What is the Noorani Qaida?
The Noorani Qaida is a widely used beginner's book for learning to read the Quran. It introduces the Arabic letters and the rules of reading in small, carefully ordered steps, so learners can read Quranic text accurately before they move on to the Quran itself.
What your child will learn
- The Arabic alphabet and how each letter is pronounced
- How letters change shape when they are joined
- Short vowels (harakat), tanween, sukoon and shaddah
- Long vowels and basic rules of lengthening
- Reading whole words and short phrases fluently
- Early Tajweed habits, such as correct articulation of letters
Why learn it one-to-one?
Small pronunciation mistakes are easy to pick up and hard to undo later. In a one-to-one lesson the tutor hears every letter, corrects it straight away and repeats it as many times as your child needs. That's especially valuable for children who don't hear Arabic at home.
Who is this course for?
- Young children starting to read
- Older children who never learned the basics
- Adults learning to read from scratch
- Anyone who wants to fix shaky foundations
What comes next?
Once your child can read words smoothly, they move on to reading the Quran, and later to Tajweed.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the Noorani Qaida take?
It depends on the learner's age, how often they have classes and how much they practise between lessons. More classes per week usually means faster progress. The tutor will give you a realistic view after the trial.
What age should a child start Noorani Qaida?
Children can start once they can concentrate for a short lesson. The 30-minute Basic plan suits most younger children.
Do I need to buy a Qaida book?
Ask your tutor during the trial. They'll tell you what material they use for lessons.
Is Noorani Qaida suitable for adults?
Yes. Adults learning to read for the first time use the same steps and often move through them quickly.
