D.I.U's Memorable Quranic Achievement and Engaging Programs in August 2023

Campbelltown, N.S.W - September 4, 2023 August was a month of remarkable milestones and enriching programs at Daar Ibn Umar (D.I.U), the Islamic educational centre nestled in Campbelltown, New South Wales. Among the highlights of the month was a significant accomplishment that resonates deeply with the centre's mission of nurturing spiritual growth and education: the completion of the memorization of the Quran by one of its dedicated students. Our greatest achievement this month was the culmination of a student's journey in memorizing the Quran, an accomplishment that fills our hearts with gratitude. This remarkable feat stands as a testament to the dedication of our students, the unwavering support of their parents, and the profound commitment of our teachers. The entire community at D.I.U celebrates this momentous achievement, recognizing that it is a collective endeavour in the path of Deen (faith). Throughout August, D.I.U had the privilege of hosting a distinguished lineup of visiting scholars, fostering intellectual and spiritual growth within its community. Sydney was graced by the presence of renowned scholars including Sheikh Muhammad Ibn Adam Al-Kawthari, Sheikh Muhammad Yaseer Al-Hanafi, Sheikh Faisal Manjoo, Mufti Tauqeer, and others. Although we were not able to host them all at D.I.U, their profound wisdom and insights were shared with a global audience through the centre's broadcast channel, which can be accessed at (https://daar-ibn-umar.mixlr.com). A key event in the centre's monthly calendar is the youth night, which saw a full house in August. Qari Hassan Kazi, the Imam of Rockdale Masjid, engaged the young audience with his interactive talk on "The Effects of Good and Bad Friends." Following the talk, a live Q&A session run through the SLIDO app provided the youth with an anonymous platform to ask questions on their minds. The evening continued with Kahoot games, prizes, and concluded with a delightful sausage sizzle and dessert. Another standout event was the monthly Community Lecture, featuring International Guest Speaker Mufti Tauqeer Chaudhary, who delivered an informative talk on "Muslims in the West." Attendees actively participated in a Q&A session before enjoying a delectable dinner. The month wrapped up with the "Parents and Students Program" on a Friday evening. Commencing with lessons from the Seerah (biography of Prophet Muhammad), the program concluded with a discussion on the importance of punctuality and participation in D.I.U's array of programs designed to foster spiritual and personal growth, followed by a pizza feast. The new month kicked off on a blessed note with the arrival of a delegation from "Madrasah An-Noor for the Blind." D.I.U hosted the Jamaat of Ulamaa and elders from this special delegation, further solidifying the centre's commitment to inclusivity and community outreach. For a more detailed account of this meaningful visit, please read the dedicated article available on D.I.U's website. As September unfolds, Daar Ibn Umar eagerly anticipates an array of exciting and engaging programs, promising another month of spiritual enrichment and community connection. The centre continues to be a beacon of learning, unity, and spiritual growth in the heart of Campbelltown, N.S.W.

