Questions from parents in England

Is this just a sales brochure?

No. It is a comparison tool with standards we expect to be held to as well, including the red flags that apply to us.

How do I check a teacher is properly qualified?

The guide explains Ijazah verification, how to ask for a chain of transmission and what an honest answer sounds like.

Are your teachers vetted?

Every teacher is interviewed, reference-checked and identity-verified, and parents may sit in on any lesson at any time.

What should Quran lessons cost in the UK?

The guide gives benchmark ranges; our own weekend plans start at £35 a month and five-day plans at £50.

Can we try before committing?

Yes — three free 1-on-1 lessons, no card required, and no contract afterwards.

Do you teach across all of England?

Yes, lessons are online on GMT/BST timings, so any town or city in England works.
