Every Quran Journey Starts Here — But Most Parents Don't Know How

Your child wants to learn the Quran. You want them to learn it correctly — with proper pronunciation, proper Tajweed, and a genuine love for the words of Allah. But without learning the foundations first, even the most eager child will struggle. Mispronounced letters become habits. Bad habits become barriers. And a child who feels lost quickly loses motivation.
The Noorani Qaida is not just a beginner’s book. It is the gateway to the entire Quran — the foundation that every great Quran reciter was built on. Get it right at the start, and everything that follows becomes easier.
That is exactly what Al-Huda’s Noorani Qaida course is designed to do.
Give Your Child a Real Quran Teacher

What Is Noorani Qaida?

Noorani Qaida is the foundational text used to teach beginners how to read the Arabic alphabet and the Quran. Developed by Molvi Noor Muhammad Ludhianvi, it is the most widely used introductory course for Quran reading in the world — used by millions of Muslim children and adults to learn correct Arabic pronunciation before beginning Quran recitation.
The word “Qaida” means “rule” or “foundation” in Arabic. The Noorani Qaida systematically introduces students to:
  • Arabic letters and their correct pronunciation (Makhraj)
  • Letter shapes in different positions (beginning, middle, end)
  • Vowel marks (Harakaat) — Fathah, Kasrah, and Dammah
  • Compound letters and joined words
  • Basic rules of Tajweed
  • Quran-style reading exercises
Completing the Noorani Qaida course prepares a student to read the Holy Quran fluently and correctly — making it the essential first step for anyone beginning their Quran learning journey.

Why Choose Al-Huda for Noorani Qaida?

There are many ways to learn Noorani Qaida online. Here is what makes the Al-Huda approach different — and why it produces better results.

One Dedicated, Certified Tutor — Always

Your child learns with the same Ijazah-certified tutor from lesson one to lesson last. No rotations, no substitutes. Their tutor learns their pace, personality, and pronunciation patterns — and teaches accordingly. This consistency is what accelerates progress.

Designed for Very Young Learners

Our Noorani Qaida tutors are specially trained to work with children as young as 4 years old. Classes are made engaging, interactive, and age-appropriate — with positive reinforcement, repetition techniques, and patience at every step. Your child will look forward to their class, not dread it.

Structured, Step-by-Step Curriculum

We follow the complete, authentic Noorani Qaida syllabus — from the very first Arabic letter to full Quran-style reading exercises. Every lesson builds on the last. Students never move forward until each step is fully mastered.

Real Progress You Can See

After every 4 classes, your child’s tutor provides a progress update. After every month, you receive a detailed written assessment — which letters have been mastered, which need reinforcement, and what comes next. No guessing. No vague reassurances. Real feedback.

What Your Child Will Learn — Complete Noorani Qaida Curriculum

Our Noorani Qaida course follows the authentic, complete syllabus. Here is exactly what is covered, lesson by lesson:

Module 1 — Arabic Alphabet (Huroof e Tahajji)

The journey begins with the 29 Arabic letters. Students learn to recognise, write, and pronounce each letter individually, understanding the exact point of articulation (Makhraj) for every sound.

Covered in this module:

  • All 29 Arabic letters — recognition and pronunciation
  • Makhraj (articulation points) of each letter
  • Letters that are similar in shape but different in sound
  • Letters that exist only in Arabic (no English equivalent)

Module 2 — Letter Shapes in Different Positions

Arabic letters change shape depending on where they appear in a word — at the beginning, in the middle, or at the end. Students learn all forms of every letter until recognition becomes automatic.

Covered in this module:

  • Initial form (beginning of word)
  • Medial form (middle of word)
  • Final form (end of word)
  • Isolated form (standalone letter)

Module 3 — Harakaat (Vowel Marks)

Vowel marks are the short strokes above and below Arabic letters that determine pronunciation. This module is foundational — without mastering Harakaat, a student cannot read any Arabic text.

