First day of Madrasah….
Respected Asaatizah / Mu’allimaat
Assalaamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakaatuhu
Alhamdulillah, by the grace of Allah Ta’ala, today is the first day of Madrasah. Children will be coming back after a long holiday. Let us all plan ourselves properly so that we can get the maximum benefit out of this short term.
Firstly, let us correct our intention for coming to Madrasah. Our intention must be to teach the Deen of Allah Ta’ala to the Ummat only for the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala.
Please take note of the following guidelines;
- Ask the children how they spent their holidays and give them some advice where you find that they may have done something wrong.
- Do a proper revision of all Surahs, Duas and Hadith before commencing with new sabak in these subjects. Many children tend to forget their work during the holidays.
- Commence with Qaidah/Qur-aan sabak from the first day of Madrasah.
- Check the exam marksheet and see which areas we can improve on.
- Ensure we prepare our lessons well so as to gain maximum benefit from the little time we have. Please fill in our term planner and prep books and hand it over to the principal.
- Keep on encouraging them to pay attention to their studies and focus on what they have come to Madrasah for.
- Practicals and Sunnats: Focus on doing the Practicals and Sunnats with the students. Exams will be taken this term Insha Allah.
- Ta’limi Board Workshop: On Saturday 25 July is our Ta’limi Board workshop Insha Allah. Please attend and encourage others to also attend.
May Allah Ta’ala accept our broken efforts and make it a means of earning great rewards in dunya and Aakhirat.

Qurbani
The Ibaadat of Zul Hijjah
Thousands of Muslims all over the world will be celebrating Eid ul Adhaa by slaughtering animals in the name of Allah Ta’ala.
The days of Qurbaani are the 10th, 11th and 12th of Zul Hijjah.
The ibaadat of Qurbaani once again reminds us of the incident of Hadhrat Ibraaheem (alayhis salaam) and Hadhrat Ismaaeel (alayhis salaam).
The object of Qurbaani is to attain Taqwa (that is, we should be conscious of Allah Ta’ala all the time).
We should request our parents and grand-parents to also sacrifice an animal at home this qurbaani, so we can witness this great ibaadat.
Virtues of Qurbaani
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) has said: “There is no deed that is more beloved to Allah Ta’ala on Eid ul Adha than spilling the blood of an animal. (i.e. making Qurbaani). Verily the qurbaani animal will come on the day of Qiyaamah with it’s horns, hooves and it’s hair (to be weighed).”
Once, the Sahaabah (radiyallahu anhum) asked Nabi (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), “O Nabi of Allah, what is Qurbaani?” He replied, “It is the sunnah of your father Ibraaheem (alayhis salaam).” They then asked, “What benefit will we get from it?” He replied, “A reward for every hair of the sacrificed animal.” They then asked, “And what about an animal with wool?” Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam replied, “A reward for every fibre of wool.”
Once Nabi (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) told his beloved daughter Hadhrat Fatimah (radiyallahu anha), “Stand by your animal when it is being slaughtered, for verily all your past sins will be forgiven with (the fall of) the first drop of blood.
