Online Qur'an classes in Kashmir
Learn from home, anywhere in the Valley, with a teacher from the Valley.
Deeniyat Online School is based in Kashmir. Families across the Valley — in Srinagar, Anantnag, Baramulla, Sopore, Pulwama, Budgam, Kupwara, Ganderbal, Shopian, Kulgam, Bandipora and beyond — learn the Qur'an, Tajweed and Qur'anic Arabic with Mohammad Shafi Mir in live online classes, with lessons in Kashmiri, Urdu, Hindi or English.
A teacher from the Valley
Mohammad Shafi Mir studied Arabic at the University of Kashmir, where he was a gold medalist, and has been teaching for more than twenty-five years. He explains lessons in Kashmiri as well as Urdu, Hindi and English, so that children and elders alike can learn in the language they know best. See learning the Qur'an in Kashmiri.
Through every season
Reaching a class is not always easy — in the long winter, on busy school days, or when the nearest teacher is far away. Online classes allow a child to keep learning from home, at the same time each day, whatever the weather.
Across the Valley, and beyond it
Students join from every district, and from Jammu, the rest of India, and Kashmiri families living abroad who want their children to keep their connection with the Qur'an.

Which languages are the lessons taught in?
Lessons are explained in Urdu, Kashmiri, Hindi or English, so each student can learn in the language they understand best. The Qur'an itself is, of course, read in Arabic.
When are the classes held?
Classes are held daily, with morning and evening times, so that they can fit around school, college and work. Let us know what suits you and we will find a suitable class.

Classes are kept small, so that every student can read aloud and be corrected in every class. Students learn alongside others of a similar age and level.
What is needed to join?
A phone, tablet or computer with a steady internet connection, and a quiet place to sit. Earphones help. We will send the class link before the first class.
Is the first class free?
Yes. The first class is free of charge. It is a chance to meet the teacher, read together, and find the right place to begin. You can arrange it on WhatsApp or by phone.
