One price, that's all you pay and you get everything you need to educate your child.

Sibling Course Option

There is no sibling course option for this program, as all of the materials in this program are reusable (non-consumable).

Purchasing the Program, Easy as 1-2-3!

If you would like to purchase this program for your child, please complete the following three step process. These steps will help you decide if the program meets your needs/expectations, insha-Allah. If after completing these steps, you decide you want to purchase the program, simply click on the "add to cart" button at the top of the page to place your order.

Step 1: Complete the Skills Assessment

Ad-Duha is dedicated to providing students with the Islamic Studies & Arabic level that is best for them. Therefore we have provided the following Skills Assessment (to be completed before ordering materials) to help you decide if this level of the curriculum is right for your child.

In order to get the most from this program, your child should have the following skills:

  • Can speak (form 2-3 word sentences) and can be understood by others.
  • Can express his needs, likes, and dislikes.
  • Can stay on task for 5-10 minutes or longer (for example when playing a game, cleaning up toys or looking at a book).
  • Shows an interest in school (asks to look at books, shows interest in his/her siblings schoolwork).
  • Takes care of his belongings (does not rip books or paper, does not scribble on walls, does not show a disregard for items in the house).

How to evaluate your child's performance:

  • If your child cannot complete all the items on this assessment, we recommend you wait 4-6 months and take the Skills Assessment at that time, before purchasing the program.
  • If your child can complete all items on the assessment, then he is ready for the Mini Mu'min Program.
  • If your child can do more than this assessment covers (for example already knows colors and shapes, can use a pencil/crayons, or has memorized one or more surahs) move on to Level ALP.

Important Notes

The Mini Mu'min program is not a daily curriculum like what is used in the regular Ad-Duha Program. The materials included in the Mini Mu'min Program are intended to be both educational and entertaining for very young children. The goal of this program is to introduce young children to some of the basic skill sets and information that they will study in the Level ALP Program, but in a more flexible format that suits children of this age range.

For example the Mini Mu'min materials present the information to be learned through stories, rhymes, games, activities, bright colors, interesting pictures, but without a writing requirement, worksheets, or grading that are used in Levels ALP and above. Children are simply expected to become familiar with the material and concept of 'school' so that their entrance into the next level of the program will go smoothly, insha-Allah.

Step 2: Preview the Program Materials
