About this course
About the Quran Translation Course
Most of us recite the Quran every day without knowing exactly what the words mean. This course changes that. You learn the meaning of each Arabic word, then how the words come together in a verse.
Because the Quran repeats many of its words, a small vocabulary goes a long way. As you learn the most common words, you start to recognise them everywhere, from your salah to the duas you recite.
We begin with Surah Al Fatiha and the short surahs used in prayer, then move to the passages you choose. Translation is the natural step before Tafseer, where you study the deeper meanings.
From the Quran and the Ahlul Bayt (as)
Words of Guidance
كِتَابٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهُ إِلَيْكَ مُبَارَكٌ لِيَدَّبَّرُوا آيَاتِهِ
“A blessed Book that We have sent down to you, so that they may reflect upon its verses.”
إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ قُرْآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ
“Indeed, We have sent it down as an Arabic Quran so that you may understand.”

FAQ
Quran Translation Course Questions
Answers to what students and parents usually ask about this course.
What is the difference between Translation and Tafseer?
Translation teaches what the words mean. Tafseer explains the deeper meaning, context and lessons of the verses. Many students take Translation first, then Tafseer.
Do I need to read Arabic first?
It helps to be able to read the Arabic text so you can follow along. If you cannot read yet, you can start with Quran Reading or take both courses together.
Which language are classes taught in?
Classes are taught in clear English.
