Favorite Learning Links


Asalaam ‘Alaikum:

In my travels, I have found a lot of wonderful sites for educating your children. So, I’ve decided to share some of my favorites with you. Insha’Allah you will enjoy them as much as we did.

Please note: Some of these sites may have other materials or lessons that I do not agree with. I only use these links how they are categorized. Please use discretion when using these links – take what is good and leave what is bad, insha’Allah.

Here are just a few links – I tried my best to categorize them. I will be adding many more when time allows.

** QUR’AN MEMORIZATION **

Imaanstar – Memorize Juz 30 We just recently purchased a program online and then found this program (this program is better than the program we purchased!). This program is (by far) the best program I have seen for memorizing Qur’an. You can set up several students and bookmark what they have learned and what they are learning. It is awesome!
