Edinburgh families and students are choosing one-to-one Quran lessons at home. Our qualified male and female teachers teach children and adults online, from the Arabic letters to Tajweed and Hifz, on UK time.
Edinburgh's Muslim community is smaller and more spread out than in some UK cities, with families in Leith, the Southside and the suburbs, and many international students.
That can make finding a local Quran teacher difficult. Online classes give you a wide choice of qualified teachers, including female teachers, without travelling across the city.
Hassaan Online Academy LTD is a UK-registered academy (Company No. 16444822) offering online Quran classes for children and adults across the country, with a free trial before you enrol.


Children in Leith, Gorgie and the Southside can learn after school with short, focused lessons and a teacher who follows their progress closely.
Lessons are one-to-one and last around 30 minutes, which suits young children's attention span. Your child starts with Noorani Qaida, moves on to reading the Quran with Tajweed and can begin memorising short Surahs, while parents can sit in and receive regular progress updates.
Online Quran classes for kidsStudents at Edinburgh's universities and working adults book private lessons around study and work, from beginner level to advanced Tajweed.
Lessons are private, so you can start from the letters, polish your Tajweed or memorise Surahs without feeling self-conscious. Early-morning, lunchtime and late-evening slots fit around work and family.


Edinburgh's Muslim community is spread across the city, from Leith and Gorgie to Morningside and the student areas around the University, so a Quran teacher is rarely on your doorstep. An online Quran tutor gives you a qualified male or female teacher for live, one-to-one Quran and Islamic lessons wherever you live in Edinburgh.
The free trial class lets you meet your teacher first, hear their recitation and see how they correct mistakes, before you decide anything.
Edinburgh's universities attract Muslim students and researchers from around the world, and many want to keep improving their recitation while they study. Online Tajweed lessons fit around lab hours and lectures, with explanations in English.
Tajweed course →In Edinburgh, a daily online Hifz session saves families a journey across the city in the dark winter months, and lets children memorise at home with a teacher who knows their progress.
Hifz programme →Edinburgh Central Mosque on Potterrow, close to the University, is the city's best-known mosque, with smaller centres elsewhere. If you are comparing a Quran academy or online Islamic lessons in Edinburgh with local classes, these are the differences families usually consider:
| Consider | One-to-one online | Group class nearby |
|---|---|---|
| Getting there | Nothing to travel to anywhere in Edinburgh | Drop-off and pick-up every lesson |
| Who listens to you | Your own teacher, every minute | One teacher for the whole class |
| When | Any slot that fits school or work | Set evenings or weekends |
| Progress | A personal plan for each learner | Everyone follows the class level |
| Sisters and girls | Female teacher if you prefer | Not always offered |
| Social side | Learning one-to-one at home | Friends from the local area |
A good local madrasah offers community that a screen cannot replace, and many Edinburgh families combine the two: the mosque for community, and one-to-one online lessons for steady, personal progress in reading, Tajweed and Hifz.