Madrassa An-Noor Delegates

🕌 Invitation to Welcome Visiting Delegation from Madrassa An-Noor 🕌 Assalamu Alaikum dear community members, We are excited to extend a warm invitation to you for a remarkable event that will highlight the transformative efforts of Madrassa An-Noor, an institution dedicated to providing comprehensive Islamic education for the blind and visually impaired in South Africa. Summary of Madrassa An-Noor's Efforts: Madrassa An-Noor, founded in 1986, recognized the lack of resources for blind students' Islamic education in South Africa. The Madrassa's journey began humbly with a single student learning the basics. Overcoming challenges like limited resources, it gradually expanded its offerings. The Madrassa introduced an Aalim course tailored to the blind, evolving into a Center of Higher Education. Their impact extended globally through Outreach programs, conducting Qur’ânic Braille workshops in various countries, empowering Ulemâ and Qur’ân teachers to better serve the blind community. Date: Sunday, September 3rd, 2023 Time: After Maghrib Salaah (6:00 PM) Venue: Daar Ibn Umar, Level 2/116 Queen St Campbelltown Introduction of Delegates: 🔸 Shaykh Hashan Murshie - Founder & Director of Madrasa An-Noor for the Blind: South Africa Learn about his vision, struggles, achievements, and the significant advancements he has spearheaded for the blind and visually impaired individuals in terms of Islamic and secular education, strategic leadership, and social services in the challenging field of higher Islamic education. 🔸 Qari Islaah Busakorn - Blind Qari & Imam: Thailand Discover his inspiring journey as a blind Qari and Imam who has not only mastered the recitation of the Qur'an and memorization but has also been a source of motivation for others. His efforts in promoting Quranic and memorization activities within the blind community, including the recitation of Qira’at Sab’ah, Sab’ah Hafs, and other famous books of hadith, have been remarkable. Program Highlights: - Engaging Talk on Madrassa An-Noor's Journey - Interaction with the Visiting Delegation - Food will be served after Isha prayers - Separate arrangements for men and women 📅 Date: Sunday, September 3rd, 2023 🕕 Time: After Maghrib Salaah (6:00 PM) 🕌 Venue: Daar Ibn Umar, Level 2/116 Queen St Campbelltown Kindly register your attendance at (https://diu.themasjidapp.net/events) to ensure a comfortable arrangement for all participants and facilitate future programs.

Pick and Drop Procedures: We would like to kindly remind parents and guardians about our 'Pick and Drop' procedures, which will continue to be in place this term. To ensure the smooth flow of traffic around the madrasah premises, we kindly request that you park in the rear car park and accompany your children to their respective classrooms. Additionally, please make sure to promptly collect your children at the designated pick-up time. Ensuring the safety of our students is of utmost importance, and we want to avoid any risks associated with unsupervised students in areas with traffic. Please note that there will be no supervision for students left after class for more than 15 minutes from the end of class. Attendance: We would like to emphasize the importance of regular attendance for all students at Daar Ibn Umar. Unless your child has a medical certificate stating an ongoing medical condition or is currently unwell, we expect their presence at madrasah. If you require leave for your child, kindly request and receive approval from the Madrasah administration. Frequent unexplained absences may result in the removal of the student's name from the roll. Equipment: A friendly reminder for all students to bring their own stationery supplies, such as pens and pencils, to madrasah. Please ensure that your child is well-equipped for their classes. If you need to purchase any books, they are available for purchase at the Madrasah Office. Additionally, if you haven't already done so, we strongly encourage you to install the Madrasah App on your mobile device. This term onwards, all correspondence will be through the App. Please send us the GUID code for your child to ensure that you receive all necessary updates and information. Communicating with the Madrasah: I would like to highlight the importance of effective communication between parents and the Madrasah. We encourage you to continue utilizing email or the Madrasah App for any communication regarding your child's education or any other inquiries.

Monthly Student and Parent Program

Daar Ibn Umar Monthly Student and Parent Program Announcement Assalamu Alaikum, We are delighted to announce the upcoming edition of our monthly student and parent program at Daar Ibn Umar. This event serves as an opportunity for our community to come together, celebrate the pursuit of knowledge, and strengthen the bond between parents, students, and educators. Date: Friday 7th July 2023 Time: 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm Venue: Daar Ibn Umar Level 2/116 Queen St Campbelltown 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

Therefore, we kindly request that you plan your family vacations or other commitments in a way that allows students to attend all Madrasah days. Following the regular school holidays, classes will resume on Tuesday, the 18th of July. It is crucial for students to be prepared for the upcoming exams, which will commence after the holidays. We urge them to use their time wisely during the break to review and revise their lessons, ensuring they are well-prepared for their examinations. In sha Allah, with their dedication and hard work, they will achieve success. JazakumAllah Khair for your continued support and cooperation in your child's education. We greatly appreciate your commitment to their academic and spiritual growth. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our doors are always open, and we are here to assist you in any way we can. Once again, we wish you and your family a happy and blessed Eid.

