Online Quran Classes for Kids in Saudi Arabia

Many expatriate families in Saudi Arabia, from Pakistan, India, the UK, North America and elsewhere, want their children to learn the Quran with a teacher who explains in a language they understand well. Local Quran circles (halaqat) are excellent, but they are usually in Arabic and in groups. One-to-one online lessons give your child individual correction, with explanations in English, Urdu or Hindi.

This page is for parents of children. For adults and general information, see our Saudi Arabia Quran classes page.

A typical week for a child in Saudi Arabia

The Saudi school week runs Sunday to Thursday, and many schools start early and finish by early afternoon. Our families usually book after Asr or between Maghrib and Isha in Arabia Standard Time.

Exact availability is confirmed when you book your free trial.

Fitting Quran around life in Saudi Arabia

• Sunday to Thursday rhythm: we schedule five lessons in your school week and keep Friday light, often with Surah Al-Kahf.
• International and Saudi schools: Quran hours at international schools are often limited; children in Saudi public schools may already study Quran, and our lessons can focus on Tajweed or Hifz.
• Indo-Pak or Madani Mushaf: many South Asian families use the 16 line Quran while local schools use the Madani Mushaf. Our teachers teach from both; read 16 line vs 15 line Quran.
• Summer travel: lessons continue online from anywhere, or pause while you travel.

For Indian and Pakistani families in Saudi Arabia

Halaqat at the local masjid are a blessing, but a six-year-old who thinks in Hindi or Urdu can find an Arabic-only circle hard to follow. A private teacher who explains in the child's own language often makes the difference between a child who dreads Qaida and one who looks forward to it.

• Hindi or Urdu explanation, or English, chosen by you, with the recitation itself always in Arabic.
• Noorani Qaida or Yassarnal Quran, so your child can learn from the same book you did. Compare them in Yassarnal Quran or Noorani Qaida.
• Hifz with a female Hafiza for daughters ready to memorise. See online Hifz for girls and women.
• Male and female teachers on every plan, at the same fee.

What parents in Saudi Arabia usually ask us for

Expatriate families tell us their children are surrounded by Arabic but still need someone to explain Tajweed in English, Urdu or Hindi, and to correct them one-to-one. Common goals are finishing the Qaida properly, reading from the family's own Mushaf with confidence, and Hifz that fits the Sunday-to-Thursday school week. Tell us your goal on the trial form and the teacher will plan around it.

Your child's learning path

1. Noorani Qaida (usually 3 to 6 months for young children): letters, joined letters, harakat and tanween. See all Noorani Qaida lessons.
2. Short surahs and duas alongside the Qaida: Al-Fatiha, Al-Ikhlas, the Quls and the Juz Amma memorisation order.
3. Reading the Quran (Nazra) with the first Tajweed rules.
4. Optional Hifz once reading is fluent, with a daily routine that fits school.

Safety, parents and teachers

• Lessons are one-to-one on your family device; parents can watch any lesson.
• Female teachers are available for girls and young children.
• Your child keeps the same teacher throughout.
• Ask us what checks apply to your child's teacher before you start.
