How to Use HifzIQ Pro

Everything you need to know — whether you’re a student beginning your Hifz journey, a parent watching over your child, or a school ready to transform how you teach.

إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ

Indeed, it is We who sent down the Quran and indeed, We will be its guardian. — Al-Hijr 15:9

Why HifzIQ Is Unlike Any Other Tool

There are many Quran apps. HifzIQ is built for one purpose — not recitation, not translation, not tafsir. Purely and completely for Hifz. Here is what makes it different.

🧠

Built on Forgetting Science

HifzIQ uses the SM-2 spaced repetition algorithm — the same method used by medical students to memorise thousands of facts. It calculates exactly when your brain is about to forget an ayah, and brings it back just in time. You review less, retain more.

🎧

Listen First, Then Recite

Every review session follows the correct cognitive order: listen to authentic recitation, then recite from memory, then grade yourself honestly. This 3-phase method is not a gimmick — it activates phonological memory pathways the brain uses for long-term retention.

🏛

Memory Palace for Hard Ayahs

For ayahs that just won’t stick, HifzIQ includes a built-in Memory Palace — the same method used by world memory champions. Attach a vivid, personal location-based image to any ayah and your brain locks it in permanently.

📊

Progress That Tells the Truth

Four clear stages: New → Sabaq → Sabqi → Manzil. You always know exactly where every single ayah stands. Not just “I know this surah” — but which specific ayahs are solid and which ones need work.

👩‍🏫

Teacher + Student in One System

Teachers assign Sabaq with due dates, monitor every student’s progress, and get alerts when multiple students are struggling with the same ayah. No more guessing what to teach next session. The data shows you.

👨‍👩‍👧

Parents See Real Progress

Parents get their own read-only portal — streaks, session history, weak ayahs, Manzil count. No more “how did class go today?” and getting a one-word answer. Parents can support revision at home when they can actually see what needs work.

🔒

No App to Download

HifzIQ works entirely in the browser — desktop, tablet, or phone. No app store, no updates to install, no storage to worry about. Open madrasatuna.com, log in, and you’re reviewing within seconds.

🎓

Certificates That Mean Something

When a student reaches Manzil on a surah, they can generate a beautiful printable certificate — with their name, their teacher’s name, the surahs completed, and their streak. Something real to celebrate and share.

Your Step-by-Step Guide

Choose who you are — and get your complete personalised guide below.

Dear sister (or brother), if you’ve been struggling to keep your Hifz strong — if you memorise something and it slips away within weeks — that is not your fault. That is the forgetting curve. Your brain was never designed to hold information reviewed randomly. HifzIQ fixes this. It gives your memorisation a scientific schedule. You review the right ayah at the right time, every single time. MashaAllah, let’s begin.

1

Create Your Account

Go to the Register page. If your teacher gave you an invite link, use that — you’ll be automatically linked to your teacher and your account is completely free. If you’re joining independently, select “Student” and start your 3-month free trial. No credit card needed.

✓ Invited by teacher = register free, no payment ever
2

Go to Browse and Enrol Your Surahs

Click the Browse tab. You’ll see all 114 surahs. Click any surah to open it and see its ayahs. You can enrol the entire surah at once (click “+ Enrol All”) or add individual ayahs one by one. Start with what you’re currently memorising — don’t try to add everything at once.

💡 Start with your current Sabaq. Add older surahs gradually.
3

Do Your Daily Review Session

Click Review. The system shows you exactly which ayahs are due today — nothing more, nothing less. For each ayah: Step 1 — Listen to the recitation (with auto-repeat). Step 2 — Recite it from memory (the text is hidden). Step 3 — Reveal and grade yourself: Perfect, Hard, or Forgot. Be honest. The system only works when you’re truthful with yourself.

✓ Perfect = more days until next review  |  Forgot = back tomorrow
4

Use the Memory Palace for Stubborn Ayahs

Some ayahs just won’t stick — similar sounds, long sentences, easily confused with the next ayah. Go to the Palace tab, find that ayah, and write a vivid memory anchor. For example: imagine you’re standing at your front door (a familiar location) and you see something wild and memorable that sounds like the beginning of that ayah. Your brain will latch onto it.

💡 The stranger and more vivid the image, the better it works.
5

Check Your Stats and Streak

Click Stats to see your full progress — how many ayahs are at each stage, your session history, and which ayahs need the most attention. Your streak (the 🔥 number in the top right) shows how many consecutive days you’ve reviewed. Even one ayah a day keeps the streak alive. Consistency beats intensity every time.

