For Shia Muslim families living across Canada — in Toronto, Mississauga, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, and Montreal — finding consistent, authentic Fiqah e Jafria Islamic education can be a real challenge. Local Shia centres do wonderful community work, but structured, one-on-one Quran and Ahkaam lessons for your children and family are not always available close to home.
Al Mehdi Online Quran Center was built to solve exactly this problem. Since 2012, we have provided online Shia Quran classes for kids and adults in Canada, connecting Shia families with qualified Ithna-Asheri teachers who teach Quran, Tajweed, and Fiqah e Jafria from the comfort of your home.
Why Canadian Shia Families Choose Al Mehdi
Authentic Shia Curriculum Every course at Al Mehdi is built on the teachings of Ahlulbayt (AS) and Fiqah e Jafria. This is not a general Islamic school that happens to have a few Shia students — it is a school designed exclusively for Ithna-Asheri Shia Muslims.
Qualified Male and Female Teachers We offer both male and female Shia Quran teachers. For sisters and daughters, our female instructors provide a respectful, comfortable, and effective learning environment. All teachers are fluent in English, Urdu, Arabic, and Persian.
Flexible Timing for Canadian Time Zones From EST (Ontario, Quebec) to PST (British Columbia) to MST (Alberta), our scheduling accommodates all Canadian time zones. Evening and weekend classes are available for school-going children and working adults.
One-on-One Classes via Zoom or Skype No group classes, no waiting. Your child or you receive the teacher’s complete attention every session, allowing faster progress and personalised feedback.
Our Three Core Courses
Basic Qaida with Tajweed — For absolute beginners, especially young children. Covers Arabic letters, proper pronunciation, and foundational Tajweed to prepare for Quranic reading.
Quran Reading with Tajweed — The main Quran recitation course, taken in two stages for systematic mastery of correct recitation rules. Students graduate from this course able to read the Holy Quran fluently and accurately.
Fiqah e Jafria: Namaz, Ahkaam & Wajibaats — The essential course for practising Shia Muslims. Covers all wajib acts of worship — prayers, fasting, Khums, Zakat, and other key religious rulings — according to the most widely followed Shia Maraje.
Shia Children Growing Up in Canada Need This
Shia children growing up in Canada face a unique challenge: they are navigating two worlds. They need to succeed in Canadian schools and society while also maintaining a strong, grounded Islamic identity. That identity is built — brick by brick — through Quranic recitation, understanding of Namaz, and knowledge of Fiqah e Jafria teachings.
Al Mehdi is not just a Quran class. It is a connection to the tradition of Imam Jafar as-Sadiq (AS), to the school of Ahlulbayt (AS), and to the global community of Shia Muslims that your child belongs to.
