Help Build the Future of Islam in a Country Where Muslims Are Less Than 0.4%

خَيْرُكُمْ مَنْ تَعَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ وَعَلَّمَهُ

“The best among you are those who learn and teach the Qur’an.”

Islamic Education in Korean

In the heart of Seoul, Muslim children are learning how to read the Qur’an, memorize Surahs, understand Hadith, and love the life of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

All of this is taught in the Korean language, so they can truly understand their faith, ask questions freely, and live as confident young Muslims in their own society. In a country where Muslims are less than 0.4% of the population, these children are not just students — they are the future of Islam in Korea.
