The Hifzul Qur'an Programme
Building hearts attached to the Book of Allah, while nurturing excellence in education.
“The best among you are those who learn the Qur’an and teach it.”
Sahih al-Bukhari, 5027
What Makes Our Programme Special
Structured Daily Memorization
A clear, progressive path through the Qur'an, paced to each child.
Qualified Huffaz Teachers
Instruction from those who have themselves memorized the Qur'an with tajweed.
Regular Murajah
Weekly revision built into the schedule so memorized portions are never lost.
Character Development

If One Programme Defines Our Soul,
It Is This
SIS firmly believes there can be no truly Islamic school without a serious, structured Qur’an memorization programme running alongside general schooling. Children begin with short, frequently-recited Surahs before progressing juz by juz, according to their own capability — with weekly revision built in so nothing memorized is ever forgotten.

“Such a person who recites the Qur’an and masters it by heart will be with the noble, righteous scribes. And such a person who exerts himself to learn it with difficulty will have a double reward.”
Sahih al-Bukhari, 4937
Ten Minutes a Day, At Home
Help your child revise their daily Hifz portion at home, even for just ten minutes after Fajr, after Maghrib, or before bed.
👪 Recommended: Listening to your child recite — even if you cannot read Arabic yourself — is itself an act of support that they will feel and remember. Consistency at home doubles the effectiveness of what is taught at school.

Why Memorise the Noble Qur’an?
The very first word revealed to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was “Iqra” — Read. Allah promises a reward for every single letter of the Qur’an recited, multiplied ten times over, and for the one who carries it in their heart the blessings grow deeper still. Here is a glimpse of what awaits every child who memorises the Qur’an with us, in shā’ Allāh.
10 Hasanat
For every letter recited, one good deed — multiplied tenfold.
Protection from Fitnah
The first ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf shield the reciter from the trial of the Dajjal.
A Crown of Light
A parent's crown on the Day of Judgement will shine brighter than the sun.
Elevated in Jannah
Every verse recited from memory raises the Hafiz a level higher in Paradise.
A Life of Honour
The Hafiz carries a status of true distinction — even leading others in prayer by right of knowledge, and, as at the Battle of Uhud, given precedence in burial ahead of others. (Sahih al-Bukhari)
A Sign Allah Wills Good for Your Child
The Prophet ﷺ taught that when Allah intends good for someone, He grants them deep understanding of the deen — and there is no greater understanding than that of His own Book. (Sahih al-Bukhari)
Among Allah’s Own People
Those devoted to the Qur’an are described by the Prophet ﷺ as the family of Allah and His chosen ones. (Ahmad & An-Nasa’i)
Protection from the Dajjal
Whoever memorises the opening ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf is promised protection from the trial of the Dajjal. (Sahih Muslim)
Rising Through the Ranks of Jannah
The companion of the Qur’an will be told in Paradise to recite and ascend — rising a level higher for every verse remembered. (Abu Dawood)
A Crown and Garment of Honour
On the Day of Judgement, the Qur’an itself will intercede for its companion, who will be clothed in a crown and garment of honour for every verse recited.
The Greatest Gift to a Parent
A child’s dedication to the Qur’an brings their parents a crown of light on the Day of Judgement — more radiant than the sun itself. (Mishkat al-Masabih)
A Witness on the Day of Judgement
Surah Al-Baqarah and Surah Aal-‘Imran will appear on the Day of Judgement to plead the case of those who recited them in this life. (Sahih Muslim)
Reward Even for Effort
The one who memorises with ease is honoured among the noble scribes, and the one who struggles yet perseveres earns an even greater, doubled reward. (Sahih al-Bukhari)
Made Easy, By Allah’s Promise
Allah Himself declares in Surah Al-Qamar that He has made the Qur’an easy to learn and remember — a promise repeated four times in one surah. (Al-Qamar, 54:17)
Every letter your child recites — whether in our daily Hifz classes or the Extensive Hifz Programme — is a seed planted for the Hereafter, in shā’ Allāh.
Frequently Asked Questions
What age can children start?
Qur’an memorization begins from the Early Years, with short, frequently-recited Surahs introduced age-appropriately from Playgroup onward.
Do parents need Arabic knowledge?
Not at all. Listening to your child recite — even if you cannot read Arabic yourself — is itself a meaningful act of support.
How is progress measured?
Each child’s Hifz progress is tracked individually and shared with parents through EximusEdu and at Parent-Teacher Meetings.
What if my child memorizes slowly?
Every child’s Hifz journey is personal. SIS avoids public comparison and unhealthy competition around memorization speed — steady, sincere effort is what matters.
Is the programme compulsory?
Qur’an memorization is a core part of the SIS curriculum for every student. The Extensive Hifz track is an optional, accelerated add-on for families who want it.
Give Your Child the Gift of the Qur'an
A living, lasting relationship with the Book of Allah begins with a single day. Let that day be today, In Sha Allah.
