Frequently ASked Questions
q. 1
HOW LONG WILL MY CHILD TAKE TO BECOME A HAFIZ?
THE HIFZ PROGRAM IS DESIGNED IN 2 COMPONENTS - 1) THE UNIQUE 10 MONTH INTENSIVE ARABIC AND 2) THE MEMORIZATION OF THE QURAN. THE EMPHASIS ON ARABIC STRATEGICALLY ALLOWS THE STUDENTS TO EXPEDITE THE MEMORIZATION PROCESS GIVING THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO COMPLETE THE ENTIRE PROGRAM IN 24 MONTHS. RESULTS MAY VARY.
Q. 2
HOW MUCH DOES THE ENTIRE PROGRAM COST?
THE INITIAL YEAR WILL COST $285/MONTH WITH A ONE TIME $25 ADMINISTRATION FEE. FEES CAN BE PAID IN FULL (5% DISCOUNT WILL APPLY), SEMI-ANNUALLY OR ON A MONTHLY BASIS. PAYMENTS WILL BE ACCEPTED BY E-MAIL TRANSFER OR IN CASH. FOR CHEQUE PAYMENTS A $10 ADMINISTRATION FEE MUST BE INCLUDED MADE PAYABLE TO: AL-QASIM CONSULTANCY.
Q. 3
HOW DOES THE ASSESSMENT PRIOR TO ADMISSION WORK?
STUDENTS WILL BE ASSESSED ON THE BASIC READING OF THE QURAN AND THEIR INDIVIDUAL KNOWLEDGE. THIS WILL BE CONDUCTED BY MUFTI ZEESHAN PRIOR TO ADMISSION INTO THE PROGRAM. STUDENTS WILL NEED TO HAVE A SOUND ABILITY TO RECITE QURAN PRIOR TO ENTRY. IN THE FUTURE THE ACADEMY HOPES TO CREATE A PROGRAM THAT WILL ASSIST FUTURE STUDENTS TO GAIN ENTRY INTO THE HIFZ PROGRAM (DETAILS TO FOLLOW).
Q. 4
WILL THERE BE A SISTER’S HIFZ PROGRAM?
AL-QASIM STRIVES TO BE AN INCLUSIVE ORGANIZATION AND WOULD LOVE TO HAVE SISTERS BE APART OF THE PROGRAM. THAT BEING SAID, THE INTENTION IS TO HAVE A SISTERS PROGRAM IN THE FOLLOWING YEAR. WE NEED TO ENSURE THAT LOGISTICALLY WE CAN PROVIDE ALL STUDENTS WITH THE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND ABILITY TO LEARN, WITHOUT COMPROMISING THEIR SUCCESS. WE ENSURE THAT WE ARE DOING EVERYTHING IN OUR POWER TO INTRODUCE THIS INITIATIVE. ITS WITH GREAT REGRET THAT WE WERE NOT ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THEM AT THIS TIME.
