Taḥfīẓ Program

Overview

MDQ Academy’s Taḥfīẓ program provides a comprehensive program which goes beyond memorization alone. Our Taḥfīẓ students get the benefit of memorizing in the manner passed down to us by our tradition, in our beautiful Muṣallā, while also attending a full-time school that caters to their academic and extracurricular needs.
