Our Mission

Tijan is a Qur’an School that started in 2017 at Noor Islamic Cultural Center (NICC) that is exclusively for women. Students are taught by qualified female teachers to recite the book of Allah in a proper manner and taught to prepare other women to be “pillars” of Quranic teaching in our community Inshaa’Allah!

All our teachers are highly qualified and most hold an ijaaza to teach tajweed.

In realization of our mission, many Tijan school graduates actively serve as teachers and volunteers in various NICC programs and and many others serve the Columbus community at large in various capacities.
