EDUCATION
Maktab Theme - Seerah
This Month, our students worked very hard and looked closely at the life of the Prophet s.a.w.
They researched what were the first words and Ayahs of the Quran to be revealed. They also made maps outlining the journey of the Hijrah.
They concluded the month by making Seerah timelines for the main stages of the life of the Prophet s.a.w.
Homeschoolers - All about Ibadah
This month, our Homeschooling club learned all about the various types of Ibadah
After watching a play, the children got creative and practised their own plays, outlining that Ibadah is not only restricted to our daily Salah e.t.c
They also got creative and made some ‘Ibadah clouds’.
Afterwards, everyone enjoyed some more fun and games.
Muslimah Youth Club Pearls - Having fun the Halal way
This month in Pearls, we focused on all the ways of having fun and enjoying ourselves whilst differentiating between what is Halal or Haraam.
The girls looked at the western concept and Islamic concept of entertainment and the goals and ins and outs of both.
They also looked at some common forms of entertainment today and if they would be considered appropriate in light of Islamic teachings, whilst looking at the numerous ways we can enjoy ourselves within boundaries.
Afterwards the girls had fun playing various games and working as a team to meet their challenges.
Muslimah Options - Medical & Dental School
A great initiative with the first session of Muslimah Options focused on the medical field.
Our great volunteers gave insight into the ins and outs of Medical and Dental school and the pathways to navigate them.
May Allah s.w.t reward them for their efforts.
