Quran Memorisation (Hifz) Course
Memorising the Quran takes daily consistency, not just effort in the lesson itself. Our Hifz course builds that consistency through the classical sabaq, sabqi, and manzil system, guided one to one by a qualified hafiz who tracks your progress every step of the way.

How the Hifz Course Actually Works
This is the same sabaq, sabqi, and manzil structure used by traditional hifz programmes, adapted to one to one online lessons.
Sabaq, New Memorisation
The new portion you commit to memory each session, kept short enough to actually stick rather than rushed through to hit a target.
Sabqi, Recent Revision
Repeating roughly the last week of sabaq daily, so newly memorised verses are still fresh when the next portion is added on top.
Manzil, Long Term Revision
An older portion revised on rotation, so material memorised months ago stays as solid as what was learned yesterday.
Building Toward Completion
These three layers repeat every session, gradually building toward the full Quran without older memorisation quietly fading away.
Memorising the full Quran typically takes two to four years, depending on age, prior Arabic reading ability, and how many sessions a week you commit to. Children often finish faster than adults with busier schedules, and either pace is completely valid.
Three Ways to Approach Hifz
Memorising the Quran isn't all or nothing. Your teacher builds a plan around what you actually want to achieve.
Juzz Amma Only
The 30th and final section of the Quran, the most commonly memorised starting point for children and adults alike.
Selected Surahs
A focused set of surahs you actually want memorised, such as those used most often in daily prayer.
The Full Quran
The complete Hifz journey, memorising all 30 juz through consistent daily sabaq and lifelong revision.
Who This Course Is For
Students who read Arabic reasonably fluently already and are ready to commit to daily or near daily short sessions, whether children or adults.
How It's Taught
Live, one to one video sessions where you recite your sabaq and revision directly to your teacher, who corrects mistakes and confirms what's genuinely retained.
Who Teaches It
A qualified hafiz who has memorised the Quran themselves and understands exactly where students typically struggle and lose material.

How long does it take to memorise the full Quran?
Most students take two to four years, depending on age, existing Arabic reading ability, and how many sessions a week they commit to. There's no single right pace.
What is sabaq, sabqi, and manzil?
Sabaq is new memorisation, sabqi is recent revision from the last week or so, and manzil is long term revision of older portions. All three run together every session to stop material fading.
Do I need to read Arabic fluently before starting Hifz?
Yes, reasonably fluent reading is needed first, since memorisation relies on reading accurately without sounding out every letter. Our Tajweed or Noorani Qaida courses can build that first.
What happens if I forget something I've already memorised?
That's exactly what the manzil revision cycle exists for. Forgetting is normal and expected, and consistent revision is what keeps older portions solid long term.
Is Hifz suitable for adults, or only children?
Adults absolutely can memorise the Quran. It often takes a little longer around work and family commitments, but plenty of our Hifz students are adults.