✓ Aim for a daily review — even 5 minutes is enough
6

Complete Your Assignments

If you have a teacher, check the Assigned tab. Your teacher may have set specific Sabaq for you with a due date. Complete these alongside your regular reviews. When you finish a teacher-assigned ayah range in your review session, it shows as done on their dashboard too.

7

Generate Your Certificate When You’re Ready

Click the Certificate tab at any time to generate a beautiful printable Hifz certificate — showing your name, your teacher’s name, all your Manzil surahs, and your streak. Print it, frame it, or share it with your family. You earned it. 🎓

✓ Share it — let the people you love celebrate with you
A note from Ustadha Fahmina: Sister, the most important thing is not how fast you go — it is that you don’t leave. Log in every day, even for just a few minutes. Five minutes of honest review is worth more than two hours done randomly. The algorithm is doing the hard work of scheduling for you. Your only job is to show up. 🤍

As a parent, you are not a passive observer in your child’s Hifz journey. The research is clear — students whose parents are actively aware of their progress memorise faster, retain longer, and give up less often. HifzIQ gives you real visibility into what’s happening — so you can encourage the right things at the right time, without having to ask the teacher every week.

1

Create a Parent Account

Go to the Parent Register page and create a free WordPress account. This is separate from your child’s student account. Once registered, inform your child’s teacher — they will link your account to your child’s profile from their admin panel. You’ll receive an email confirmation when the link is made.

💡 Parent accounts are always free — no subscription needed
2

Log In and Open the Parent Dashboard

Once your account is linked, log in and go to the Parent Dashboard page. You’ll see your child’s name, their current teacher, and a complete snapshot of their Hifz progress. If you have more than one child using HifzIQ, each child appears as a separate card.

3

Understand the Progress Numbers

Four numbers matter most: Enrolled (total ayahs in the system), Manzil (fully retained — celebrate these!), Sabaq (currently being memorised), and Needs Work (ayahs with errors). A healthy Hifz has the Manzil number growing steadily over time.

✓ Manzil growing = excellent. Needs Work staying high = ask the teacher.
4

Check the Streak — Every Day

The 🔥 streak shows how many consecutive days your child has reviewed. This is the single most predictive number — children who maintain a streak retain far more than those who review in bursts. If the streak drops to zero, gently ask your child to review today, even for just 5 minutes. Keep the chain unbroken.

💡 Don’t say “have you done your Quran?” — say “what’s your streak today?”
5

Review the “Needs Work” Ayahs

The parent dashboard shows specific ayahs your child has struggled with (2 or more errors). These are the ones to ask about at home. You don’t need to test your child yourself — just acknowledge them: “I see Ayah 7 of Al-Baqarah is tricky right now — how’s it going?” The awareness alone makes children more likely to focus on weak spots.

6

Read the Session History

The last 7 sessions show as a simple bar — green means most ayahs were perfect, orange means mixed, red means a hard session. A few red sessions followed by green is completely normal — that’s the learning curve. Consistent orange or red over many sessions is a signal to talk to the teacher.

✓ Ups and downs are normal. Only persistent red needs attention.
What you can do at home: The most powerful thing a parent can do is listen. Ask your child to recite their current Sabaq to you — you don’t need to know Arabic to do this. Just listening, nodding, and saying MashaAllah tells them their memorisation matters to you. That alone improves retention. 🤍

Running a Quran school means managing multiple teachers, dozens or hundreds of students, different progress levels, and anxious parents — all at once. HifzIQ gives your institution a single system for all of it. No more notebooks lost when a teacher leaves. No more parents asking “where is my child?” and getting a vague answer. No more guessing which ayahs need extra teaching time. Everything is tracked, structured, and accessible.

1

Choose Your Plan

HifzIQ offers two ways for schools to use the platform:

Option A — Use Madrasatuna: Your teachers and students create accounts directly on madrasatuna.com. Choose a school plan (25, 75, or 150 seats) based on your student count. No technical setup required.

Option B — Your Own WordPress Site: Purchase a School Plan, receive a license key, and install the HifzIQ School Plugin on your own WordPress site. Your students see your school’s logo, brand colour, and domain — fully white-labelled.

💡 Not sure? Start with Option A — you can migrate to your own site later.
2

Register Your School

Go to the Register page and select Quran School. Enter your school name and complete the form. Your account will be activated by the Madrasatuna team within 24 hours. You’ll receive your subscription confirmation and, if you chose Option B, your license key and plugin download link by email.

