Frequently Asked
Questions
General & About Us
What is Siraat Mustaqeem ?
Siraat Mustaqeem is an online academy teaching the Holy Quran, Tajweed, Arabic language and Islamic Studies to Muslims of all ages, worldwide. Every class is live and one-on-one, taught by tutors certified through the Al-Azhar University methodology — the oldest Islamic educational institution in the world. Learn more on our About Us page.
Is Siraat Mustaqeem a registered institute ?
Yes. We operate as Siraat Mustaqeem LLC, a registered company based at 30 N Gould St, STE R, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States (EIN 38-4394419), currently serving students in more than 20 countries.
How is Siraat Mustaqeem different from a Quran app ?
Apps and pre-recorded videos can’t correct a student’s pronunciation as they read. We pair every student with a real, certified human tutor for live one-on-one sessions, so mistakes in recitation and Tajweed are corrected in real time — the way this knowledge has always been taught, person to person.
Who can join Siraat Mustaqeem ?
Students of any age and background: young children starting with the Arabic alphabet, adults memorizing the Quran around a full-time job, and new Muslims looking for a patient guide through the basics of the faith. Browse our full course catalog to see every learning path.

Yes — the first session is completely free, with no credit card required. Book it on our booking page or message us directly on WhatsApp.
Do you accept Zelle or US bank transfers?
Yes. As a US-registered LLC, we accept payment via Zelle and direct US bank transfer — ideal for families based in the United States. Reach us at +1 774-397-4773 (call, text, or WhatsApp) to arrange payment.
Kids & Parents
What is the right age for a child to start Quran classes?
Most children start between ages 4 and 7 with our Noorani Qaida course, which teaches Arabic letters and sounds from scratch. There’s no strict minimum age — tutors adapt the pace and teaching style to each child’s attention span.
What does the Noorani Qaida course teach kids?
The Noorani Qaida course is the essential starting point for children with no prior Arabic knowledge: letter recognition, correct pronunciation and basic reading rules — the foundation a child needs before reading and reciting the Quran itself.
Are the online classes safe for children?
Yes. All sessions run through a monitored classroom and are recorded for quality and safety, and parents can request a progress update at any time. Female tutors are available for daughters who prefer a female teacher, and parents are always welcome to sit in on a lesson.
Can I request a female tutor for my daughter?
Yes. We have dedicated, certified female tutors for sisters and children who prefer a female teacher. Just mention this preference when you book your free trial or reach out on WhatsApp.
How long are Quran classes for kids?
Kids’ classes are typically 30 or 45 minutes, matching a young child’s attention span, with 60-minute sessions available for older children ready for longer lessons. Length can be adjusted any time as your child progresses.
Does my child need to know Arabic before starting?
No prior Arabic is required. Both Noorani Qaida and Islamic Studies for Kids are built for complete beginners and grow reading and comprehension skills gradually from lesson one.
How can parents track their child's progress?
You’ll receive regular progress reports covering recitation, memorization and understanding. Standard and Intensive plans include more detailed, more frequent reports, and you can always request an update from the tutor directly on WhatsApp.
Is there a discount for multiple children in one family?
Yes — a family discount is available for two or more students from the same household. Contact us or message us on WhatsApp with the number of children and courses for a custom quote.
Adults & New Muslims
Can adults start learning Quran with no prior experience?
Yes. Adult beginners can start with Noorani Qaida to learn the Arabic alphabet, or go straight into the Quran with Tajweed course if they can already read Arabic. Every tutor tailors the pace to your starting point.
Can working adults fit classes around a busy schedule?
Yes. Tutors are available 24/7 across all time zones, so you can schedule morning, evening or weekend sessions around a job or family life, without being tied to a fixed class time.
Is there a Quran memorization (Hifz) program for adults?
Yes — the Quran Memorization course offers a structured, one-on-one Hifz path with regular revision (muraja’ah) so what you’ve memorized stays with you, not just new material added on top. It fits well alongside work or family commitments.
Do you have a course specifically for new Muslims?
Yes — the New Muslim Converts course is a gentle, judgment-free program that walks new Muslims through the basics step by step: how to pray, foundational beliefs, and reading the Quran, at a pace built for beginners. See also our complete beginner’s guide on the blog.
Can adults work toward a Quran Ijazah?
Yes. The Quran Ijazah course is for advanced students who’ve completed memorization or recitation training and want a formal, chain-of-transmission certification in Quranic recitation under a senior certified tutor.
Can adults take Islamic Studies without a Quran course?
Absolutely. Islamic Studies for Adults can be taken on its own for a deeper, structured look at Islamic beliefs, practices and history, or combined with a Quran or Arabic course for a fuller learning plan.
Courses & Curriculum
What courses does Siraat Mustaqeem offer?
Three tracks: Quran (Tajweed, Recitation, Memorization/Hifz, Ijazah), Arabic (Noorani Qaida, Conversation, Quranic Arabic, Fusha), and Islamic Studies (Kids, Adults, New Muslims). See the full course catalog.
What's the difference between the Tajweed course and the Recitation course?
The Tajweed course digs deep into the technical rules of correct pronunciation. The Recitation course focuses on applying those rules in practice to build fluency, rhythm and confidence reading aloud. Many students take Tajweed first, then Recitation — or combine both with one tutor.
What is Quranic Arabic, and how is it different from Fusha Arabic?
Quranic Arabic focuses on the vocabulary and grammar used in the Quran itself, so you can grasp meaning directly instead of relying only on translation. Fusha (Classical/Modern Standard) Arabic is broader — general grammar, reading, writing and comprehension for everyday and academic use.
Can I combine two courses, like Quran and Arabic Conversation?
Yes. Many students combine Quran with Tajweed alongside Arabic Conversation, either with the same tutor across two slots or two specialist tutors. Mention your goals when you book your trial so a plan can be arranged.
Is the curriculum the same for everyone, or is it personalized?
It’s personalized. Because every session is one-on-one, the tutor adjusts pace, review frequency and material to your age, current level and goals rather than following a fixed group syllabus.
Where can I read more about Quran learning methods and Tajweed?
Our blog covers in-depth guides, including how to memorize Quran fast, how to retain your memorization, and the complete guide to Tajweed for kids and adults.
