December's Du`aa'
Prophet Ibrahim alayhi as-salam brilliantly asked Allah to help him and his offspring become establishers of Salah (in the form of an actual prayer or the establishment of continuous connection with Allah). The answer to his du`aa resulted in the coming of great prophets and messengers such as Ismael, Is-haq, Daoud, Ya`qoub, Yusuf, Musa, Issa, and prophet Mohammed peace be upon him.
رَبِّ اجْعَلْنِي مُقِيمَ الصَّلَاةِ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِي رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلْ دُعَاءِ
Rabbi ij`alnee muqeema assalati wamin dhurriyyatee rabbana wa taqabbal du`aa
"My Lord, make me an establisher of prayer, and [many] from my descendants. Our Lord, and accept my supplication."
رَبِّ اجْعَلْنِي مُقِيمَ الصَّلَاةِ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِي رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلْ دُعَاءِ
Rabbi ij`alnee muqeema assalati wamin dhurriyyatee rabbana wa taqabbal du`aa
"My Lord, make me an establisher of prayer, and [many] from my descendants. Our Lord, and accept my supplication."
December's Trait- Patience
We have been talking about 'Respect' during the month of November, and now are starting to talk about December's trait- Patience.Students will be reminded of the following verse:
"Allah surely loves those who are the Sabireen (patient)" (Al-Imran: 146)
Islamic Studies:
To integrate Islamic studies with the month's theme (patience), SK1 students learned about the story of Yunus (as) and the whale.
The students learned the following lessons from this story:
- the need for patience in all our affairs
- the reward for acknowledging our mistakes / weakness
- repenting for the wrong done
- constantly praising Allah and seeking Allah’s forgiveness (that can then help later in challenging situations.)
Art:
Since we always like to integrate what we learn in one subject to another. SK1 students made a nice craft about the story of prophet Yunus and the whale. Please check out our bulletin board! MashaAllah, way to go SK1!
Pajama Day!!
SK1 and SK2 had so much fun watching a movie together and eating popcorn. Thanks to teacher Nura for buying the popcorn for both classes. The students had a wonderful time hiding under the class tent and playing with their flash lights and stuffed toys!
Jazakumullahu-khaira for your co-operation and support!
