As salaamo alaikum wa rahmatu Allah wa barakatu sisters and brothers, Greetings all others…

An excellent opportunity for our children. PLease share with others!

BACKGROUND: On behalf of The Information and Resource Development Center in conjunction with the Shams School of Language, based in Temara, Morocco, we are pleased to announce the 2009 Summer Arabic Language Immersion Program. This 5-week program is now open for registration for placement at all levels and will place intense focus on learning the Arabic language, while enjoying the beauty of the Moroccan culture. Classes start on Saturday, June 20, 2009 and run through Saturday, July 25, 2009.

The Shams School of Language is directed by Abdelaziz Hadri, a native Moroccan and a doctoral candidate in the discipline of Linguistics. Insha’Allah, this program promises to offer an opportunity for us to participate in a great effort for the youth, to learn the language of the Qur’an and try to live what is learned. This will be a positive way to spend the summer.

In order to make this trip successful, we need your help. In addition to the administrative cost, We intend to make scholarships available for some of the participants. We first ask Allah to give us success, and we ask you to participate by remembering us in your prayers and helping us with yourself and your wealth. Brothers and sisters, we ask that you act quickly, for several reasons. The program starts in less than three months and passports are needed as well as other pre travel preparation.

“Who is he that will loan to Allah a beautiful loan, which Allah will double unto his credit and multiply many times?… ” (Surah Baqarah, Ayah 245)

Children’s Nasheed Group

With the help of Allah [subahanahu wa taala (SWT)] the 2nd annual Quran Recitation Competition Awards ceremony was very successful. You can see the happiness in the faces of all kids and their parents.

Now we are embarking on the second step, to establish a professional Nasheed group in Metro Washington form kids whose ages are between 8 and 12 years.

We have a talented sister who authored and put tunes to many songs for children and then trained some kids to sing them. She is willing to take care of training this professional group of kids.

We are very much interested in organizing something like this nasheed group on a regular basis, so that they can help our community to enjoy the fun of good and clean music vs. other types of music.

We are looking now for 10-12 kids.

We need committed group. Training will be once a week in Falls Church in the neighborhood of skyline.

Please let me know if you are interested to have your kids part of this.

Thanks

Wassalam
