A journey with the Qur'an
Quran Keepers is a five-month, after-school Qur'an programme for children — two focused hours a day, five days a week, built on individual attention and steady daily practice.
Alhamdulillah, our Summer Qur'an Enrichment Programme showed us how much children can achieve in a short time when the attention is close and the practice is daily. Students strengthened their Nazrah and Tajweed, memorised several Surahs, and made full use of every opportunity placed before them. The question that followed was the natural one: what happens when school begins again?
This programme is our answer. It carries that momentum into the school year, sitting gently inside the rhythm of a child's day rather than competing with it. Children come after school — with time to return home, eat, rest and breathe first — and spend two focused hours with the Qur'an, five days a week, for five months.
Progress in the Qur'an is rarely the result of intensity. It is the result of return: the same time, the same teacher, the same page, opened again tomorrow. That is what a maktab has always offered, and that is what we are offering here.

Inside the programme
Six things every child receives, every week
1Individual attention
Every child is taught at their own level and pace. Teachers work one to one with each student on their reading, and targets are set for that child — not for the group.
2Nazrah & Tajweed
Reading is built systematically: correct pronunciation of the letters, the rules of Tajweed applied in practice, and fluency that grows until the Qur'an is read with confidence.
3Qur'an memorisation
Students on the Hifz track memorise selected portions with a daily new lesson, revision of the recent, and revision of the old — the three-part discipline that makes memory hold.
4Qur'anic Heroes & Stories
Sessions on the stories of the Qur'an and the lives of the righteous, so that the words being read carry meaning, and the people being read about become companions in a child's imagination.
5Daily diaries & tracking
Each child keeps a diary recording the day's lesson, revision, targets and areas to work on. Parents can see exactly where their child is, and teachers can see exactly what comes next.
6A Qur'an-centred environment
Adab, calm and encouragement shape the room. Our aim is not only that a child learns the Qur'an, but that they leave with a lasting attachment to it.
The learning
Two tracks, one journey
1Track one · Memorisation
Children ready for memorisation work through these portions across the five months.
- Juz ʿAmma — the 30th Juz
- Surah Al-Mulk
- Surah Al-Muzzammil
- Surah Ad-Dukhān
- Surah Ar-Raḥmān
- Surah Al-Wāqiʿah
- Surah Yā-Sīn
2Track two · Early-stage Nazrah
For children at the beginning of their reading, we make every effort to complete the last five Juz within these five months — not as a page count to be rushed, but as the vehicle for developing fluent, confident, correct recitation. A child who finishes this track can pick up the Qur'an and read. Both tracks sit in the same room, under the same teachers, with the same daily rhythm.
3How a session runs
Indicative structure. Teachers adjust the balance of new lesson and revision to suit each child.
- 4:00 – 4:15 · Arrival, settling, opening duʿā
- 4:15 – 5:10 · Individual Nazrah or new memorisation lesson with the teacher
- 5:10 – 5:25 · Short break
- 5:25 – 5:50 · Revision — recent and older portions
- 5:50 – 6:00 · Qur'anic Heroes & Stories, diaries completed, dismissal
Working together
Two hours a day carry much further when the home is behind them. Three small habits make the difference between a child who attends and a child who advances.
Arrive on time. The first fifteen minutes set the tone of the whole session.
Listen for ten minutes. Ask your child to read the day's portion aloud at home.
Open the diary. A weekly glance tells you exactly how your child is progressing.
“The best of you are those who learn the Qur'an and teach it.” — Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī
Good to know
Questions parents ask first
When does it run?
How is my child's track decided?
What does the fee cover?
How will I know how my child is doing?
What is expected of me at home?
Our goal is that every child improves in reading, Tajweed, memorisation and understanding — and that they come to love the Qur'an — through consistent practice, individual attention, structured learning and a nurturing environment.
May Allah make the Qur'an the light of our children's hearts, and a lifelong companion for them. Ameen.
Securing your child's place
Three steps: register your interest with your child's name, age and current level of Qur'an reading; a short one-to-one assessment places them on the right track from day one; then complete the enrolment form and the first month's fee, and your child begins with their group.
