About the School
The Saturday School at Dar Al-Taqwa Islamic Center is thoughtfully designed for non-Arabic speaking children aged 6 to 14. This weekend program provides a comprehensive introduction to Islamic education, with Quran instruction tailored to each student's level—ranging from Norani Qaida for beginners to the memorization of short Surahs for more advanced learners.
In addition to Quranic studies, students engage in lessons on Islam and the Seerah (life of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ), helping them develop both knowledge and love of their faith. The program aims to provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can build lifelong friendships and a strong Islamic identity, while creating opportunities for parents to connect and organize community meetups.
