Online Quran classes in New Zealand give your child a qualified teacher of their own, live on Zoom, without a drive to the nearest masjid class. We teach families from Northland to Southland, starting with Noorani Qaida and moving on to Quran reading with Tajweed, Hifz and Islamic studies, which is included free with every Quran course.
New Zealand’s Muslim community is small and spread out, with families whose roots lie in Fiji, Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Somalia, the Arab world and beyond. Most live in Auckland, but many are in smaller centres with no regular Quran class nearby. Learning online means a family in Nelson or Invercargill gets the same teacher and the same lessons as one in Mount Roskill.
Children who grow up in New Zealand think in English, so most of our NZ students learn in English. Parents of Pakistani or Indian heritage can ask for Urdu, and Arabic is used with advanced students who want it.
The language only changes the explanations. The recitation itself is taught in Arabic from the start, with the tutor checking every letter and every Tajweed rule as your child reads.
Class times
New Zealand is 7 hours ahead of Pakistan during NZ Standard Time and 8 hours ahead once daylight saving starts in late September. That means an after-school lesson in New Zealand falls in our morning, on the same weekday.
4:00 pm in Auckland
= 9:00 am in Lahore
4:00 pm in Wellington
= 8:00 am in Lahore
7:00 pm in Christchurch

Tell us which days suit your family around school terms, sport and work. Classes run Monday to Friday, and when daylight saving starts or ends your lesson keeps its New Zealand time.
Why families choose us
For students in New Zealand the fee is US$30 a month. That covers 20 one-to-one classes of 30 minutes, Monday to Friday, and it starts only after three free trial classes.
Women and girls who would rather study with a woman can have a female tutor for every lesson, privately on Zoom and from the very first trial class.
Let us know when you book, or read about our female Quran teachers.
Parents can join the call, sit next to a younger child or listen from the next room. At any point you can ask the tutor what your child has covered and what to revise before the next class.
If your child and the tutor do not get on, we will arrange a new one. Read more about our online Quran tutors.
