Misc Notes

Muhtaram Ulama / Mu’allimaat
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu
May Allah Ta’ala bless us with aafiyat in dunya and Aakhirat.
Please take note of the following;

1. Aqaaid Grade 6

This year the Grade 6 learners will be studying a new Aqaaid Kitaab. Please note that pages 31-45 should be omitted. These sections have been included in the Grade 7 syllabus and learners will cover these sections in Grade 7 Insha Allah.

2. Surah Kahaf (The first ruku and the last ruku)

Presently, with so many fitnahs around us, we have been advised by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) to recite Surah Kahaf on Fridays. By reading the first ruku and the last ruku of this blessed Surah, Allah Ta’ala will protect us from all fitnahs. Even if Dajjaal has to appear, Allah Ta’ala will save us from the fitnah of Dajjaal. Those pupils in the higher grades who can recite Qur-aan Shareef should be made to recite these two rukus every Friday in the class. Insha Allah this practice will remain with them throughout their lives and will be a means of their protection in times of fitnah.

May Allah Ta’ala grant us the taufeeq to make amal. Aameen.
