Qualified Islamic Scholars
Every teacher holds a formal Alim or Alima qualification. All are Ijazah-certified β meaning their chain of Quranic transmission links back to the Prophet ο·Ί β and fully DBS-checked.
Small Classes β Real Attention
We keep groups small so teachers genuinely know every student. Your child is not a number β they are known by name, level and learning style from day one.
Progress Tracked & Reported
Termly progress reports, parents' evenings and regular updates keep you informed. We believe families should always know exactly how their child is progressing.
Safe, Welcoming Environment
Our madrasa is a calm, disciplined and inclusive space. Children thrive in a structured environment that respects their pace and nurtures confidence in Islamic learning.
Four ways to learn at Darul Yasin
Whether you need weekday maktab for your children, classes for yourself, weekend sessions or live online β we have a programme for every family.
Madrasa Classes for Kids
Our weekday maktab is the heart of what we do. Children aged 4 and above attend structured evening sessions Monday to Friday at our Beeston LS11 centre. They learn Arabic letters and sounds through the Noorani Qa'idah, progress to fluent Quran reading with Tajweed correction, memorise key surahs and daily duas, and develop a firm foundation in Islamic Studies, prayer and adab.
Our teachers are experienced in working with young learners β calm, patient and consistent, so children look forward to coming every day.
Adult Madrasa Classes
It is never too late to learn. Our adult madrasa classes welcome complete beginners as well as those who want to improve their Tajweed, increase their fluency or deepen their understanding of Islamic Studies. Sessions are respectful, private and patient β entirely free from the pressure that can make adults hesitant to start.
Evening and flexible slots are available for men and women. We also offer dedicated ladies-only classes with female Alima teachers.
Weekend Madrasa
Our weekend madrasah in Leeds is the ideal option for families with busy weekday schedules, children who attend Saturday sports or other activities, and students who want a lighter weekly commitment without sacrificing the quality of their Islamic education.
Saturday and Sunday morning sessions cover Quran, Tajweed, Islamic Studies and key memorisation β the same qualified teachers, the same structured approach, just on weekends.
Online Madrasa
Can't travel to our Beeston centre? Our online madrasa brings the same qualified Leeds-based teachers directly to your home via Zoom or Google Meet β for children, adults and ladies anywhere in the UK. Sessions are live, interactive and small-group: not recorded videos, not apps, but real teaching with real-time Tajweed correction.
Our online students progress at the same rate as in-person students. All you need is a device and an internet connection.

Families who chose Darul Yasin madrasa in Leeds
Real reviews from parents whose children learn with us β and adults who have studied here too.
I have two daughters who attend Madrasa Darul Yasin. Alhamdulillah the kids are settled and enjoying the Quran learning classes. Small class sizes, structured Islamic syllabus, qualified and trained staff. They track attendance and progress, hold parents' evenings and communicate well. The teaching is of high quality and my daughters are making steady progress. We have no issues recommending Madrasa Darul Yasin to other local parents.
Three of my children have already studied and moved on. Since joining Darul Yasin we have seen huge improvement in reading β staff are qualified and progress is excellent. They track attendance and behaviour, hold parents' evenings and give end-of-year reports. This is the best local madrasa in Beeston, South Leeds.
My son struggled at a previous madrasa but has settled beautifully here. The teacher took the time to understand how he learns. Within two terms his Quran reading improved beyond what I expected. I wish we had found Darul Yasin sooner.
I joined the adult evening classes as a complete beginner. The teacher was patient, knowledgeable and made me feel completely at ease. In six months I can now read the Quran β something I never thought I would achieve as an adult. Highly recommended.
