About us
Tanzil Centre (مركز تنزيل للقرآن وعلومه) is a registered charity in Leicester. We are building a Qur’an institute and a youth hub under one roof.
Our charitable objects, as registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, are:
In practice, that means two things. Qur’an Excellence teaches the Book of Allah properly, from a child’s first letters through Tajwīd and Ḥifẓ to Ijāzah and the ten Qirāʾāt. The Youth Hub gives young people a place to belong, with sport, mentoring, trips and tarbiyyah.
We serve children, young people and families in Leicester.
Our name comes from Sūrah ash-Shuʿarāʾ 26:192: وَإِنَّهُۥ لَتَنزِيلُ رَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ, “And indeed, it is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds.” Tanzīl means revelation. The Qur’an is the reason this centre exists.
The charity is run by a volunteer board of trustees. You can check our entry on the Charity Commission register.
