About the course

What Hifz Course covers

A proud boy hugging the Quran while his Hifz teacher smiles on a laptop

The Quran Memorization (Hifz) Course is a structured program for committing the Quran to memory, whether in part or in full, under the daily supervision of a qualified hafiz or hafizah. Each student receives a personal memorization plan based on their available time, reading level, and goal. Classes follow the time-tested three-part cycle: sabaq (the new lesson), sabqi (recent lessons), and manzil (long-term revision).

New memorization is only half the work; keeping it is the other half. That is why every class dedicates protected time to revision, and why your teacher tracks retention scores for every juz you hold. If a portion weakens, the plan automatically routes it back into the sabqi cycle before it fades. This layered approach is how traditional hifz schools produce huffaz whose memorization lasts a lifetime.

Students may pursue full hifz over several years, or set a defined target such as Juz Amma, Surah Al-Kahf, or the last three juz. Parents of young memorizers receive weekly reports covering new pages, revision quality, and tajweed accuracy, so the whole family can support the journey at home.

Hifz classes here are 45 minutes long, not 30, and they cost the same as every other course. The extra time is what lets each class cover the new lesson and both layers of revision properly, instead of rushing one of them. Students can learn with a male Hafiz or a female Hafiza, and a female supervisor checks every class for teaching quality.

Online Hifz works because it is one-to-one and frequent. In a busy madrasa circle a child may recite to the teacher for a few minutes; here the whole class is theirs, the teacher hears every line, and the same teacher follows the same student day after day. Classes run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so a fixed daily slot fits around school or work in any time zone.

Curriculum

What your child studies, level by level

  1. Level 1

    Building the Routine

    Students establish the daily memorization habit and master the mechanics of the hifz cycle.

    • Personal goal-setting and a written memorization plan
    • How to memorise a new passage: listening, repetition, and linking
    • The sabaq, sabqi, and manzil cycle explained and practised
    • Memorising Juz Amma or the student's chosen starting portion
    • Fixing tajweed errors before they are memorised
  2. Level 2

    Sustained Memorization

    Students expand their memorised portion steadily while revision keeps earlier material strong.

    • Increasing daily sabaq size safely
    • Weekly retention checks and scoring for each memorised juz
    • Connecting similar verses (mutashabihat) without confusion
    • Reciting memorised portions in the daily prayers
    • Recovering weak pages through targeted sabqi rotation
    • Milestone assessments at every completed juz
  3. Level 3

    Completion and Consolidation

    Students finish their target, then harden the entire memorization through full-cycle revision.

    • Final-stage pacing toward the completion of the target portion
    • Full manzil rotation: reciting the whole memorised text on a fixed cycle
    • Unprepared recitation tests from random starting points
    • Preparing for a formal completion recitation (khatm al-hifz)
    • A lifelong revision schedule to maintain hifz after graduation

Outcomes

By the end of the course, students can…

  • Memorise the agreed target portion, from Juz Amma to the complete Quran
  • Recite any memorised passage from a random starting point without the mushaf
  • Maintain teacher-verified retention scores across all memorised juz
  • Apply correct tajweed throughout memorised recitation
  • Run an independent sabaq, sabqi, and manzil routine without supervision
  • Complete a formal assessed recitation of the memorised portion

Inside a Hifz class

A 45-minute Hifz class, step by step

Hifz classes are 45 minutes instead of 30, on the same monthly plans, so every class has time for the new lesson and for both kinds of revision. A female supervisor checks every class.

  1. 0–5minWarm-up recitationThe student recites yesterday's new lines from memory so the teacher can hear they held overnight.
  2. 5–20minSabaq — the new lessonNew lines are read from the mushaf, corrected for Tajweed, repeated and then recited from memory until they are steady.
  3. 20–32minSabqi — recent revisionThe last few days' pages are recited, so new memorisation settles before the student moves further on.
  4. 32–42minManzil — older revisionA portion memorised weeks or months ago comes round on a rotating schedule, so nothing quietly fades.
  5. 42–45minHome taskThe teacher sets exactly what to read and revise before the next class, and notes how today went.

