Learn In a Community of Care

We are focused on what is important, you.  The journey of Qur'aanic Arabic fluency is one that requires patience, care, and concern for the learner and the language, which is what we focus upon at ILI.

Read and Connect With Qur'aan

Read was the first command to Muhammed the Prophet (SAW).  And In just a few short weeks you will be able to connect with the symbols in Qur'aan to make sounds.  Sounds become words, words become sentences, and sentences bring about meaning.
