What a child learns in our online madrasa
Many madrasa pages list long subject lists. We keep it simple and let the teacher agree the topics with you in the free trial.
Duas
The short duas a child uses in daily life, learnt a few at a time.
Prayer basics
How to pray, step by step, at a pace that suits the child.
Good manners
Adab: how a Muslim child treats family, friends and teachers.
Not reading yet? Start with Noorani Qaida. For reading only, see Quran classes for kids. For recitation rules, see Tajweed. For memorising, see Hifz.
One-to-one, small group or fixed term?
UK online madrasas teach in different ways. Here is how they differ, so you can choose.
One-to-one
One child with one teacher, so the lesson follows the child.
Ayat Way
Small group
Some madrasas teach a few children at once. Each child gets less teacher time.
Other madrasas
Fixed term
Some madrasas run a term of several months with a set timetable.

Questions parents ask before they enrol
Most madrasa pages leave these unanswered. Here are our answers.
Does it fit around school?
Lessons run in the evening and at weekends. Weekend lessons cost 50p more. We confirm the time when you book.
What does a parent do?
A parent sits beside a child aged 4 or 5. For older children, any parent may sit in.
Can a girl have a female teacher?
Yes. Most of our teachers are female, and you can choose a female or male teacher.
Are lessons live or recorded?
Live and one-to-one on Zoom or Google Meet. The academy does not record lessons.

Tick as you go. Show the sheet to your child's teacher in the next lesson.
An online madrasa is not an online school
Search for an online Islamic school and you mostly find full-time schools that follow the British curriculum. Ours is different. It is a part-time madrasa that runs alongside your child's school, with lessons in the evening or at weekends.
We do not teach the national curriculum and we are not an inspected school. If you want a full-time Islamic school, this is not it. If you want your child to read the Quran and learn the basics of Islam at home, it is a good fit.
Online madrasa fees
Quran with Islamic studies lessons are £6 to £7 for each 45-minute one-to-one lesson. The trial lesson is free. Ask about the sibling discount for two or three children.
Cost of a madrasa month
Quran with Islamic studies (£6 to £7), 2 lessons a week£48 to £56for 8 lessons of 45 minutes in a 4-week month
Fees next to listed monthly madrasa plans
Two UK providers we checked on 30 October 2026 list one-to-one monthly plans of 30-minute lessons. We turn them into a price per hour so you can compare.
| Option | Monthly | Per lesson | Per hour |
|---|---|---|---|
| Listed monthly plans (30-minute lessons) | £25 to £40 | £2.00 to £3.75 | £4.00 to £7.50 |
| Ayat Way Quran with Islamic studies (45 minutes) | £48 to £56 for 2 lessons a week | £6 to £7 | £8.00 to £9.33 |
These are two providers, so a rough guide, not a market average. Their lessons are shorter and cost less per month. Ours are 45 minutes and include Islamic studies with a teacher, one-to-one. Compare lesson length and teacher, not only price. Prices change, so check before you decide.
We confirm the exact price before you pay. If you are not happy, we refund you. See all fees for every course.
