Rowaa, learns Quran

Rowaa, you are finding your voice! Being one of the

younger children at An-Nur often means you don’t
need to speak for yourself as the other children tend
to do it for you! But today when you sat with the
Quran recite on Rosy’s tablet, I could clearly hearing
you sounding out the words.
Rowaa, I have seen you praying on a mat in hijab a
lot at An-Nur, you see your parents pray 5x every-
day! You are always keen for your turn and you
know exactly what to do! Know you are beginning to
learn to recite the Quran. You may not have all the
words down yet but you followed along with the first
and last words and you knew the rhythm of the
verse and hummed along. I love that through this
experience you are able to speak for yourself and
soon I know that you will be speaking in all areas of
your life. You are getting braver and trusting more
everyday!
Rowaa, you are growing as a Muslim. Our philoso-
phy states that we “teach our children Arabic lan-
guage to enable them to read, understand and
therefore implement the words of Allah (Quran)”
You have made a start with this aspiration Rowaa.
Your personal learning goal is a sense of belonging
at An-Nur, participating in familiar recitation and
prayer allows you to build a strong sense of belong-
ing here. I love that you are finding your voice and I
will be encouraging you to speak up as often as pos-
sible in English & Arabic to continue to grow your
confidence. Before you know it you will be compet-
ing in the annual Quran completion!

Masha Allah Rowaa!
