Why did we choose these specific topics for our curriculum and our textbooks?
These specific topics were chosen based on our own research and experience in educating thousands of students across multiple schools over almost 3 decades. Among many things, we noticed:
Many of the youth are struggling with their faith and question it. Some are questioning the belief in Allah. They cannot love someone they don’t know well.
Many are looking for purpose in their life, looking for happiness and contentment from friends, things or social media influencers rather than turning to their faith.
Constantly following social trends without establishing criteria to distinguish right from wrong.
The daily practice and worship of Islam is seen as meaningless rules, regulations and rituals.
Lacking understanding of Islam and its role in important aspects of life. Such as, getting married and navigating marital relationships, managing money and developing good work ethics and skills.
Solution for Our Youth
We have developed these textbooks which help address some of our youth’s questions and understandings.
