Learn Arabic letters and Qur’an reading with Tilawa

Arabic letters, letter sounds and word reading, followed by guided recitation practice.

About Tilawa

Tilawa is Qaaf’s basic Qur’an-reading programme for children who are beginning their learning journey or need to strengthen their reading skills. It starts with recognizing Arabic letters and their sounds, then moves towards reading words and practising recitation.

The focus is a foundation the learner can use in each new lesson. Guided instruction and regular practice help children connect letter recognition with reading, rather than relying only on memorized sounds.

Who this programme is for

Children learning Arabic letters for the first time, and children who need more practice before progressing with Qur’an reading.

What you’ll study

  • Recognizing Arabic letters
  • Learning correct letter sounds
  • Reading connected letters and words
  • Progressive Qur’an recitation practice

Course questions

Does my child need to know Arabic letters before joining?

Tilawa is designed for beginners as well as children who need to strengthen their reading. Share your child’s current level when applying.

What comes after basic reading?

Qaaf also offers a children’s Tajwid programme. The appropriate next step depends on the learner’s reading and recitation needs.