3

Create Your Teacher Accounts

Once your school account is active, go to your admin panel and use Add Student to create accounts for each of your teachers — select the “Teacher” role. Each teacher gets their own login, their own student list, and their own invite link to share with students.

✓ Teachers can also self-register using your school’s registration page
4

Create Classes and Assign Students

Go to 🎓 Classes in your admin panel. Create a class (e.g. “Morning Girls Hifz,” “Weekend Junior Class”) and assign a teacher to it. Then add students to each class. Once a student is in a class, they are automatically linked to that class’s teacher — the teacher can see their progress, assign Sabaq, and monitor weak ayahs.

💡 You can move students between classes at any time.
5

Share Invite Links With Students

Go to Invite Links. Each teacher has a unique shareable link. When a student registers via that link, they are automatically linked to the teacher — no manual linking needed. Share these links via WhatsApp, email, or your school’s parent group. Students under a school plan register completely free.

✓ Students pay nothing — all access is covered by your school plan
6

Monitor the Whole School

As school admin, your All Students panel shows every student across all teachers — their streak, enrolled ayahs, Manzil count, and subscription status. Your teachers see only their own class. Use the 🏫 School Licenses section to manage your subscription, renew seats, and update your white-label branding (if applicable).

7

Link Parents to Student Accounts

Go to 👨‍👩‍👧 Parents. Once a parent creates a WordPress account on your site, you can link them to their child in one click. They then have read-only access to their child’s dashboard — progress, streak, session history, and weak ayahs. This replaces the need for teachers to send individual progress updates.

✓ Reduces “how is my child doing?” messages to teachers significantly
8

Use the Weak Ayah Alert System

Teachers should check the ⚠️ Weak Ayahs tab before each class session. This shows the specific ayahs where two or more students in their class are making repeated errors. Instead of teaching what feels relevant, teachers now teach what the data shows is actually needed. This makes every session more efficient.

💡 This feature is unique to HifzIQ — no other Quran tool does this at teacher level.
For school administrators: The biggest shift HifzIQ brings is that student progress now belongs to your institution, not to individual teachers. When a teacher leaves, every student’s full Hifz history stays in the system — the next teacher picks up exactly where the previous one left off. This alone eliminates one of the most painful problems in Quran school management.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? These are the ones we hear most often.

No. HifzIQ works entirely in your web browser — on any device. Open madrasatuna.com on your phone, tablet, or desktop, log in, and you’re reviewing within seconds. Nothing to install, no storage needed, no updates to manage.
No — not a single rupee, dollar, or pound. If you registered using your teacher’s invite link, your access is completely free and is covered by your teacher’s subscription. You get the full student dashboard, all 114 surahs, spaced repetition, Memory Palace, analytics, and certificates — at no cost to you.
Three full months — automatically activated the moment you register. No credit card required to start. After three months, students continue for $5/month and Starter Teachers for $19/month (covering up to 3 students). You’ll receive reminder emails before the trial ends so you’re never caught off guard.
Your data is always safe. Every card, every Memory Palace note, every session — all safely stored. When your subscription lapses, you can’t access the dashboard, but the moment you renew, everything is exactly where you left it. Nothing is ever deleted due to expiry.
No. Memory Palace notes are private to the student only. Parents can see progress statistics, streak, session history, and which ayahs need work — but cannot read any personal notes or memory anchors the student has written. Students can write freely without worrying about privacy.
Go to Browse, open the surah, and click “+ Enrol All.” Then in your first review session, grade all those ayahs as “Perfect.” The system will space them out far apart — you’ll only be asked to review them occasionally to keep them at Manzil level. This is called “maintenance mode” and it keeps your existing Hifz solid without eating up your daily review time.
Yes. Schools with over 150 students can contact us for a custom plan at info@madrasatuna.com. We’ll put together a tailored package including onboarding assistance, custom seat count, priority support, and (if needed) a fully white-labelled installation on your school’s own domain.
HifzIQ works well for students aged 10 and above who can read independently. For younger children (6–9), the parent or teacher typically sits with them for review sessions, listening as the child recites aloud and grading on their behalf. Many families use it this way very successfully — the spaced repetition benefits apply at any age.
Email us at info@madrasatuna.com — JazakAllahu khayr for reaching out. We typically respond within 24 hours, InShaAllah. For urgent technical issues during your subscription, mention “HifzIQ Support” in the subject line.
