Boys' Hifz with Academics

Full-time memorization of the Qur'an, alongside a serious academic curriculum.

Boys' Hifz with Academics
Overview

Why this program.

The Hifz program is the heart of Madaniyya Academy. Every day, students spend their mornings with the Qur'an — memorizing, reviewing, and being shaped by it — before turning to a full academic curriculum in the afternoon.

The pace is patient. The environment is calm. Boys graduate not only as huffāẓ, but as young men who can carry themselves in a classroom, a workplace, and a masjid with equal confidence.

What defines it

Highlights of the program.

01

Two teachers per student, functionally

A hifz teacher for the Qur'an and dedicated academic teachers for literacy, numeracy, and the sciences.

02

Structured review

Sabaq, sabaqi and manzil built into every day — the mechanism that turns memorization into retention.

03

Character as curriculum

Adab, akhlāq and adhkār taught as their own subject, not treated as extra-curricular.

The daily rhythm

Memorization built for lasting retention.

Each student follows an individualized plan, with new learning balanced by deliberate revision and attentive listening.

01

Sabak — new memorization

New portions are assigned according to each student's ability, pace, and consistency, allowing progress without sacrificing accuracy.

02

Sabqi — recent revision

Recently memorized passages are revisited frequently so that new learning becomes secure before the student moves further ahead.

03

Manzil — long-term revision

Previously memorized sections remain part of the daily routine, building the disciplined revision habit required of a hafiz.

04

Tajweed and listening

Individual listening sessions and direct Tajweed instruction strengthen pronunciation, fluency, confidence, and beautiful recitation.

The whole student

Qur'an, academics, and character in one day.

01

Ontario curriculum learning

Students continue their academic growth through Ontario curriculum subjects alongside their Qur'anic studies.

02

Islamic character

Adab, sincerity, respect, responsibility, daily salah, and spiritual reminders help students live the values they are memorizing.

03

Progress shared with families

Daily checks, weekly evaluations, revision testing, Tajweed assessments, and parent updates help teachers and families support each student together.
