I am curious to know how many forum members would be interested in more LR lessons teaching al-Qai’dah al-Nooraneeyah based on the following edition:
http://store.dar-us-salam.com/product/MC81.html
[i]Noorani Qa’idah Book with 6 CDs
Master Reading the Qur’an with Correct Pronunciation
al-Qawa’id an-Nuraniyyah - Rapidly Master Accurate Pronunciation for Proper Recitation of the Qur’an!
Mastering the art of Qur’anic recitation and rules of Tajweed is no easy task for any Muslim, particularly if Arabic is not his or her native language. This well-known program, Noorani Qaidah, a staple of Tajweed students for over 20 years, has been proven immensely successful throughout the world due to its incredibly proven effective and comprehensive methodology. Numerous prominent Qaris (reciters of the Holy Qur’an) have used this program with great success. Millions more have taken the lessons and learned how to read the Qur’an quickly and thoroughly. The ease in which the Tajweed rules are taught makes this the ideal method for any Muslim to learn how to read and recite the Qur’an in record time. What’s more, you don’t need to know a word of Arabic in order to master this program, yet when you’re finished with it, you will be able to read and recite the Qur’an from cover to cover.
What will you learn? The most important thing you will take away from this Nurani Qaaidah program is a solid practical mastering of the rules of Tajweed, including makhaarij (the place the letter sounds exit from your mouth) that will enable you to read the Qur’an correctly on your own. In fact, many graduates of this program have been able to read the Qur’an correctly with precision and ease from cover to cover in six months or less. This program follows an easy gradient systematic system from beginner’s level to intermediate to advanced. It starts with Arabic alphabet and small connected letters and harakat, short vowel, long vowels, words, then sukoon, then shaddah, sentences from the Qur’an, application of Tajweed, then that which need to be observed for Hafs. Each of the eighteen lessons is designed for simplicity and ease of assimilation and takes one hour or less to complete without ever burdening the student.
Who will teach you? Your teacher will be Sheikh Mohammed ar-Ra’ee, whose grandfather Sheikh Noor wrote the book this program uses, an expert Qari and has taught Tajweed classes and recitation for over 20 years to students ranging from preschoolers to unviersity students and adults. He holds over five Ijaazahs (certifications) from Qaris with a chain of authentication dating back to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Some of his teachers include Sheikh Hudaify, Ibraheem Al-Akhdar, Mohammad Tamim Azu’bi (Madina), Fath Muhammad (east Asia), Syed Laacheen, - Abdurrasheed Ar-Ra’ee - Ahmad ahmad said, mohammad ahmed ma’bad, Abdurrahim Al-Ilmi The Student of Sheikh Ahmad Zayaat (of Egypt) include Sheikh Abdel Aziz Uyoon as-Sood through Sheikh Mohammed Tamim Azu’bi (Shaam). He has designed and participated as a judge in several Qur’an competitions for ISNA and GQMA (Global Qur’an Memorization Academy). Many of his former students rank in the top 10 in many international Qur’anic competitions held in such places such as Mecca, Medina and Dubai. One in particular, Sheikh Abdullah Awwaad Al-Juhany, is currently the Imaam at the Masjid Al-Haram in Makkah.
What will you get? - Nurani Qaeedah comes with one textbook with color coded text, lessons notes, summaries, exercises, Tajweed charts, and illustrations for Makhaarij for Tajweed Rules. All the Practice words and sentences used in the textbook are only from the Qur’an. - The Arabic script used in this textbook follows the Uthmani font as handwritten by the renowned calligrapher Uthman Taha who penned the Quran Mushaf al-Madina King Fahd Quranic complex - 5 Cd’s filled with eighteen lessons, practice surahs, and exercises; each is simple to understand, easy to complete, and gradually builds on previous lessons learned.
Who recommends this program? This program has been highly recommended by important figures in the field of Qur’anic studies. These include Sheikh Abdullah Basfar, the director of International Qur’an Memorization Association; Sheikh Dr. Ayman Assuaid, the renowned student of Uyoon as-Sood; Sheikh Dr. Lewis Faisal Bali, the former head of the Islamic Department in the Sauid Armed Forces; Shekih Abdel-Aziz Al-Hanafee, the director of Glorious Qur’an Memorization Association in Jeddah; Sheikh Dr. Ali Badahdah, the Imaam and Professor at the King Aziz University.

The Noorani Learning Center
http://nooranilearningcenter.blogspot.com/
This is the edition that I used to teach my children, with Sheikh Muhammad ar-Ra’ee’s permission, to convert the book and sounclips to the Doman method format and schedule in LR. We began when they were 2 years 4 months, and they completed the book at 4 years 1 month. You can see them here:
http://www.youtube.com/user/TheNooraniGirls
And with Sheikh ar-Ra’ee’s permission, please find below two free LR downloads, that some have already benefited from:
Noorani English Lesson 1 - LR category file
http://forum.brillkids.com/downloads/?sa=view;id=8321
Noorani English Lesson 1 Daily Playlists (5 sets of 5 cards for 10 days)
http://forum.brillkids.com/downloads/?sa=view;id=8322
The whole Noorani program converted to the Doman method format as LR categories and Doman schedule as LR playlists (with images and soundclips), would take ~ 18 months to complete; shown 2 - 3 times per day, for 5 - 15 minutes for each session; also being dependent on how quickly your child masters each lesson before moving on to the next.
(The reason it took us 1 year, 8 months, 9 days is because we experienced a computer crash and technical issues for 3 months in addition to another period of adjustment when they began their pre-school schedule.)
As of today, they are 4 years 3 months 2 weeks & 2 days old, and will complete learning the last two lines (from the Madinah mushaaf) of Surah al-Inshiqaaq, ayat 23 - 25, tomorrow, insha’Allah. And they are able to accurately sight read and recite with tajweed to the end of the mushaaf, masha’Allah, as can be seen in a few phone videos here:

They are also able to read children’s Arabic books, and they will complete an English phonics program that they learned one lesson per day, instead of the recommended 3 lessons per week [ http://www.eyeqadvantage.com/education/index.cfm?page_id=683 ] in the next few days, which I believe was made easier due to learning the phonics of the Arabic language first.
Thank you.
