About me

I memorized the Quran at just 9 years old. I have been studying the Quran and Islamic Sciences my whole life. It is my life’s work and passion. I am an Imam in Egypt, lead the daily prayers and deliver the khutbah every Friday. I have been teaching Quran, Arabic, and Islamic Studies online for over 5 years. I love working in my community as an Imam and I am passionate about teaching my students from all over the world. Teaching Quran is like becoming part of the student’s family, it’s something they will have with them for the rest of their life and I’m so proud I get to be part of that legacy.
