About Thanaal
Thanaal is an online madrasa for Gulf expatriate families. We teach the Quran, Tajweed, Hifz and Islamic studies in live classes led by experienced, qualified teachers, so children can receive a religious education from wherever they live.
Our priority
Our motto is Madrasa Education, Our Priority. Families who live in the Gulf often find it hard to give their children a proper madrasa education: schedules are tight, distances are long and the right teacher may not be nearby. We started Thanaal so that families can now ensure their children's religious education from anywhere.
Thanaal brings caring guidance and consistent Islamic learning into your home. Our focus is to help children grow in knowledge, confidence and good character.