Covered in this module:

  • Fathah ( َ ) — the "a" sound
  • Kasrah ( ِ ) — the "i" sound
  • Dammah ( ُ ) — the "u" sound
  • Sukoon ( ْ ) — absence of vowel
  • Shadda / Tashdid ( ّ ) — doubling of consonant

Module 4 — Compound Letters (Huroof e Murakkabat)

Once individual letters and vowel marks are mastered, students begin joining letters together — the critical skill of reading flowing Arabic text.

Covered in this module:

  • Two-letter compounds
  • Three-letter compounds
  • Reading joined words from right to left
  • Recognising letters within compound forms

Module 5 — Madd Letters (Long Vowels)

Madd means “elongation” — the stretching of certain vowel sounds. This is one of the most important Tajweed concepts and is introduced in Noorani Qaida before full Quran recitation begins.

Covered in this module:

  • Alif Madd ( ا )
  • Waw Madd ( و )
  • Ya Madd ( ي )
  • Duration of elongation (2 counts)

Module 6 — Leen Letters

Leen letters produce a soft, gentle sound and are commonly found throughout the Quran. Mastering Leen is essential for natural, flowing recitation.

Covered in this module:

  • Waw Leen ( وْ )
  • Ya Leen ( يْ )
  • Pronunciation exercises with Leen letters in context

Module 7 — Tanween (Nunnation)

Tanween refers to the “n” sound added at the end of certain Arabic words. It appears frequently throughout the Quran and must be mastered for correct recitation.

Covered in this module:

  • Tanween Fath ( ً )
  • Tanween Kasr ( ٍ )
  • Tanween Damm ( ٌ )
  • Pronunciation of Tanween in reading

Module 8 — Rules of Noon Sakinah & Tanween

One of the fundamental Tajweed rules — how to pronounce Noon when it carries a Sukoon or appears as Tanween. There are four rules and students master all of them in this module.

Covered in this module:

  • Izhar (clear pronunciation)
  • Idgham (merging)
  • Iqlab (conversion)
  • Ikhfa (hiding)

Module 9 — Rules of Meem Sakinah

Similar to Noon Sakinah, this module covers how Meem is pronounced when it carries a Sukoon — another essential Tajweed rule introduced in Noorani Qaida.

Covered in this module:

  • Ikhfa Shafawi
  • Idgham Shafawi
  • Izhar Shafawi

Module 10 — Rules of Waqf (Stopping)

Waqf means “stopping” — the rules governing where and how to pause during Quran recitation. Correct Waqf is essential for preserving the meaning of Quranic verses.

Covered in this module:

  • Compulsory stops (Waqf Laazim)
  • Preferred stops (Waqf Mutlaq)
  • Permissible stops (Waqf Ja'iz)
  • Waqf symbols and their meanings

Module 11 — Quran Reading Exercises

The final module puts everything together. Students practice reading authentic Quranic text using all the rules and skills developed throughout the course — the bridge between Noorani Qaida and Quran recitation.

Covered in this module:

  • Short Quranic words and phrases
  • Quran-style reading with Tajweed application
  • Speed and fluency development
  • Tutor-led correction and feedback
  • Graduation assessment — readiness for Quran reading

BONUS — Islamic Studies Component (20% of Class Time)

At Al-Huda, Noorani Qaida is not just about reading skills. Our tutors dedicate 20% of every class to building Islamic knowledge and character alongside reading ability.
  • Basic Aqeedah (beliefs about Allah, Angels, Prophets, and Holy Books)
  • The Five Pillars of Islam
  • How to perform Wudu correctly
  • How to pray Salah — the five daily prayers
  • Memorisation of short Surahs and Six Kalimahs
  • Ayat ul Kursi, Dua e Qunoot, and Masnoon duas
  • Islamic manners and etiquette for daily life
  • Age-appropriate Islamic stories and lessons
