Qur’an Memorization (Hifz)

The Hifz Program at Sufuuf al-Khayr helps children carry the Qur’an with clarity, consistency, and joy. Through gentle teacher modeling (talqeen), small daily practice, and proven review cycles, learners memorize steadily and retain what they memorize. Tajweed is reinforced throughout so accuracy grows with confidence—never rushed, never overwhelming.

How is the Hifz Program Structured?

We combine one recorded lesson each week (modeling chunking, pacing, and review techniques) with one focused 1-on-1 live session (30 minutes) for correction, planning, and accountability. Parents receive simple checklists and audio loops so supporting 10–15 minutes/day at home is easy.

  • Method: Sabaq (new lesson) • Sabaqi (recent review) • Manzil (older review)

  • Format: 12-week courses; several terms per level to ensure durable retention

  • Accuracy First: Hifz is primarily 1-on-1 to protect precision and confidence

  • Materials: Uthmani-script mushaf, memorization trackers, printable review sheets, teacher audio

  • Placement: A short assessment sets the right starting point and weekly targets

  • Recommended cadence: 2×/week live sessions for Hifz (with short daily practice)

What makes this program unique?

  • Retention-first design: The sabaq/sabaqi/manzil system is baked into every week so memory sticks.

  • Tajweed within Hifz: Rules are applied during memorization for accuracy that lasts.

  • Meaning-aware chunking: Natural pause points and themes aid recall and protect understanding.

  • Parent-friendly routines: Clear trackers, tiny daily loops, and “what to listen for” notes.

  • Calm, sustainable pacing: Ambitious goals with a gentle tone that keeps motivation and love for the Qur’an at the center.

How the Programs Work

Sufuuf Al-Khayr combines a rigorous, academically designed curriculum of recorded materials (video lessons, texts, and quizzes) with live, private 1-on-1 sessions—bringing together the best of structured content and personalized instruction.

Structured Pathway

Each course runs 12 weeks and blends:

  • One recorded lesson (new concepts, modeling)

  • One weekly 1-on-1 live session (30 min) for application, correction, and fluency

Clear Weekly Rhythm (Typical)

  • Mon: Recorded lesson (≈20–30 min)

  • Wed: Light practice (worksheets / drills, 10–15 min)

  • Fri: Live 1-on-1 (30 min) on Zoom

Materials & Parent Portal

All required PDF textbooks, slides, audio loops, and worksheets are provided. Recordings and printables are available via a parent portal (website download area) for easy review.

Individual Instruction

Every learner receives a private 30-minute 1-on-1 class weekly. For Arabic, small-group options (2–3 students) can be arranged when beneficial; Qur’an/Tajwid/Hifz remain primarily 1-on-1 for accuracy.

Progress & Feedback

You’ll receive concise weekly notes, targeted tips (“what to listen for”), and an end-of-course report with strengths, focus areas, and next-step recommendations.

Recognition

Upon successfully completing each level, you’ll receive an official Certificate of Completion—digital by default, with a printed copy available upon request to support your academic or professional portfolio.
