About QADARA Publications
Qur-Aanic Arabic Dissemination and Research Association
QADARA Publications exists to make the language of the Qur'aan accessible to every sincere seeker — through scholarly publications, Classical Arabic instruction, and community learning exchanges that honor the tradition of Islamic scholarship.
إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ
Innaa nahnu nazzalnaa adh-dhikra wa innaa lahu lahaafizuun
"Indeed, it is We who sent down the Reminder, and indeed, We will be its guardian."
Qur'aan 15:9Founder & Director
Imam Siddeeq Jihad
Imam Siddeeq Jihad has dedicated his life to the study and dissemination of Qur'aanic Arabic, believing that access to the language of divine revelation is a right and responsibility of every Muslim.
His journey began with a profound conviction: that the Qur'aan's transformative power is most fully realized when its words are understood in their original Arabic — not merely recited, but comprehended.
Over decades of study, teaching, and community service, Imam Siddeeq developed a unique pedagogical approach that makes Classical Arabic accessible to English-speaking Muslims at every level of prior knowledge.
Through QADARA Publications, he has produced instructional materials used by students and communities across North America, and continues to lead weekend Arabic learning exchanges by invitation.
These publications are unlike any other Arabic instruction materials available to the English-speaking Muslim community. They represent a lifetime of dedication to making the language of the Qur'aan accessible to all who seek it.

Community Service
Our work is a form of service to the Muslim community. We are motivated by the desire to see every Muslim able to engage directly with the words of Allah.
Scholarly Integrity
We submit our work to the scrutiny of qualified Islamic scholars and welcome their guidance, as the tradition of Islamic scholarship demands.
