About

Assalamu'alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu. Noor Academy Sunday School is one of the distinguished weekend educational institutions of Masjid Noor. Established in 2006, we conducted hybrid classes during the pandemic in 2020 and, Alhamdulillah, resumed full-time in-person courses beginning in 2022.

We offer Islamic Studies (including akhlaq, fiqh, aqeedah, dua, hadeeth, and salah), Quranic memorization, and Arabic reading and writing across our AM and PM sessions.

Vision

To be a center of applied Islamic knowledge for the youth of the Ohio Muslim community.

Mission

Our mission is to empower Ohio's Muslim youth through authentic Islamic education. We aspire for them to not only live as devoted Muslims but also to grasp the profound wisdom of Islam and cultivate a sincere desire to embrace it — becoming active contributors to society who strengthen the faith, unity, and future of our ummah.

Classes

Islamic Studies

Students are placed by age and public-school grade level. The focus is age-appropriate awareness of Islam, faith in Allah, the five pillars, Muslim manners and morals, and how to live day-to-day as a Muslim.

Quranic Reading

Students learn Arabic letter recognition, proper makharij, vocabulary, numbers, and foundational grammar. By the end of the course, students should be able to read Qur'an with correct pronunciation using the rules of tajweed.

Quranic Study

Students are evaluated on memorization, beginning with short surahs such as Al-Fatihah, An-Nas, Al-Falaq, Al-Ikhlas, and Al-Masad for younger learners. After Juz Amma, students continue to Juz Tabarak and beyond, with basic tafsir alongside memorization.
