Kitaab Academy

Kitaab Academy began during the lockdowns, when a group of friends from UC Berkeley started meeting online with a unified goal: to learn Arabic and connect more deeply with the Qur'an. What began as a casual Zoom gathering quickly started to grow, as people from across the nation reached out, eager to join the online classes.

Our mission is simple yet profound: to make sacred knowledge accessible, relevant, and transformative. We aim to reconnect hearts with the Qur'an, revive a love for the Arabic language, and elevate the community's connection to their faith.

In addition to our classes, we regularly host community events that bring people together around learning, reflection, and spiritual growth—making Islamic education a shared, lived experience.
