Quran and Sunnah PROGRAM (QSP)

The Quran and Sunnah are our timeless sources of guidance for humanity. Today, connecting with these sources is more crucial than ever for a brighter future.

About Quran & Sunnah Program (QSP):

Quran and Sunnah Program (QSP), a vital initiative by Character Education Foundation (CEF), has expanded nationwide. We provide Quranic education to thousands of students in government and private schools across Pakistan. Our curriculum includes comprehensive Nazirah Quran and Fahm-ul-Quran. We offer customized Fahm-ul-Quran courses for adults, ensuring that everyone can benefit from Quranic education. Another highlight of our program is the Hifz with Understanding initiative, which combines Quran memorization with comprehension.

Unlock Quran’s depths with our Nazirah and Fahm-ul-Quran courses precisely crafted using Dr. Abdulazeez Abdulraheem’s revolutionary teaching method.

Dr. Abdulazeez Abdulraheem

A Catalyst for Quranic Learning

Dr. Abdulazeez Abdulraheem is the founder of “Understand Quran Academy and the designer of the course “Understand Quran, the Easy Way”. He is a distinguished Islamic scholar and educator celebrated for his groundbreaking work of simplifying Quranic studies.

Dr. Abdulazeez Abdulraheem has made Quranic learning significantly easier for non-Arabic speakers through his innovative methods revolutionizing how the Quran is taught and understood. His approach includes:

1. Total Physical Interaction (TPI):

Kinesthetic Learning: TPI involves using body movements and gestures to represent Arabic sounds and grammar rules. This engages kinesthetic learners effectively.

Memorable Associations: By connecting physical actions to language elements, students create strong mental associations, aiding recall.

Interactive Learning: TPI transforms learning from passive listening to active participation, enhancing engagement and comprehension.

2. Emphasis on Pronunciation:

Phonetic-Based Learning: Given the challenges of Arabic pronunciation for non-Arabic speakers, Dr. Abdulazeez Abdulraheem has emphasized on phonetic training to ensure accurate recitation. This would involve breaking down Arabic sounds into familiar phonetic equivalents.

3. Grammar Rules Made Easy:

Simplified Explanations: Complex grammar concepts are broken down into easily understandable terms and rules.

Practical Application: Grammar rules are taught in context, allowing students to see their relevance and usage in real sentences.

Pattern Recognition: Students are encouraged to identify recurring patterns in grammar, fostering intuitive understanding.

4. Contextual Understanding:

Special emphasis on learning the meaning of the Quran: Emphasizing on the meaning and key takeout lessons of the Quranic verses along with their recitation and translation helps students connect with the text on a deeper level.

5. Gradual Textual Progression:

From shorter and simpler to longer and complex: Starting with shorter, simpler Surahs (chapters) and concepts to gradually moving to longer, more complex ones is a common approach. This allows students to build confidence and proficiency gradually.

By combining these elements, Dr. Abdulazeez Abdulraheem has successfully transformed Quranic learning from a daunting task into an achievable and rewarding journey for non-Arabic speakers. His contributions have empowered countless individuals to connect with the Quran on a deeper level.

Recognizing his remarkable contributions, Character Education Foundation (CEF) has integrated his courses into its Quran and Sunnah Program (QSP) for its Nazirah/tajweed and Fahm-ul-Quran courses to achieve optimal impact.

Hifz With Understanding

Bridging Quranic Memorization and Comprehension 

In Pakistan, there exists a wealth of Huffaz (Quran memorizers) who are globally esteemed. However, a significant number lack a deep understanding of the Quran’s meaning. To address this gap, Character Education Foundation(CEF) has developed a comprehensive system tailored for students in madrasas, focusing on both memorization and understanding of the Quran.

This prepares students holistically, enabling them to compete effectively with mainstream educational standards upon completing grade 8.

Transforming Madrasa Education: Character Education Foundation’s initiative aims to transition madrasas from traditional memorization-focused education to a comprehensive understanding-based approach. Our program is widely recognized for its effectiveness and popularity, supporting madrasas across Pakistan in nurturing a profound connection with the Quran and Sunnah.
