I attend Ummahaatul Mu’mineen Institute and have been studying here for two years. The course I am studying is Part-time Hifdh. My highlight for studying with the institute is learning about tajweed. I would recommend the Institute and course to family as well as friends. While studying I have learned how to memorize the Qur’aan better. My aim while studying here is to recite the Qur’aan the way it was revealed to the prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم)

Summary: It’s the perfect setting for Qur’an students—very comfortable. There are online classes for past students who want to return or retry but cannot come. There are not too few or too many students to work with. The projects are exciting and the results are very nice from all divisions. My tajweed teacher has her ijaazah in Hafs, Shu’bah, and Warsh as well as other qiraa’aat. I memorized 10 surahs in 14 months, alHamdulillah! I feel like I have a good grip on: the meetings of letters noon, meem, and laam saakin rules natural madd (elongation) I’d recommend UMMI to anyone who is serious when it comes to studying this topic of tajweed.

I attended UMMI's first year last year. I was excited to join because I had been hoping for an opportunity like this for a few years. From the outset, I was pleased with the memorization schedule for the Part-Time Hifdh division. We had a three-day schedule: Friday-Sunday, with Fridays reserved for memorization and review only. This ensured I stayed on task throughout the week. I was also engaged by the tajweed curriculum, which gave me much more than I expected from a weekend class. I looked forward to lectures, knowing there was always more to learn. Classes did not end after the weekend; however. We were challenged to absorb the information and reflect it in many different ways via homework, forum activity, and projects, which helped prepare us for each test. I'm very grateful to have had the experience and to benefit even more this year, alHamdulillah.

I remember my first day at UMMI like it was yesterday. Me and 10 other girls walked in on our first day not knowing what to expect. As days went by we got more comfortable with the class and it started to be fun. Back then, UMMI used to be called QUEAGE (Quran Explorers Academy Girls Exclusive) and was not as intense as it is currently. If I could rate UMMI now I would say that it has improved since Day 1 because it allows more room for growth. UMMI is a great school and is a great place to learn if you're looking into memorizing all of the quran and learning very broadly about the tajweed rules. You'll get better at pronunciation, memorize stronger and faster, and get closer to your deen, beithnillah. I would 10/10 recommend UMMI to those new or already in Islam who want to start their Qur’aan journey.

The Part Time Hifdh is the division I'm in now alhamdulillah, but let me tell you at UMMI, you have NO choice you will be successful because the instructor are not going to allow you to move on until you get it. When I first started at UMMI I hadn't finished memorizing the last part of the Qur'an, but with the help of the teachers at UMMI I have now completed Juz Amma Alhamdulillah! UMMI is a wonderful and beneficial place and it has been one of many blessed environments that I have been in for learning. The instructors are very knowledgeable in the subjects that they teach. As a student I must say that this level of education isn't like anything I had ever studied before. However, although the studies are very intense, it's very rewarding also. Alhamdulillaah, I give the school 5/5 stars!
