Ustadh Fahd Yasin is a Quranic Arabic instructor at Fawakih Institute, most recently Levels 1A, 1B, and 2A. He also serves as the Student Support Specialist and Deputy Kajabi Experience Manager at Fawakih.
Ustadh Fahd has been studying Arabic for the past eight years at various institutes, including Modern Standard Arabic at Madina Institute, Quranic Arabic rhetoric (balaghah) at Fawakih Institute, Modern Standard Arabic at Middlebury Institute, Classical/Quranic Arabic at Qasid Institute in Amman, Jordan, and further Classical Arabic studies via scholars in Jordan and Egypt.

He has also received an ijazah (official license) in teaching the Ajrumiyyah (الآجَرُومِيَّة) grammatical text from Dr. Laher, senior faculty member at Fawakih. He also received an ijazah in Tajwid and Qur’anic recitation of Hafs ‘an ‘Asim (رِوَايَةُ حَفْصٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ), and teaches Tajwid to students, including in Level 1C, which houses Fawakih’s Tajwid curriculum.
Ustadh Fahd continues to study Quranic and Classical Arabic with his own teachers, specifically in the text إِحْيَاءُ عُلُومِ الدِّينِ (“Revival of the Sciences of Religion”), authored by the renowned classical scholar Imam Al Ghazali رَحِمَهُ الله; the exposition of the Mutammimah Al-Ajrumiyyah (مُتَمِّمَةُ الآجَرُومِيَّة), an advanced classical grammatical text, and further specialization in the Science of Tajwid and Quranic Recitation. Quranic and Classical Arabic has become the most fruitful endeavor of his life, and he is passionate about teaching the language of the Quran to all of his students and everyone he meets!

"Fawakih delivers as advertised. This is an effective online Arabic grammar and vocabulary program. Our teacher (Fahd Yasin)'s dedication to student success and patience are outstanding. Daily review (15+ minutes) are ideal for memorizing new vocabulary and come prepared for class. I would argue that a minimum of 30 minutes per day is required to have fun and avoid struggling in class or with the quizzes."

"Ustadh Fahd is a very knowledgable and devoted teacher, masha'Allah. He was well prepared and thorough in his explanations. He was very dedicated, even when only 1-2 students appeared for class, and responsive to questions. We were privileged to have him as an instructor, alhamdulillah."

"Ustadh Fahd is extremely passionate and is an excellent teacher. He has personally helped me in so many ways and I really hope I can continue with him at every level. Fawakih has been the best resource in learning Arabic. I tried 3 other textbooks and curriculums, failed to learn overseas as well. Fawakih is definitely been the smoothest and easiest to grasp and understand."

"This class has been an amazing experience and Ustadh Fahd is one of the best teachers I’ve ever had. He is so patient and explains the topics so well and never hesitates to repeat or remind us when we forget concepts. I hope I can continue taking classes under him throughout the program! I think the program is a great investment in understanding the Quran and improving your Arabic knowledge overall and I am excited to continue the journey insha’Allah!"

"I most appreciate the opportunity to transfer from the regular paced 1A to the gradual pace. My instructors in both courses were excellent but the gradual pace was much less stressful and more conducive to my learning style. Ustadh Fahd is very patient and corrects errors kindly and gives many useful ways to understand the material. Though the material is very challenging and can be overwhelming, our instructor and fellow classmates are encouraging and supportive. I hope to have Ustadh Fahd as an instructor for as much of the curriculum as possible. He has a warm personality and great teaching style. I am beginning to feel more capable of eventually understanding Quran and growing as a Muslim, In Shaa Allah."

"I absolutely loved this program. It was so well organized (book, quizzes, pacing, etc.) and Ust. Fahd Yasin was an amazing instructor who really took the time to explain and ensure his students understood the material. I happily recommend Fawakih to all my friends and family members as the best Quranic Arabic program I’ve seen. I’ve learned so much in just a few months and am excited to continue the journey insha’Allah."

"I am really happy with Tajwid class. Ustad Fahd explanation is so good. This class is a eye opener for me about Tajwid - I am so happy for what I have achieved is a short time."
Muhammad Rashid A., on 1/9/24
"I can't express my satisfaction and happiness for the blessing of Fawakih, it has opened a new world for me and I feel a new and deeper connection to Quran, and this added Tajwid class helped me establish a special bond to each Arabic letter, before they were just letters and now each letter has an existence and concept and physical form. Jazakullahi Khayr for Ustad Fahd Yasin."

"Books, class recordings, answer keys, and on top of that, the prompt help of coach Ustadh Fahd Yasin is wonderful. It all is greatly assisting me in reviewing the Level 1 & 2 materials prior to starting level 3A on June 4, 2023 in Sha Allah."

"Alhamdulillah, completing 1A before Ramadhan has been a great blessing this year for me. I understand Quran so much more than before and it helps me to connect with Quran during my personal recitation and to attain khushu' during Tarawih. I am not going to lie, it was hard to learn new language, especially Arabic with its complexity, while working and being a parent, but Allah made it easy with a very patient and proactive teacher like Ustaadh Fahd Yasin who went above and beyond in supporting us, MashaAllah. May Allah rewards him and the rest of Fawakih team! This is my second time of trying to finish 1A, and the main reason I can finish this time around is because of my current teacher, Ustaadh Fahd Yasin. Him reaching out, supporting students who were fall behind (because so many things happened in life), with sabr, and him NEVER minimize our questions no matter how small or repetitive they may be, was unmatched. May Allah protect and reward him!"