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.

Student of the Month

A Sahabi (may Allah be pleased with him) once approached Rasulullah (peace be upon him) seeking guidance on achieving success. Among the various advice given, Rasulullah (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of finding contentment within our homes. According to Allah's words, the home of an individual is meant to provide tranquility and peace. Recognizing that the home of a believer serves as a sanctuary, it is essential to establish certain rules and regulations within our households. Without a proper system in place, chaos may prevail. We are delighted to inform you that our regular talks for Parents and Students of the Madrasah have resumed. These talks will be held on the last Friday of each month, starting at 5:00 PM to 7:00PM. The program will consist of games, Q&A, student awards and recognitions. Followed by a brief inspiring talk. Additionally, refreshments will be provided after the session, before Ishaa, for those in attendance. The program will resume from this Friday the 2nd of June, at 5pm. Due to unforeseen circumstances, last week's program was postponed by one week. However, going forward, it will continue as scheduled, by the grace of Allah. The primary focus of these talks is to explore how we can apply the teachings from Madrasah in our everyday lives beyond the Madrasah premises. Moreover, it is an opportunity for students to socialize and for parents to acquaint themselves with one another. Thank you for your continued support and participation. We look forward to seeing you at the upcoming talk.

Term 2 Begins

Nabi Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) has said: “Soon the world will become subdued to you and young people will come to you who will be thirsty for knowledge. They will desire to attain a deep understanding of Deen, (Tafaqquh). When they do come, teach them with kindness. Be tolerant with them and teach them the Ahaadith.” There is not the slightest amount of doubt that the existence of the Makaatib which imparts Islamic education in this day and age is such a great favour of Allah upon the Muslims that no favour greater than it can be envisaged. Just as food is our physical source of nourishment, so too is Ilm (knowledge) our spiritual source of nourishment. Our spiritual life is solely dependent on Ilm. One great benefit of acquiring knowledge of Deen is that Allah Ta’aala becomes pleased with the one doing so. Punctuality in class and on lessons is extremely important for any student. Students should never miss their lessons. By missing lessons, one is deprived of barakah (blessing). Most of the time one is deprived of Ilm as a result of this indifference and disrespect. It is recorded in the biography of Imam Abu Yusuf that he remained in the service of Imam Abu Haneefa for a lengthy period. In that time not a day passed where he did not accompany Imam Abu Haneefa for Fajr Salaah. Immediately after Fajr, Imam Abu Haneefa would commence the lessons. Ibnul Jawzi used to say that in order to attend his lessons, he would run so much that he would become breathless due to excessive running (so he would not be late). Imam Sa'lab says that for fifty years continuously he remained in the Majlis (gatherings) of Ibraheem Harbi and was never absent. Hadrat Yahya, the student of Imam Malik and narrator of the Mua'tta, was studying in Madinah Munawwarah by Imam Malik. One day there was an announcement that an elephant had come into the town. An elephant is a very strange animal to the Arabs. The students heard this announcement and immediately left the lessons and ran out. Yahya remained seated peacefully. Imam Malik asked him: "There are no elephants in the country that you live in. Why do you not also go to see it?" Yahya replied: "I left my home in Andalus to meet you and learn from you. I did not leave my home town to see elephants." Imam Malik was very pleased when he heard this reply, and gave him the title; The Sage of Andalus. Today, unfortunately, we have become increasingly nonchalant and indifferent when it comes to our madrasah classes. We seem to lack the same values and respect for our teachers, their time, and the classes they teach that were present in previous generations, as demonstrated by the examples given earlier. Interestingly, if our employees were as consistently tardy in our businesses, negatively impacting our income, we would not tolerate it. So why do we allow this lack of commitment in our religious and spiritual development? As a friendly reminder, classes at the Madrasah will resume this week. We kindly request all parents and students to arrive a few minutes early with all necessary books and equipment.
