40 outlines
Quran reading foundations
Recognize Arabic letters and connect them into words before attempting longer passages. Lessons move at the learner’s pace, with pronunciation modeled by a teacher and practiced through short, manageable readings.
Read a short, unfamiliar passage with supported correction.
Tajweed and clear recitation
Build an attentive recitation through listening, imitation and correction. The teacher identifies recurring pronunciation difficulties and chooses a small number of rules to practice within real Quranic passages.
Recite a selected passage and explain the rules you applied.
Quran memorization
Create a sustainable memorization routine that gives revision as much attention as new material. Your initial assessment establishes a realistic portion size and a way to record the places that need more work.
Recite your agreed portion from memory with a revision record.
Hifz revision and consolidation
Return to previously memorized portions with a structured cycle of recall and correction. Rather than rushing through a large amount, you will identify weak transitions and build more reliable connections between passages.
Complete a reviewed revision cycle and identify remaining weak points.
Guided Quran recitation
Bring a passage to a live reading session and receive focused feedback. Each lesson ends with one or two concrete practice targets so that independent reading between meetings has a clear purpose.
Demonstrate improvement in the specific reading targets agreed with your teacher.
First steps in Arabic
Start from the sounds and written forms of Arabic. Pair short reading exercises with useful spoken expressions so that the language begins to feel connected to people and meaning.
Introduce yourself and read a short fully vocalized text.
Everyday Arabic conversation
Practice asking questions, describing routines and navigating familiar situations. Lessons use repeated speaking opportunities and gentle correction, with vocabulary selected for the situations you want to discuss.
Sustain a brief conversation about a familiar topic.
Arabic sentence foundations
Discover how Arabic sentences carry meaning through word order, agreement and endings. Work with short examples first, then use the same patterns to write and explain your own sentences.
Explain the main parts of a short sentence and build a parallel example.
Arabic word formation
Explore how roots and patterns connect related words. The course uses careful comparison and contextual reading, helping you recognize recurring forms without assuming that every word’s meaning can be guessed from its root.
Recognize studied patterns and check their meanings in context.
Arabic for Quran readers
Connect Arabic study with attentive reading of selected Quranic phrases. Identify familiar vocabulary and sentence relationships while learning when a dictionary gloss is insufficient and commentary is needed.
Explain a studied phrase’s language while distinguishing translation from tafsir.
Foundations of belief
Build a working vocabulary for discussing faith. The proposed lessons distinguish a statement of belief, its explanation and a question for further study, giving beginning learners a respectful space to ask clearly.
Prepare a concise explanation of one foundational belief.
Introducing Quranic scholarship
Learn how to approach the study of the Quran as a discipline. Organize questions about revelation, text and explanation, then practice locating a claim in a named source rather than relying on an unattributed quotation.
Build a source-labeled glossary for further Quran study.
The Prophet’s life in Makkah
Develop a chronological reading practice for the Makkan portion of the prophetic biography. Each lesson distinguishes the event being discussed, its source and the reflection drawn from it.
Present a short, sourced sequence of events.
Character in daily life
Bring everyday situations into a discussion of character. Use a short reading, a realistic case and a reflection exercise to connect learning with one practical change in personal conduct.
Write a practical reflection on a chosen character trait.
The language of Islamic study
Create a careful foundation in the terms encountered in Islamic books and lessons. Compare translations, record context and practice asking for clarification when an English word does not fully capture an Arabic term.
Produce an annotated vocabulary list with examples.
How Islamic law developed
Build a timeline for the study of Islamic legal thought. The course proposal emphasizes historical sequence and source literacy before discussing differences, helping learners avoid treating centuries of scholarship as a single undifferentiated voice.
Create a sourced timeline and explain its limits.
Purification, prayer and fasting
Study everyday worship through structured questions and teacher-led explanation. Keep school-specific rulings clearly labeled and bring personal circumstances to qualified guidance instead of treating a general lesson as an individual ruling.
Organize a personal study checklist with unresolved questions.
Zakat and pilgrimage study
Learn the vocabulary and structure needed to study zakat and pilgrimage responsibly. Worked educational cases prepare learners to ask precise questions; personal calculations and travel obligations require current, qualified advice.
Explain a studied example and identify when specialist advice is needed.
Ethics of dealings and exchange
Use hypothetical transactions to practice identifying responsibilities, consent and areas needing clarification. This is an educational proposal for guided study, not a service for certifying financial products or contracts.
Present a clearly described case for teacher discussion.
Understanding shorter surahs
Read a short surah alongside a teacher-selected commentary. Separate Arabic wording, translation and explanation, then develop a reflection that remains connected to the actual passage.
Explain the distinction between a verse and a reflection about it.
The Prophet’s life in Madinah
Continue biography study with a timeline of the Madinan period. The proposed work emphasizes context and relationships between events, with room to compare how different source texts present an account.
Prepare a sourced account with clear chronological anchors.
People in Islamic history
Learn to write a balanced biographical profile. Identify a person’s setting, contributions and the sources available, while distinguishing a documented event from a later popular story.
Write a short profile with traceable sources.
Responsibility toward others
Examine how character appears in relationships and shared spaces. Discussion-based lessons ask learners to listen to different perspectives and formulate a concrete, considerate response to a social situation.
Explain a response to a community case and its reasoning.
Responding to difficult questions I
Practice understanding a question before attempting an answer. Identify assumptions, clarify terms and separate what can be answered from what needs research or specialist help.
Produce a response that states both evidence and limits.
Exploring Islamic civilization
Develop a map-and-timeline approach to civilizational history. Work with specific places, periods and sources rather than reducing a diverse history to a list of achievements.
Present a focused case study tied to a place and period.
Studying occasions of revelation
Learn to distinguish a verse from reports about the circumstances of its revelation. Proposed exercises compare source attributions and ask how a report’s reliability affects the way it is used.
Prepare a source-aware reading note on a selected report.
Hadith study foundations
Learn the vocabulary needed to approach hadith collections and teacher-led study. Practice recording references accurately and distinguishing a report’s wording from comments about its status or interpretation.
Create an accurately referenced study record.
Learning through interfaith dialogue
Practice listening, clarifying and representing another person’s position fairly. Use carefully framed conversation exercises to build respectful communication without pretending that differences do not exist.
Summarize another position in terms its holder recognizes.
Islam in Europe and France
Approach this regional history through specific locations and periods. Learn to distinguish historical evidence, contemporary description and personal experience when discussing Muslim communities in Europe.
Prepare a sourced regional case study.
Mapping Islamic intellectual traditions
Build a vocabulary for discussing traditions of Islamic thought. The proposed course emphasizes accurate naming and historical context, with comparisons based on assigned sources rather than slogans.
Produce a comparison that identifies its sources and scope.
Responding to difficult questions II
Extend foundational response skills through longer, researched cases. Draft an answer, invite critical review and revise where the evidence is weak or the question has been misunderstood.
Submit a revised response with a clear evidence trail.
Family matters in Islamic study
Study the terminology and structure of family-related legal topics under qualified instruction. Classroom cases remain hypothetical; actual family disputes require appropriate local legal and religious guidance.
Explain a classroom case without presenting it as personal advice.
Reading verses about legal matters
