Quran classes for kids in Fulton
Fulton sits between three counties' masjids, none of them close. From Maple Lawn, the easiest Quran class to reach is the one on your laptop.
First class free. Afterward, $100 a month and $75 for each brother or sister.

In the middle, close to none
Fulton is small, with 5,916 people at the 2020 census, and most of its growth has come with Maple Lawn, the planned community begun in the mid-2000s. We found no masjid or children's Quran program inside Fulton. The nearest Friday prayer meets at the North Laurel Community Center at 1:30, and the closest masjids, the Islamic Community Center of Laurel, Dar Al-Taqwa and MFC Gateway, are each about five to six miles away in a straight line.
Each of those centers runs good programs. ICCL's Thamarat Institute meets Monday to Thursday from 5 to 7, at $90 a month. Reaching any of them from Fulton, though, means MD-216 or US-29 at the busiest hour.
New buses, same problem
Since September 8, 2026, the Flash bus rapid transit line has stopped at Maple Lawn, linking Fulton to Burtonsville and Silver Spring. It helps commuters; it doesn't put a maktab any closer.
Online classes do. Two 30-minute sessions a week with one teacher, at home, at a time you choose, and a weekly note telling you exactly where your child is.
