“I just finished the first book of Madinah Arabic Reader with Ustadh Faris, and it went really well. He explained things clearly and made sure everything was easy to follow.”

“Last night around 2 AM, I grabbed my Arabic Qur'an and subhannallah with already what you have taught me I was able to read surah al Fatiha and a page of Surah al Baqarah, slowly but I got there in the end.”

“I really appreciate the lessons given by Ustadh, he explains very well and simply the concepts of tajweed, he helped me a lot to better my recitation and to strengthen my memorization.”

“Now when I read the Qur'an, I understand much more of it. Even when I read normal text, I find myself understanding so much better. Truly the best lessons I've ever had in Arabic.”

“After these lessons I have been able to finish Sūrah al-Kahf for the first time in my life. I was never able to get close to finishing it. And my relationship with the Qur'an has gotten way stronger.”

“My honest review about the lessons so far is that Zakariya has improved in his tajweed, Alhamdulillah.”

“I really think these classes are helping me learn Arabic properly. The teacher always asks if I'm understanding, and asks me questions which jog my memory on things I can't remember. Overall, his style of teaching is very beneficial for beginners trying to learn.”

“I feel more confident with reading now. I want to get to the point where I don't struggle at all, and with you, Alhamdulillah, I think I'll get there. So far, so good.”

“It's not only memorising or reading. The way we do it, we start with the explanation — the Tafsīr, the translation of the sūrah — and then we do it together. I really like that. For me, personally, understanding the meaning is the most important thing.”

“Alhamdulillah, I've already seen a lot of improvement on the letters and how to pronounce them, and with the tajweed rules too — my fluency in reciting has improved a lot. Just reciting more fluently, and correctly. Even working full-time, the flexibility makes it very easy. 100% I would recommend this — not just reading, but understanding the tajweed rules.”

“The lessons have been good. I'm definitely improving. I'd recommend this to the brothers out there.”

“The lessons are helpful, alhamdulillah. I can tell your tajweed is very good. I like to be corrected on the small things too, even the little details, and that's something I really appreciate.”

“The Qur'an lessons are very well designed. They're flexibly adapted to my schedule and other needs, which I really appreciate. You notice progress quickly, and the teacher is excellent and explains everything with patience and understanding.”

“I started learning Arabic with Ustadh Faris about two months ago, and all I can say is that my Arabic has improved very much. The lessons not only helped me to understand more, but now I can even form my own sentences. This is something I've never been able to do before, and I'm really grateful and proud of this.”

“Ich habe vor ca. zwei Monaten angefangen, bei Ustadh Faris Arabisch zu lernen, und ich kann nur sagen, dass sich mein Arabisch enorm verbessert hat. Der Unterricht hat mir nicht nur dabei geholfen, mehr zu verstehen, sondern ich kann nun sogar eigene Sätze bilden. Das ist etwas, was ich zuvor noch nie konnte, und ich bin sehr dankbar und stolz darauf.”

“Alhamdulillah very good lessons. A lot of teachers slow you down, trying to get more lessons out of you, but he goes through the concepts quickly if he knows you understand things. He is very patient and has very good knowledge of what he's teaching.”

“I have just finished Madinah Book 1 with Ustādh Faris, alhamdulillah. I found his teaching style to be very clear and easy to understand, and we were able to pace it according to how I was going.”

“This is my honest review, and Allah the Almighty is the witness. I recommend everyone, regardless of level and experience, to study with our beloved Ustadh Faris Sharif, whether enrolling in Qur'an or Arabic or both. His teaching is really good and very beneficial, and he always connects the Arabic words with the Qur'an and brings examples from the Qur'an. I can sincerely recommend him as a teacher who also holds firm to the way of the salaf. I'm currently halfway through the 4th Madinah book with him, and extremely looking forward to studying further grammar books and gaining more benefit from him.”

“Alhamdulillah, today I finished Madinah Arabic Reader Book 1 with Ustadh Faris. We managed to complete the book with the help of Allah, and we started this book on the 1st of December. I would like to thank Ustadh Faris for his efforts and would highly recommend him for Qur'an and Arabic language lessons.”

“I had no knowledge of any Arabic and this was a big barrier for me. I didn't know whether I should learn how to read, memorise Qur'an or learn tajweed. I felt overwhelmed with where to start, and for a very long time I was stuck. He broke down the plan step by step and made it easier for me. Fast forward a year, alhamdulillah I am able to read Arabic and pronounce letters better than before.”

“I definitely don't regret it. I've built a much deeper connection with the Qur'an since I started studying with Ustadh Faris. It's been a long time since I did as much revision as I do now.”

“I had an Arabic lesson with Ustadh Faris and it was a very good experience. He is very patient and explains everything clearly. Even when I made mistakes, he took the time to help me understand and improve. Because of his teaching, I can already start reading the Qur'an slowly.”

“I've received the Qur'an revision I needed and increased my consistency compared to before. The Arabic lessons are also very clear, and the Ustadh answers any of my questions in a very clear and concise manner. It also helps immensely to have a teacher who is a student of knowledge.”

“Thank you for your help. In sha Allah I will be fluent once again in my reading. Long way to go yet, but with the help of Allah we will get there.”

“I thank Allāh for allowing me to benefit from Ustādh Faris Sharif. I had class with him a little, but I benefited much, and his Instagram is very beneficial as well. If you want to learn the religion of Allāh, you need to learn Arabic, and I advise you with his classes.”

“Reliable Ustadh who teaches Qur'an. He replies to DMs directly. Very kind and good manners, especially great if you have a very basic understanding of Arabic, but suitable for all levels.”

“I'm finding it very useful. It's very good, extremely good and very clear. And I'm learning already a lot of new words.”

“Very beneficial, Ustādh. Having a teacher that's Salafi, alhamdulillah — it's a big difference. It's not always easy to find Salafi teachers for Qur'ān.”
