WIS Surah Competition by Nabiha Yusuf

WIS conducted its annual Surah Competition on February 18, 2018. The students were judged on their memorization and tajweed. Our Quran group leader Sr. Rameeza had introduced changes in our Quran curriculum in the past few years to incorporate tajweed. It was a learning curve for our students, but as a result, several of our students have now been able to recite with proper tajweed.

Our well-trained Quran teachers, Sr. Fatimatu and Mariam Jalloh (Grade I), Sr. Khadra Abubakar (Grade II-1), Sr. Jishan Zaman (Grade II-2), Sr. Nora Oukajji (Grade III-1), Sr. Rameeza and Sr. Safa Hasan (Grade III-2), Sr. Islam Jaber (Grade IV), and Br. Mohammad Jalloh (Grade V) have made great effort to make this possible. Please join me in congratulating them for their effort!

We would like to extend our thanks to our judges, Sr. Ruba Chahine and Sr. Shireen Elbaz (Grades I-1 and I-2), Sr. Abeer Ashouri and Sr. Mirvet (Grade II-1 and II-2), Sr. Ghadeer Bilbeisi and Br. Mevlut Bulut (Grades III-1 and III-2), and Sr. Rana Eloubeidi and Br. Ali Mubarak (Grades IV and V).

Special thanks to our chief guest, Br. Ahmad Hussain for presiding over the event, and offering special words of encouragement to our students.

Last but not the least, thank all our teachers and support staff who helped our judges and Quran teachers to make this possible.
