; they start with Qaidah Noorania and memorize the short surahs. Advanced is for students who already read independently and are ready for guided memorization and structured revision.
My child has never studied Arabic. Can they still join?
Yes. The Beginner level assumes no prior Arabic at all — it starts with Qaidah Noorania, teaching the letters, their sounds, and how to put them together before moving into memorization.
When does the program run, and when can we start?
Classes run year-round on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:00 to 7:00 pm, with a break during Ramadan. Because enrollment is ongoing, you can start at any point in the year.
