REPORT ON THE END OF THE YEAR AND AWARDS GIVING CELEBRATION

Alhamdulillah It was an eventful day, when Al-Mustafa Islamic Educational & Cultural Centre celebrated its annual end of the year and award giving ceremony.

This beautiful event took place on Sunday 18th December 2011.

The program started with one of the teachers, Sister Haswah Omar, mentioning the importance of acquiring sacred knowledge and inviting the Founder and Principal of Al-Mustafa IECC Sheikh Dr. Umar Al-Qadri to come on stage and deliver the welcome speech. The Sheikh welcomed the parents and the students and showed the audience a slideshow of the Centre from 2004. This was very inspiring indeed.

The Quran recitation competition then followed where students recited a Surah from the Holy Quran and its translation. The panel of judges that gave marks to each student consisted of Sheikh Al-Qadri, Sister Shahidah and Sister Manaal.

After the Quran recitation the students sang Nasheed and then some students played the drama on Islamic etiquettes.

Sidi Abdul Quadri then announced the Islamic quiz competition in which 8 boys contested against 8 girls. Sidi Quadri asked the questions to the 2 groups. This was very exciting and the feedback from parents was masha-Allah amazing. Many parents mentioned that they themselves did not know the answer to many questions in the Islamic Quiz. The girls group scored more marks and won the Quiz competition from the boys.

Sister Haswah then invited a Student, Nafeesat, to come on stage and deliver her speech. This 14-year-old student delivered a very inspiring and powerful speech on the Adaab of acquiring Sacred Knowledge.

Sidi Abdul Quadri then delivered a speech in Nigerian language.

The program progressed on with the announcement of the winners of the Quran competition and the announcements of the Students of the Year awards by Sister Haswah Omar.
