Alhamdulillah, the 2015 Quran Competition was a great success. The competition was held at Epping Memorial Hall and began at 5pm with Ustazh Amir acting as MC. We had our own judges from our skilled Quran staff: Sheikh Waseem, Ustazh Abdulrahman, Ustazh Ahmad, Ms Fauzia, Ms Maryam and Ms Nuha.
There were beautiful nasheeds from Ms Najma’s Foundation class, a group of Year 3 and 4 as well as our Hifz students. There was also a breathtaking recitation from Muhamed Hassan, a Hifz student and a speech on the virtues of Quran from Bilal Adnan, a senior SRC member. The competition coincided with the 9th of Muharram fast and so the event ended with everyone breaking their fast together after praying Salatul Maghrib in congregation.
Well done to all our contestants and congratulations to the winners! May Allah make it easy for our students to continue in their quest to perfect their reading and memorisation and may He reward everyone who has sacrificed their time and effort for His pleasure.
