I had a passion to learn from azhar shareef and once I found out they had an online academy I was overjoyed. Alhamdulillah I finished my maqamats with ustaz Abdulrahman Hamoud, excellent teacher who taught me step by step without me feeling overwhelmed. I also love the portal which the academy has made for students makes learning much easier and accessible. I thank all the dedicated teachers in ulum al azhar along with those who are supporting it. May Allah reward you in this world and in the next. Ameen.

🌸 My Experience with the Academy 🌸
My Ustaadhaty is incredibly kind, sweet, patient, and attentive. I enjoy my classes with her so much. She explains everything very clearly, and whenever I feel confused, she always takes the time to clarify it for me. She gently reminds me of rules I forget, and I truly appreciate her dedication. Her teaching style is structured and clear, which makes every lesson easy to follow and highly beneficial 🌸
I ask Allah ‘azza wa jall to make this academy a source of beneficial knowledge, and to bless all the teachers and the Shaykh with goodness, success, and continuous barakah.
The app portal is very cute and easy to access, and everything has been smooth for me. It is well‑organised and easy to navigate, with all essential features clearly laid out, which makes accessing classes and materials very efficient. The support team has also been very helpful and considerate, which adds to the overall positive experience.
This academy is truly WONDERFUL 🩷
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
JazakAllahu khayran, Shaykh, for this wonderful opportunity to learn Qur’an and its related knowledge. I really enjoy it, Alhamdulillah 🌸

JazakAllahu khairan for your beautiful feedback! We’re so happy you’re enjoying your classes and finding the teachers and portal helpful. May Allah bless your learning journey and put lasting barakah in the academy. Ameen! 🩷🌸
My daughter has been learning with Ulum Al Azhar for nearly a year now, she loves her teacher Ustadah Sara and she is genuinely progressing very well in her terms of her Quranic studies. The benefit of the programme is that it is well rounded and includes lessons on the seerah, charector of the Prophet Pbuh and as well as quran studies, I get a report and recording after each lesson as well areas to work on. The app is brilliant and really easy to use, it also means that I can access everything that I need to as well as my daughter so as a parent this is a real benefit.
The quality of the teaching and the training of the teacher are second to none. It's a real privilege for my daughter to be trained by such highly qualified staff and the supplementary adults lessons are so amazing and I real look forward to them. Overall, if you have children and want an all inclusive Islamic studies programme alongside courses that you yourself can access, then I would really recommend Ulum Al Azhar!

A Structured Path to Knowledge with Al-Azhar Teachers
I have never found an academy with teachers and scholars from Al-Azhar, Egypt that is as well-structured as this one.
The classes are very organized, and they even provide recordings for revision and for lectures in case you miss them.
Even though I am not able to go to Al-Azhar yet because I do not fully know Arabic, I can attend their courses to prepare myself. In shā’ Allāh, one day I will be able to study at Al-Azhar and interact with the Egyptians in Arabic.
I truly love Egypt and really appreciate an academy that is structured like this. May Allah bless all the teachers in this academy and reward them for their efforts.

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful and heartfelt feedback. We’re truly honored to be part of your Quran journey and grateful for your kind words about our teachers and programs. May Allah continue to bless your learning, strengthen your iman, and reward you for your dedication. Ameen.
I’ve really enjoyed my Arabic class. The lessons are clear and well-structured, which makes learning feel much less overwhelming. I appreciate how the teacher explains things patiently and always makes sure i understand before moving on. I’ve noticed real improvement in my reading and speaking, and it’s motivated me to keep learning. I’m grateful for such a supportive and effective learning experience.
The hifdh class has also been an amazing success for me . The lessons are calm, focused, and very motivating. My teacher is patient and corrects me gently, which makes memorizing easier and more encouraging.

Guided Training From Highly Qualified Ustazah, Sheikhs, Dr
Alhamdullilah. Being the student of Ulum Al-Azhar for almost a year has been amazing experience. Different teachers had been introduced for different stages of my learning journey. This concept is refreshing for my learning development. I must say the Ustazahs are highly qualified, knowledgeable and patience.
With the expansion of my Quran journey, the addition of Ramadan classes for Women Global Khatam and weekly Faith, Mind & Soul, have added so much knowledge FROM beginner who is just being aware TO the serious realization for strengthening my 'akidah'; the 20 Allah s.w.t. attributes. Sheikh Ahmed, Dr Goma and Ustazah Mona (I truly hoped, I got their names right), made it easy to understand without using bombastic Arabic & Sunnah's terminologies for ordinary people with little Islamic knowledge.
As for the Women Global Khatam, this provides me with the best exposure to reciting alongside with sisters internationally; be it the professional reciters or the beginners. No judgement from anyone but full of love, respect and understandings.
Aside from the coverage of recitation, the emphasis of tadabbur allows me to understand deeper on the importance of highlighted 'ayahs'. There were times when tears in my broken heart regretted for not doing this much earlier in my life. 'Our lives are truly linked with time. When it is gone it will never be rewinded. We will be the losing beings'. Surah Al-Asr.
I am truly grateful to Ulum Al-Azhar Academy for extending this amazing opportunities for me and perhaps to you as 'the chosen ones' to receive excellent Islamic spiritual trainings from highly qualified Ustazah, Dr, Sheikh et'al. Most importantly, at the comfort of our home. without having to spend additional time on preparations and commuting. There are no valid reasons for us to complain but to start opening our hearts and act. If your Islamic aspirations are never-ending with burning desires, this is the Academy I highly recommend. May everyone be blessed by Allah s.w.t. Amin Ya Robbal A'lamin.
PS: My 6 years old grandson signed-up for the weekly Kids Little Azhary Ramadan program. He immensely enjoyed the 2 lessons he attended, thus far. Alhamdullilah.
