Children’s Maktab Classes

Our children’s program helps students learn Qur’an recitation, memorization, basic Islamic beliefs, duas, salah, and everyday Islamic manners in a structured and nurturing environment.




Adult Maktab Classes (18+)

Our adult classes are designed for brothers who want to learn or strengthen the fundamentals of Islam, including Qur’an recitation, purification, salah, essential beliefs, and practical daily Islamic knowledge.

These classes are ideal for adults who may not have had the opportunity to study formally or who want to rebuild their foundation in a comfortable learning environment.
