Our Ilm and Hifz departments were honoured to have Shaykh Mufti Tauqeer visiting us in the comfort of our school.
Shaykh Mufti Tauqeer is a remarkable fusion of spiritual insight and technological acumen. A Computer Engineering graduate from Ohio State University in America, he boasts over two decades of experience in global telecommunications giants across the USA and the Middle East. Beyond his professional journey, Shaykh Mufti Tauqeer holds a profound understanding of Islam with a post-graduation in Islamic Jurisprudence (Iftaa) and is authorised by prominent scholars such as Shaykh ul Hadith Maulana Taqiuddin Nadwi (UAE), Shaykh ul Islam Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani (Pakistan), and Shaykh ul Tafseer Maulana Sajjad Nomani (India) to teach major hadith books. His motivational speeches have reached audiences worldwide, from the Middle East to the USA, inspiring personal growth, and character refinement. As the founder of the Nur ul Ilm Academy, he pioneers a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, fostering the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
During his visit to Al Siraat, his talks addressed the minds of his young audience, motivating each individual student with his words of wisdom: The Shaykh first addressed our Primary Hifz students on the virtues of the Quran and the reward of being a Hafiz of the Quran. He then spoke to our Secondary Ilm students, emphasising on being thankful to Allah for the opportunity of learning knowledge & being grateful to the teachers as well as lowering one’s gaze for both male of females. He also stressed the importance for a student of knowledge to protects their eyes from seeing that which is haram.
Our students are grateful to Shaykh Tauqeer for visiting our College and look forward to meeting him again InShaAllah. May Allah grant us tawfeeq to practice upon what we learn. Ameen!
