Activities
We remain committed to voluntarily teaching and supporting the learning of Arabic for a deeper understanding of the Quran. Our organization has not employed any paid staff, whether part-time or full-time. This approach has allowed us to minimize costs and concentrate our efforts on volunteers who deliver the courses.
Chapter: Educational Initiatives - Quran and Salah Courses
We prioritized delivering educational programs to enhance understanding of the Quran and Salah, benefiting participants from diverse backgrounds. Over the past year, we completed three courses of "Understand Quran and Salah," each with 19 lessons, tailored for accessibility and impact.
East London - Intensive Weekend Program The course was conducted over two weekends, offering in-person, interactive sessions ideal for busy professionals and students. This hands-on format effectively taught Quranic Arabic and the spiritual essence of Salah.
Swansea - Evening Sessions In Swansea, lessons spanned 10 evenings, offering a gradual, reflective learning experience. Held in a community setting, the sessions enriched participants' understanding and fostered communal bonds.
Zoom Online Classes The online format included two 1-hour weekly sessions over 10 weeks, enabling participants worldwide to join. Zoom's interactive features replicated in-person learning, offering flexibility and inclusivity for those with family or work commitments.
Impact and Feedback Participants across all formats reported significant improvements in Quranic Arabic, Salah, and faith connection. The structured curriculum, skilled instructors, and interactive methods ensured a transformative experience, with many requesting advanced courses.
