More Details Pricing Testimonials
The Islam Basics for Kids Course at Islamic Studies for Kids Academy sequences content deliberately — beliefs before practices, Prophetic stories before jurisprudence, comprehension before memorization. No child moves to the next stage until understanding of the current one is verified through direct questioning by their tutor.
Tutors use demonstrations, age-matched discussion, and real-life scenarios to keep children engaged throughout each session. The distinction between a child who participates and a child who passively listens is what determines whether Islamic knowledge transfers into daily practice outside the classroom.
The Islam Basics curriculum at Islamic Studies for Kids Academy covers four subject areas. Each is available within the full Islam Basics for Kids Course or as a standalone programme based on where the child’s knowledge currently stands.
Children study who Allah is, the Six Articles of Iman, the names of angels, the prophets, and the reality of the Day of Judgment through concrete examples matched to their age group. This Aqeedah module is available within the full Islam Basics for Kids Course or as an independent starting programme for children with no prior Islamic education.
Practical worship is taught through live demonstration — tutors model each Wudu step and Salah posture on screen, then observe each child replicate it. The Five Pillars are introduced with real-life context explaining why Muslims pray, what Sawm teaches, and what the Shahada means beyond its literal wording. Enrollable as part of the Islam Basics programme for kids or as a focused standalone worship classes module.
Stories from the Prophet’s life (SAW) and selected earlier Prophets are taught as moral examples rather than historical timelines. Children in the Islam Basics for Kids Course connect honesty, patience, and generosity to specific Seerah incidents they can recall and apply to situations they face at school and at home.
Children memorize and understand the Duas for waking, eating, entering and leaving the home, and sleeping alongside the Islamic etiquette each supplication carries. This track is offered within the full Islam Basics for Kids Course and as a standalone module for families who want to begin with daily character-building and Sunnah habits before covering wider Islamic content.
Outcomes
Students who complete the Aqeedah stage of the Islam Basics for Kids Course explain the Six Articles of Iman accurately in their own words. Tutors at Islamic Studies for Kids Academy verify comprehension through structured verbal questioning before any child progresses to the next content level. A child who can explain Tawheed in their own words holds that knowledge more durably than one who repeated a definition without understanding what it means — that distinction shapes how Islamic Studies for Kids Academy designs every Aqeedah session.
Practical Fiqh outcomes are assessed through live observation during Islam Basics classes. Tutors watch each child perform Wudu steps and Salah postures on screen, correcting both movement and recitation in real time rather than waiting for a written test to surface errors. Correct prayer mechanics established in childhood become a lifelong physical habit. Errors that go uncorrected before puberty are significantly harder to address once the obligation of Salah applies to the child in full.
Children completing the Seerah stage of the Islam Basics for Kids Course recall specific Prophetic incidents and identify the moral principle each one carries. Seerah is structured as a practical character guide rather than a historical syllabus — students reference these stories when navigating situations they face personally. When a child knows how the Prophet (SAW) responded to insult, loss, or difficulty, that example becomes an accessible personal reference — not a classroom story they forget between sessions.
Children who finish the Adab and Adhkar stage of the Islam Basics for Kids Course use daily Duas without being prompted — before eating, upon waking, and when entering and leaving the home. Parents typically observe this behavioral shift before they see it reflected in a written progress report. Every Islamic manner taught in this module is tied directly to a Hadith source. Children know the Prophetic basis behind each practice rather than learning it as a habit without religious grounding.
Muslim children in Western schools encounter direct questions about their faith from classmates, teachers, and administrators regularly. The Islam Basics for Kids Course equips children with accurate knowledge and the English vocabulary to respond with grounded confidence rather than uncertainty or avoidance. Tutors at Islamic Studies for Kids Academy address the real questions Western Muslim children encounter in their actual school environments not theoretical questions written for a different audience or context.

Real transformations from students who mastered the Quran with our courses
I took a course at Shaykhi Academy, and my name is Hamza Osama from England. During my time there, I learned the Arabic alphabet and Tajweed rules. I have also successfully memorized approximately two Juz of the Quran. My teacher was the best, and I feel I benefited a lot from him. I would advise anyone who wants to learn the Arabic language, Tajweed rules, or the Quran to join Shaykhi Academy.
I took a class at Shaykhi Academy with Mr. Luqman, and I had a lot of fun learning with him. I even got the chance to meet him in Egypt! I learned a lot from my time with him, including Tajweed, Tahweed, Arabic reading, and Quran. I've been learning with him for about a year now. Thank you for your time.
I’m Yahia Sarhan, I’m 15 years old and I’m from Canada. I’ve been a student at Shaykhi Academy since 2019, so about three or four years now. It’s been a great learning opportunity for me and I’ve learned a lot about Islamic studies, the Quran, and Arabic reading. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who’s trying to learn.