Plans by age

What a Hifz week looks like at each age

These are starting points. The teacher sets the real amounts after hearing the student, and slows the new lesson down whenever revision needs more time.

StudentUsually starts withNew lesson a dayClasses a weekHome revision
Ages 5–7Al-Fatihah and the shortest surahs of Juz Amma2–3 lines3–5 classes5–10 minutes, read aloud to a parent
Ages 8–11Juz Amma, then Juz TabarakHalf a page4–5 classes15–20 minutes, split morning and evening
Ages 12–16Juz Amma or straight to full HifzHalf to one page5 classes20–30 minutes, plus recitation in Salah
AdultsA chosen portion — Juz Amma, Al-Kahf, Yaseen — or full HifzSet around work3–5 classes15–30 minutes at a fixed time

Where to start

Is your child ready for Hifz?

Memorising with mistakes is the hardest thing to undo, so the starting point depends on how well the student reads today.

  • If the student…

    Cannot read Arabic yet

    Noorani Qaida first, with a few short surahs learned by listening alongside.

    Noorani Qaida →
  • If the student…

    Reads slowly or with mistakes

    Quran Reading with Tajweed, while memorising short surahs from Juz Amma.

    Quran Reading →
  • If the student…

    Reads fluently

    Start Hifz with Juz Amma, then move on to the full Quran if the routine holds.

    Juz Amma for kids →
  • If the student…

    Memorised before but forgetting

    A revision-only plan first to bring back what was memorised, then new lessons.

    Hifz with Murajaah →

Not sure? The teacher hears your child read in the first free class and tells you where to begin.

At home

What parents do between classes

  • Keep the class at the same time every day — Hifz runs on routine.
  • Listen to the home revision for five minutes. You do not need to read Arabic; the teacher does the correcting.
  • Encourage your child to recite new surahs in Salah, where they are revised without extra effort.
  • Celebrate each finished surah and each finished Juz.
  • Tell the teacher early if your child is stressed — slowing the new lesson for a while is better than stopping.

FAQ

Hifz Course: common questions

How long does it take to memorise the whole Quran online?

Most dedicated students complete full hifz in three to five years with five classes per week and daily home revision. Part-time students take longer, and that is perfectly fine. Your teacher builds the timeline around your pace rather than forcing a fixed schedule.

What are sabaq, sabqi, and manzil?

They are the three layers of the daily hifz cycle. Sabaq is the new lesson memorised today, sabqi is the recent lessons from the past few days, and manzil is older material revised on a rotating schedule. Together they ensure new memorization grows while old memorization never fades.

Can I memorise only certain surahs instead of the full Quran?

Yes, partial hifz is fully supported. Many students target Juz Amma, Surah Al-Kahf, Surah Yaseen, or the last three juz. Your plan, revision cycle, and completion assessment are simply scaled to the portion you choose, using the same method as full hifz.

Does my child need to read fluently before starting hifz?

Fluent reading with sound tajweed basics is strongly recommended, because errors memorised early are hard to remove later. If your child is not yet fluent, we begin with the Quran Reading with Tajweed course and transition into hifz as soon as their reading is ready.

How long is a Hifz class, and does it cost more?

Hifz classes are 45 minutes, so there is time for the new lesson, recent revision and older revision in every class. They are on the same monthly plans as every other course, from $30 a month (£24, €28), with no extra charge for the longer class.

How many Hifz classes a week does my child need?

Most Hifz students take four or five classes a week. With fewer, the gaps between classes are long enough for revision to slip. Young children starting with short surahs can begin with three a week.

Can my daughter memorise with a female teacher?

Yes. Our female teachers are Hafizas and teach Hifz, and the fee is the same for a male or female teacher. A female supervisor checks every class.

What happens to Hifz in Ramadan, exams or holidays?

Class times can be moved for Ramadan, and during exams the teacher can switch to revision only so nothing is lost. If you travel, classes can be paused and unused balance carries over to the next month. Stopping completely is what costs the most memorisation.

My child memorised before but has forgotten a lot. Can you help?

Yes. The teacher hears what your child still remembers and can run a revision-only plan first to bring it back, before adding any new lessons.
