“IQRA Academy has brought what we have being searching for a few years now. Instead of following Shaykhs and Hafidhs in different states, Iqra Academy brought us, in our own home state and in our neighborhood, the ideal model our kids can relate to. Young Sheikhs, born and raised here, who speak the same language, who went through the same process…”
“It has always been tough to convince our kids to follow the steps of some Sheikh’s that has lived in a Muslim country. My 2 boys meet up with their friends there and are serious during the program. They also have some fun during their breaks or during the organized trips to fun places such as SkyZone. Our kids know that they are not alone in this endeavor. And in a six month period, the progress has been great Alhumdulilah. We pray that Allah bless this institution, help it thrive and grow. We have no doubt this IQRA Academy Hifdh program will attract students from other states in the future in shaa Allah.”
