Ahbab Al-Quran (My Skills and Experiences): Level 2, Part 2 أحباب القرآن

Ahbab al-Qur'an

First curriculum: Ahbab al-Qur'an is a curriculum specializing in Juz Amma. It presents the surahs of the juz using graphics to help children memorize the juz and remember it.

Second curriculum: Ahbab al-Qur'an: In Values We Rise consists of ten school units divided into two semesters. It focuses on love, love of Allah and His book, self-esteem, cleanliness, cooperation, being dutiful to one's parents, honesty, integrity, work, and love of one’s country, and it talks about how to implement these values in a unique way.

Third curriculum: Ahbab al-Qur'an: My Skills and Experiences emerged from the previous curriculums to empower our children by helping them acquire the academic skills that will prepare them to recite the letters and words of the Holy Qur'an and numeric cognition of its ayat and pages.

We presented this curriculum in a comprehensive way, where the alphabet and numbers are distributed on the ten values, and they hold the same value, and the letters and numbers are presented in a clear and specific methodology that arises from the story. It enriches the value of the school unit and prepares children to acquire special academic skills and experiences like attention, listening, and audial recognition and then moves through varied exercises to higher skills like visual recognition and the ability to distinguish similarities and differences and develop visual-motion collaboration skills and the child’s ability to simulate lines to write letters and numbers.

Many practical skills and activities were employed to connect children to the Holy Qur'an so that it can be a reference for them. We also worked on engaging children and the teachers in meaningful activities that are suitable to children’s nature, age, and social backgrounds in order to convert Islamic values into living values to help change the reality that we live in to a more beautiful one that holds goodness for all humankind.
