Can your child recognise letters?
The teacher checks letters in a mixed order, not only from a memorised alphabet song.
Arabic Alphabets for Kids
Every Quran Journey Begins With One Letter
A calm, one-to-one online course that helps children recognise Arabic letters, understand their changing shapes and begin reading Quran words with care.
PrivateOne teacher, one learner
Beginner-safeNo Arabic needed
Parent-visibleClear next steps
Before lesson one
Find the real reading gap first
Children do not always need to restart from Alif. The first classes help the teacher see exactly where reading becomes difficult.
Recognition
Do joined shapes cause confusion?
The same letter may look different at the beginning, middle or end of a word.
Are vowel sounds clear?
Short vowel marks are checked before longer words and reading rules are introduced.
Can the child decode without guessing?
The teacher listens for careful letter-by-letter reading and notices repeated errors.
وَرَتِّلِ الْقُرْآنَ تَرْتِيلًا
A Quranic principle
“Recite the Quran properly in a measured way.”
Clear reading is built with care, not speed. That principle shapes the course: sound first, then connection, then flow.

Four chapters, taught at your child's pace
The 90-day structure gives families a clear direction. It is not a fixed promise. A teacher can stay with a chapter longer when the foundation needs more practice.

What progress may look like across 90 days
This is a flexible guide. The teacher should move forward only when the earlier skill is stable.
Weeks 1-2
Settle into the routine
Meet the teacher, check the starting level and practise a small group of letters with clear sound modelling.
Weeks 3-4
Separate similar letters
Use dots, shapes and sound differences to stop common mix-ups before they become habits.
Weeks 5-8
Read joined forms
Follow letters as their shapes change, then blend two- and three-letter combinations.
Weeks 9-12
Move towards Quran lines
Read short words and phrases with vowel marks, stopping practice and gentle pronunciation correction.

Parent questions
Clear answers before you enrol
These answers set realistic expectations for the Arabic alphabet course.
Does my child need to know Arabic before joining?
No. Complete beginners can begin with shapes and sounds. Children with some experience can start from the point found during the trial assessment.
Will every child finish the pathway in 90 days?
No fixed result can be promised. Ninety days gives the course a clear structure, but progress depends on age, starting level, attendance, practice and individual learning pace.
When does Tajweed begin?
Careful pronunciation begins with the first letters. Formal Tajweed rules are introduced gradually when the child can recognise, join and read letters well enough to apply them.
Can parents request a male or female teacher?
Parents may request a male or female teacher. Matching depends on the course level, preferred lesson time and current availability.
What should we practise between classes?
Practise the exact letters, forms or short words set by the teacher. Keep practice brief, calm and regular rather than turning it into another long lesson.
What happens after the first 90 days?
The teacher reviews the child's reading and recommends the next step. This may be further Qaida work, Quran reading, Tajweed development or a suitable memorisation course.
Can we test the course before paying?
Kahaf Quraan offers three trial classes. Families can use them to check the level, teacher fit, lesson length and available schedule before choosing a plan.
Begin with one letter
Let the first three lessons show you the right next step.
Meet a teacher, check your child's starting level and build a Quran-reading routine that fits family life.
