Your Instructor: Shaykh Abdoulaye Sawadogo

Shaykh Abdoulaye Sawadogo is one of the foremost reciters of the Glorious Qur'an in the West, widely acclaimed for his impeccable articulation. He began his Islamic studies in his native Burkina Faso at age 8, before travelling to Tunisia to complete his memorisation of the Noble Qur'an.He spent over five intensive years in Syria, sitting at the feet of some of Damascus's foremost scholars. There, he received ijaza and a direct chain of transmission back to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in all ten styles of Qur'anic recitation Qira'at. Since moving to the UK in 2012, Shaykh Abdoulaye has been dedicated to disseminating this sacred knowledge.He is currently an Imam and teacher at Madni Masjid in Halifax.

Your Course Schedule

This course is built around one central promise: every student will receive direct, individual correction from Shaykh Abdoulaye.Here is how it works:

1.Group Teaching (All Students): The Shaykh introduces new concepts, demonstrates correct recitation, and explains Tajweed rules. Sisters may attend the main session or join a separate sisters-only stream for this portion.2.Individual Rotation (One-to-One):During the session, each student takes a turn to recite directly to Shaykh Abdoulaye.3.Personal Correction Based on Tajweed Rules: The Shaykh listens carefully, identifies specific errors related to:Makharij (Points of articulation)
Sifaat (Characteristics of letters)
Ahkam (Rules such as Noon Sakinah, Meem Sakinah, Madd, etc.) Waqf (Rules of stopping)
He then gives you clear, actionable feedback to improve your recitation.4. Volunteer Support: While waiting for your turn, you will be able to learn from the Shaykhs general guidance and recitation.5.Group Practice: While one student receives individual tuition, others continue reading, reviewing, or listening—benefiting from hearing corrections given to their fellow students.Why this matters:✅ You are not just watching videos – you are actively learning with personal feedback.
✅ Mistakes are corrected at the source – preventing bad habits from becoming ingrained.
✅ Learning is personalised – the Shaykh focuses on your specific challenges.
