Arabi Method
Five Pillars of the Arabi Method in Quran Recitation
In Pontianak, Arabi's ustadz and ustadzah teach Quran Recitation with the Arabi method arranged in gradual steps, so your child in areas such as Benua Melayu, Sungai Bangkong, or Tanjung Hulu learns at a comfortable and directed pace, from the basics to lasting levels. How Arabi establishes correct reading from the very first page.
01
Talqin
The teacher pronounces the letters and verses with the correct makhraj, the student listens then imitates, so the right sound takes root from the very first example.
02
Musyafahah
The student watches the movement of the teacher's lips and tongue while pronouncing the letters, then imitates it. This keeps the pronunciation accurate, especially for difficult letters.
03
Talaqqi
The student reads before the teacher who listens directly. The moment there is a slip, the reading is corrected at once, then repeated until the pronunciation is right and sticks.
04
Guarding the Makhraj
Each letter is trained from its exit point, namely the throat cavity, the throat, the tongue, the two lips, and the nasal cavity. Letters with close sounds are trained separately.
05
Munaqasyah
Before moving up a level, the student is tested with new material and assessed on fluency, speed, accuracy, and correctness of makhraj. They advance after passing.

Stories from Students and Companions
4.9From 34 parent reviews
My child now reads iqra with confidence because the ustadzah patiently listens to each one. Every week there is a report that lets me see the progress.
I started from recognizing the letters at the age of 40 and never felt awkward because I was guided privately. Now I have begun reading verse fragments with tajweed.
The online class over video call turned out to be comfortable. The teacher displays a digital mushaf and still listens to my reading directly, and the schedule is flexible in the evening.

FAQ
Questions About Learning Quran Recitation at Arabi
My child only knows a few hijaiyah letters, which level do they start from?
The first session opens with a friendly reading assessment, the teacher listens to the letters the child already knows. From there the right level is set, usually Arabi 1 or Arabi 2. The child continues from the right page, repeating as needed and stepping into new material once the basics are solid.
What are talqin, musyafahah, and talaqqi that the Arabi Method uses?
Talqin is when the teacher pronounces a letter or verse correctly then the student imitates it. Musyafahah is when the student watches the movement of the teacher's lips and tongue while pronouncing then imitates it. Talaqqi is when the student reads then is heard and corrected by the teacher directly. These three ways keep the makhraj and tajweed correct from the start, since every slip in reading is caught and corrected on the spot.
What is munaqasyah and why does it matter for moving up a level?
Munaqasyah is the level advancement exam using new material that has not been practiced before, to assess the fluency, speed, accuracy, and correctness of the makhraj in the student's reading. The student moves up after passing, so the reading foundation is tested before stepping into the next level and every stage is passed in full.
I am already an adult and still stumble when reading the Quran, can I still learn?
Very much so, and you can learn with an easy heart. Many adult students at Arabi begin from recognizing the hijaiyah letters and grow until they read the mushaf. The ustadz and ustadzah guide with patience, a pace that adjusts, and private one-on-one lessons, so you learn comfortably and at ease.
My elderly parent wishes to read the Quran fluently, can they be guided?
Yes, and this is among what Arabi often serves. The teacher adjusts the pace, the mushaf text size, and the session length to the condition of the elder. The reading is heard one-on-one with patience, the makhraj corrected gently, so they can improve their reading and add fluency at any age with calm.
My child often confuses letters that sound similar, what is the solution?
Hijaiyah letters whose makhraj is close, such as sin and syin or ha and kha, do call for separate practice. The Arabi Method provides special practice for telling apart similar letters in each group, and each letter is trained from its correct exit point while being heard directly, so the student grows used to telling their sounds apart accurately.
How long does it usually take for a student to read the Quran fluently?
Every student is different, shaped by their starting point and how steadily they practice. With six sequential levels and reading that is heard privately at every meeting, many students show encouraging progress within a few months. The teacher regularly shares the student's progress so you can follow it step by step.
Can the recitation lessons be taken online?
Yes. Through video call, Arabi's online sessions bring a digital mushaf seen together on the screen.
