About YAFQAH

Untie Your Tongue. Be Understood.

YAFQAH is inspired by the du'a of Prophet Musa ('alayhi as-salam) in the Qur'an — وَاحْلُلْ عُقْدَةً مِّن لِّسَانِي ۝ يَفْقَهُوا قَوْلِي — “And untie the knot from my tongue, that they may understand my speech.”

Based in Cairo, Egypt, our academy helps students around the world connect with the Qur'an from their very first letters to fluent, beautiful recitation and memorisation.

When you learn with us, you get a dedicated teacher who knows your goals, tracks your progress personally, and adapts every lesson to you. No large classes, no hand-offs — just consistent, focused guidance.

  • Patient, encouraging and never rushed
  • Lessons for children, teens and adults
  • Flexible scheduling across time zones
