About Us
We Are Here Because Your Family Deserves Better
Finding authentic Shia Islamic education in a Western country is not easy. Most online Quran platforms teach a generalised curriculum that doesn't reflect the Twelver Shia tradition. Local Islamic schools are frequently too far, limit course choices, or simply aren't available in your area.
On top of that, finding a Shia Quran teacher who actually understands Fiqh Jaffari and the Ahlulbayt (AS) tradition in person is exceptionally difficult for Shia families living abroad. That is why Online Shia Quran Academy came into existence — to connect Shia Muslim families with authentic Islamic teaching for their children, no matter how far-flung their location.
What we do is straightforward: we link Shia students directly with skilled Shia Quran tutors via live, one-on-one video calls. Every lesson is conducted in real time, personally tailored to each student's age, level, and learning pace. No pre-recorded videos. No group classes of twenty students. Real Islamic learning happens through real human connection.
Our Difference
Why We Are Different From Other Online Quran Academies
This is the question every parent should ask before enrolling their child anywhere — and we're glad you're asking it.
Everything Here Is Authentically Shia
Our entire curriculum is built on the Fiqh Jaffari methodology and the teachings of the Ahlulbayt (AS). From the way Tajweed is taught to the Duas, Namaz, and Ziaraat included in our courses — nothing here is borrowed from a generic Islamic syllabus. If you are a Shia family, this was made for you.
Our Teachers Are Qualified and Carefully Selected
All tutors at Online Shia Quran Academy have formal qualifications in Quranic sciences and Shia Islamic studies. We don't just hire good reciters; we seek educators who know how to teach young students, explaining complex concepts in simple, age-appropriate ways.
Both Male and Female Tutors Available
Many families, particularly those with daughters, need female Shia Quran teachers. We have qualified female tutors available and always match students with a teacher their family is fully comfortable with.
We Work Around Your Life
Our students live in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and beyond. We schedule classes around school hours, work schedules, and family routines — mornings, evenings, or weekends — across all time zones. Your child's education should fit your life, not the other way around.
Our Teachers Speak English Fluently
Children growing up in Western countries think in English. Our tutors communicate clearly and comfortably in English, which means your child is never confused, never lost, and always engaged — whether learning Tajweed, Aqaid, or Fiqh Jaffari.

Student Reviews
Voices of Our Proud Students
Real experiences from Shia families across the UK, Canada, USA, and Europe — the words that matter most to us.
★★★★★
"We really do feel a sense of relief knowing that our son is grounded in his faith with knowledge and love… He is now aware of the Twelve Imams (A.S.) and replies to schoolmates confidently."
★★★★★
"What struck us the most is that he's proud to say he's Shia, not feeling shy or uncertain. The teacher is open to questions, and that's helped him construct clarity rather than confusion."
★★★★★
"Until then, I had done the tradition because my family did it, but at that moment I actually thought about why we do it. I no longer have an identity crisis. I am more steadfast in my faith."
A Note to Parents

"Every tutor on our team understands what's at stake. This isn't just about teaching — it's about keeping your family's identity, faith, and connection to Islam alive through the generations."
