Learn Quran Online in Turkey

What is the time difference between Turkey and Egypt?

Turkey (TRT) is only 1 hour ahead of Egypt year-round, since Turkey has kept a permanent UTC+3 time since abolishing seasonal clock changes in 2016, while Egypt holds a fixed UTC+2. An evening class at 6 PM in Istanbul is 5 PM in Egypt — an easy, convenient overlap for both sides.

My child already attends Kuran Kursu at our local mosque — can online classes help too?

Many Turkish families use our one-on-one sessions exactly this way: as focused, personalized practice alongside their child's regular mosque-based Kuran Kursu classes. The individual attention — pacing lessons to your child specifically, in a private setting — often accelerates progress that a group class alone cannot provide.

Do you work with Istanbul's international and refugee communities?

Yes. We regularly teach expatriate families, international students, and Arab families — including Syrian and other refugee households — living in Istanbul and across Turkey, many of whom prefer English-medium instruction alongside Arabic.

Are your certificates recognized internationally?

Our Ijazah certificates are globally recognized Islamic credentials, carrying an authenticated chain of narration (Sanad) back to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ — the same standard of certification respected by Islamic institutions worldwide, including in Turkey.

Alhamd Academy brings certified Al-Azhar Quran education to Turkey — home to one of the world's great centers of Islamic scholarship and, in Istanbul, a large international community of expatriates, students and refugee families. With just a 1-hour time difference from Egypt, families across Turkey enjoy effortless scheduling for private, one-on-one Quran, Arabic, and Islamic studies classes with native Egyptian teachers — a personalized complement to local mosque-based education, taught in English and Arabic.

Turkey's neighborhood mosques run excellent group Kuran Kursu classes, so families here aren't searching for access to Islamic education — they're searching for something a fixed-schedule group class can't offer: truly private, one-on-one instruction paced to one child, in English alongside Arabic, from a certified Al-Azhar teacher. Istanbul in particular is home to a large international Muslim community — expatriate families, international students, and Arab and refugee households from across the region — all looking for flexible, high-quality Quran education suited to an international, often English-first household.

Turkey is home to over 84 million Muslims, with Istanbul alone hosting one of the world's great centers of Islamic scholarship, alongside a large international community of expatriates, students and refugee families from across the Arab world.
