Hifz Teachers
ḤĀFIẒ SYED ABDUS SAMAD QUADRI
For the past 40 plus years I have been teaching the Holy Quran. Starting shortly after completing Hifz myself, I started teaching at the age 13 and continued to teach all throughout my college years. Once I moved to the Chicagoland area, I started teaching at ICN in Naperville and Masjid al Huda in Schaumburg.
Alhumdulilah after 20 plus years of living here, I am still blessed enough to be able to teach our youth and elders alike about the importance of our Deen and most importantly the Holy Quran. Throughout the years I have made many connections and helped out many Islamic centers such as ICCD and the UzBek American Association of Chicago. I have also been a Jummah Khateeb at ICC of Chicago for the past 20 years.
