Darul Quran Foundation

Join us for classes, events 🎉, and a journey of faith and knowledge 📚 Darul Quran is a traditional Islamic school located in Ballwin/St. Our school primarily functioned as a Quran memorization program where students memorized the text of the Quran. The program focused on Nazirah-reading with proper pronunciation and recitation techniques (Tajweed) and teaches basic Islamic knowledge. As of 2025, D

arul Quran Foundation offers more than just Full Time Hifdth. Including Full Time Hifdth with Homeschooling, Darul Quran also has Part Time Hifdth/After School Program, Weekend Classes, Brother's Only Class, Alimiyyah Program, Arabic Fluency Program, and our new Seerah Program. Students who study at Darul Quran Full Time are able to continue their academic studies through our homeschooling program so they do not miss any time in their school studies. Our other programs allow students to focus on their day to day lives while also putting time towards learning Quran and the Deen. We retain our strong commitment to serving our local Muslim community and propagate our rich Islamic Educational Heritage. Darul Quran has grown from a small gathering of Hifdth students to a structured and unique educational institute. Students have been drawn to this program from across North America and around the world, some permanently settling in the area. In 2007 the inaugural class of Darul Quran met in the Dar ul Islam Masjid in Ballwin, MO for Quran memorization. By the end of 2014, there were 35 Hufadth graduates. By the end of 2020, there was 86 Hufadth graduates. We currently have 108 total Hufadth graduates as of Summer 2025.

*Graduates and Growth*
The first 23 Hifdh students, young boys and girls, memorized the entire text of Quran in just 2 years. They were also able to manage studying their core academic subjects as well in the Home Schooling environment that was provided to them at Darul Quran. Many of the first batch of students went on to serve the community as Imams, teachers, doctors, and other areas of success. Many of the Hufadth who are now adults are pursuing advanced careers in science, engineering, medicine, etc. Darul Quran also has students who are received their Ijazat from Qualified Shuyukh in Mecca/Medina as well as having won International Competitions. The Muslims of this area are fortunate to have these Huffadhs available not only for Taraweeh Prayers in the month of Ramadhan, but anytime to act as substitute imams in any of the local Masajid. The students who graduated from Darul Quran returned to regular public and private schools after their completion of memorization and continued their education without missing any school year. We are committed to providing them the level of guidance and education that will help them to them succeed in homeschooling and in Hifdh to bring them continued success in this world and the next (Akhirah).
