Curriculum

20 levels. One Clear Path

Stage 1

FoundationLevels 1 to 5

Arabic letter recognition, letter sounds, vowel marks, and the formation of short words. Sessions are short, text is large, and all interactions are tap-based. The base every higher level depends on.

In the name of بِسْمِ Lord رَبِّ Allah اللَّهِ All praise الْحَمْدُ

Stage 2

UnderstandingLevels 6 to 10

Over 2,000 frequently occurring Quranic words, each taught with meaning, pronunciation, and repeated practice. Level 10 introduces animated visuals that bring meaning to life, helping learners connect each word with what it represents. By the end of this stage, learners begin to recognise familiar words during recitation.

Stage 3

PracticeLevels 11 to 15

Vocabulary moves into context inside real Quranic verses. Learners begin to identify familiar words during recitation. Grammar patterns are introduced gradually without formal grammar instruction.

Indeed إِنَّ Those who الَّذِينَ In فِي From مِنْ

Stage 4

CompletionLevels 16 to 20

Levels 16 to 19 are new additions that extend the learning journey with word joining and richer practice. Learners build stronger word recognition, read verses with confidence, and earn a certificate at Level 20.
