Islamic studies is its own lesson; Quran reading is taught separately, usually three or four times a week alongside. Virtual Quran Center runs both, often with the same teacher. A child learning to read Al-Fatihah in one lesson and its meaning in another understands why the reading matters. Both sit on one account with one invoice, and the same teacher can take both where the family prefers it. See the Quran for Kids Course
