The chapters in the textbooks are designed specifically for the learning needs of each grade level. There is no need for teachers to tone down a lesson or otherwise alter it in order to make it relevant to the class.

The textbooks are designed to help teachers deliver their lessons in a structured, resourceful and easy to teach manner. Lesson plans and annotated notes in the Teacher's Editions making teaching easy and rewarding even for volunteer teachers without any formal teaching experience.

Each chapter in the textbooks include homework questions to reinforce student's learnings.

Additional resources including tests, question banks and more are included in the Student Workbooks and Teacher's Editions.

All lessons in the textbooks are presented in distinct units and arranged thematically. The lessons begin with the introduction of the basic tenets of Islam assuming no prior knowledge and build towards more advanced topics including application of Islamic principles in daily life.
