Theme: Seeking Knowledge - A Path to Enlightenment

As believers, we are reminded of the profound importance of seeking knowledge in the Quran when Allah says, "Say, 'Are those who know equal to those who do not know?'" This verse underscores the invaluable nature of knowledge and its transformative power in our lives.

Prophetic Hadith: "Seeking knowledge is a duty upon every Muslim."

In line with the teachings of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), we emphasize the duty upon every Muslim to seek knowledge. It is through this pursuit that we enlighten our minds, strengthen our faith, and navigate the complexities of the world around us.

Saying of Abu Darda: "Be a scholar, a student, a listener, or a lover of knowledge, but don't be the fifth (i.e. an ignorant) or you'll be destroyed."

Abu Darda, a companion of the Prophet (peace be upon him), wisely advised us to embrace knowledge in any form. Whether we become scholars, students, listeners, or simply lovers of knowledge, our path lies in continuous learning and growth. Let us avoid the peril of ignorance by immersing ourselves in the pursuit of knowledge.

Program Highlights:

1. Enlightening Talks: Our esteemed speakers will deliver inspiring talks on the significance of seeking knowledge, drawing wisdom from the teachings of the Quran, the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and the advice of renowned scholars.

2. Interactive Discussions: Engage in lively discussions that explore ways to strengthen the partnership between parents, students, and our madrasah. We will delve into strategies to enhance parental involvement in education and the role of the community in nurturing the growth of our students.

3. Showcase of Student Achievements: Witness the talents and accomplishments of our bright young minds as we celebrate their achievements in various areas, such as Quranic recitation, memorization, Islamic studies, and academic excellence.

4. Educational Games and Activities: We believe in learning through fun and interactive experiences. Students will have the opportunity to participate in educational games and activities that reinforce the subjects covered in the madrasah curriculum. Let's make learning an enjoyable adventure for our children!

5. Ishaa Prayers and Community Meal: Following the program, we will perform Ishaa prayers together. After prayers, a delicious meal will be served, providing an opportunity for families to connect, share a meal, and foster a sense of unity and togetherness.

Join us this Friday at Daar Ibn Umar to be part of this enlightening and engaging program. Your presence is essential as we work together to empower our students, strengthen our community, and nurture a love for knowledge. Let us heed the wise words of Abu Darda, "Be a scholar, a student, a listener, or a lover of knowledge, but don't be the fifth or you'll be destroyed."

Please mark your calendars and spread the word among fellow parents, students, and community members. Together, let's embark on a journey of enlightenment and growth.

Jazakum Allahu Khairan.

Sincerely,
Daar Ibn Umar Admin

Madrasah Sport

In recent years, the significance of Madrasah sport programs has garnered increased attention within our Madrasah. While Qur'an Memorisation forms the core of our educational program, Madrasah sport plays a pivotal role in shaping well-rounded individuals. Beyond the physical benefits, Madrasah sport fosters character development, teamwork, discipline, and invaluable life skills that contribute to success both inside and outside the Madrasah. We should not underestimate the profound importance of Madrasah sport and its positive impact on students' overall growth and well-being. Our program aims to create positive, educative, and unforgettable experiences through Madrasah sport. We believe that these experiences go beyond the classroom and contribute to the holistic development of our students. Through a diverse range of sports, our students have had the opportunity to engage in swimming, jujitsu, soccer, badminton, and multi-sport activities. These activities provide a mix of team and individual sports, allowing students to explore their interests and talents. To ensure a high-quality sporting experience, our Madrasah sport activities are delivered by dedicated teachers and qualified officials. These professionals bring their expertise to the sports field, providing guidance, instruction, and a safe environment for our students. Their presence ensures that our students receive proper training, learn the necessary skills, and engage in fair competition. Engaging in sport activities at our Madrasah provides students with a platform to maintain physical fitness and develop healthy habits. Through swimming, jujitsu, soccer, badminton, and multi-sport activities, students enhance their cardiovascular health, build strong bones and muscles, and reduce the risk of obesity. By encouraging physical exercise, Madrasah sport helps students establish healthy routines that can extend into adulthood, promoting lifelong well-being. Madrasah sport also focuses on character development. Through both individual and team-based activities, students learn the value of discipline, perseverance, resilience, and goal-setting. These qualities translate into various aspects of life, empowering students to overcome challenges and strive for excellence. By setting goals, working towards them, and experiencing both victory and defeat, students develop crucial life skills that shape their personalities and enhance their overall growth. One of the most valuable aspects of Madrasah sport is the emphasis on teamwork and collaboration. By participating in team sports like soccer and engaging in multi-sport activities, students learn the importance of working together towards a common goal. They foster cooperation, trust, and effective communication skills. Students rely on their teammates, appreciate diverse perspectives, and understand the significance of their individual roles within a collective effort. These team dynamics extend beyond the sports field, preparing students for future collaborations in academic, professional, and personal endeavors. Participating in Madrasah sport requires discipline and time management skills. Student-athletes must balance their academic responsibilities with their training and competition schedules. This delicate juggling act teaches them the value of prioritization, effective time allocation, and self-discipline. The ability to manage time efficiently not only contributes to academic success but also prepares students for the challenges of adult life, where balancing responsibilities is a critical skill. Madrasah sport also provides an excellent avenue for social interaction and the development of emotional intelligence. Through sport activities, students build friendships, learn to respect differences, and handle both victory and defeat gracefully. The camaraderie and sense of belonging cultivated through sport foster self-confidence and self-esteem. Furthermore, students gain resilience and learn to manage their emotions effectively in high-pressure situations, which helps them navigate various social and personal challenges throughout their lives. Engaging in sport together fosters a sense of unity within our Madrasah community. Sporting events, matches, and competitions provide opportunities for students, teachers, parents, and the entire Madrasah to come together and support our student-athletes. The shared experiences and sense of belonging promote unity, creating a positive and inclusive environment that enhances the overall educational experience. The importance of Madrasah sport extends far beyond physical fitness and athletic achievements. It serves as a powerful vehicle for character development, teamwork, discipline, and social and emotional growth. By participating in sport, students learn essential life skills that contribute to their success in all areas of life. Madrasah sport should be nurtured and encouraged, as it plays a vital role in shaping well-rounded, positive, and proactive Muslims who are equipped to face the challenges of the future with confidence and resilience. Through Madrasah sport, we create positive educative and unforgettable experiences that contribute to the holistic development of our students.
