We believe every Muslim deserves to understand the language of the Quran. Our mission is to make Arabic accessible to everyone — clearly, simply, and with barakah.
My name is Ustaz Umar Bashir Awan. I founded Miftah al-Barakah Institute with a single purpose — to be the key (مِفْتَاح) that unlocks the blessings of the Arabic language for Muslims around the world.
For over three years I have been teaching Arabic online to students across the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and beyond. My approach is built on simplicity: I teach entirely in English, break down every concept clearly, and tailor each session to your exact level and goals.
Arabic changed my life — I want it to change yours too.
We never overwhelm students with jargon. Every concept is introduced in plain English first, then connected to the Arabic — building confidence before complexity.
No two students are the same. Every lesson plan is built around your current level, your goals, and the pace that feels right for you — never rushed, never stagnant.
We begin every session with the name of Allah. Learning Arabic is an act of worship — and we approach it with the intention of drawing closer to Him through His language.
Engaging, structured lessons for young learners starting their Arabic and Quranic journey.
Clear, practical sessions for adults who always wanted to learn but never knew where to start.
Add Arabic to your professional skill set — valuable for business, travel, and career growth.
Muslims who want to move beyond recitation and truly understand what they are reading.
You know absolutely nothing — perfect. We start from the very first letter together.
