- Your journey to ijāzah
Four stages. You’ll always know exactly which one you’re in.
Six one-to-one courses, from your first Arabic letter to a certified ijazah. Every one taught live,
in English, by a teacher who holds an ijazah.
1
Stage 1
Foundation
Where you start: Not knowing a single letter is a completely normal place to begin.
- Recognise all 28 Arabic letters and say each one the way it’s meant to sound
- Read short verses on your own, without someone sounding them out first
- Tell the difference between letters that look almost identical — and stop mixing them up
2
Stage 2
Tajwīd
Where you start: You can read, but you’re not sure it’s right.
- Know when an n or m sound changes, hides, or holds — and do it without stopping to think
- Know when to stretch a sound, and by exactly how long
- Hear your own mistakes, which is the skill this stage is really for

Stage 3
Memorization & Reflection
Where you start: Reading is solid. Now it goes in.
- Follow a memorisation plan built around your real week — school, work, and all
- Explain what a passage means before you’re asked to memorise it
- Recite what you learned nine months ago without relearning it
4
Stage 4
Mastery & Ijāzah
Where you start: Accurate, fluent, and ready to be formally examined.
- Recite long stretches with no correction needed
- Sit a full assessment with a certified examiner
- Hold an ijazah with your name in a documented line of teachers
- Every week
Thirty minutes, and none of them wasted
You read, your teacher stops you, you read again. That loop is the entire method — here is where each part of it lands.
01
Minutes 1–5
You read what you did last time. Your teacher listens for whether it held.
02
Minutes 5–20
The new material. You read, they stop you, you read again. This loop is the entire method.
03
Minutes 20–27
The meaning. What the verse is saying, and why it says it that way.
You move when you’re ready, not when the calendar says so
There are no terms and no cohorts. If Tajweed clicks in six weeks, you move in six weeks. If Foundation takes twice as long as the average, it takes twice as long — and your teacher will tell you that plainly rather than moving you on to keep things looking tidy.
