Ahadith of the month
[Important] The honour and
respect of the words of Allah
(SWT) and His Messenger
(SAW) is obligatory on us. Due
consideration needs to be given
in the manner in which we
dispose of such material.
Abu Huraira (ra) reported
Allah's Messenger (pbuh) as
saying: When it is the month of
Ramadan, the gates of mercy are
opened, and the gates of Hell are
locked and the devils are
chained. [Sahih Muslim]

Aisha (ra) once asked the

Laylatul Qadr, what Dua should I
recite?” The Prophet (pbuh)
replied:

Virtues of Fasting
Narrated Sahl (ra): The
Prophet (pbuh) said, "There
is a gate in Paradise called
Ar-Raiyan, and those who
observe fasts will enter
through it on the Day of
Resurrection
and
none
except them will enter
through it. It will be said,
„Where are those who used
to observe fasts?' They will
get up, and none except
them will enter through it.
After their entry the gate
will be closed and nobody will
enter through it." [alBukhari]
Narrated Abu Huraira (ra):
The Prophet (pbuh) said,
"Whoever
established
prayers on the night of
Qadr out of sincere faith
and hoping for a reward
from Allah, then all his
previous
sins
will
be
forgiven; and whoever fasts
in the month of Ramadan out
of sincere faith, and hoping
for a reward from Allah,
then all his previous sins will
be forgiven." [al-Bukhari]

Indoor lunch time games due to wet weather
Grade 4C and their lunch time wet weather visitors the 4H girls had a great
time playing different games. One could easily ignore the forceful wind blowing
outside as the laughter of the children had overridden the sounds of the storm.
“I was happy that I had a lot of games and friends to play with,” said Aisha
Aden. “It was great that kids were doing different activities,” said Laiba Usman.
“I wanted so much to play outside but I realised that you can have more fun
playing inside!” said Fatima Abubaker. “I was happy because I had fun playing
with others and playing on the computer,” said Amira Abdulahi.

Education Week 2014 (18 – 24 May): Science themes
Darul Ulum College celebrated Education Week 2014 with various science themes which
provided teachers a great opportunity to immerse students and engage them in the
fascinating world of contemporary science.
Science buddies were organized by pairing up older students with younger ones so that
they may demonstrate to them simple experiments and show them that science can be
both simple and fun.
Here are some samples of the work prepared by students:
Here the grade 6A students are
distributed amongst the grade 3s.
Here the grade 5 students are distributed
amongst the grade 2s.

A festival of flight
As part of the Education Week‟s science exercises the primary sub-school organized a
„Festival of flight‟. Students‟ imaginations flew with a school-wide paper plane competition
culminating in a final fly-off to see whose paper plane would fly the furthest. Students
used their Art lessons to make and decorate paper planes while their PE lessons were used
for the flying contests. The planes‟ of prize winners for each class were displayed.

Secondary Boys’ Camp
On the 2nd of June we went on camp to Phillip Island. It was as an amazing experience and
I‟m not even sure where to start. So I guess I should start from the beginning. From the
moment we entered the bus the
fun had already started. By the
first hour of our journey the fog
started to roll in. The view was
amazing especially when we were
near the ocean. With the fog and
waves hitting the rocks to form
white
foam,
the
scene
was
absolutely breathtaking. When we
arrived at the camp site we were
greeted by a nice young man who
briefed us about the things we should and shouldn‟t do. Soon after we were in our cabins
and luckily for our group we had the best cabin. After we had taken our luggage into our
cabins our first rotation started.
First we had beach volleyball which was absolutely amazing; we played beach volleyball the
whole time. We were supposed to play soccer during the second half of the rotation but
we were so stoked on our game we didn‟t even want to play the best game in the world!
After we completed our rotation we did our prayers and just chilled in our cabins.
Thereafter we had a group activity wherein all the groups came together and played
games we had never really played before. Then, we did our prayers and we just chilled in
our cabins. Soon after we had our dinner and did our Isha prayers we just hanged around
our cabins. We were talking about scary stories and also played a bit of Uno with Ustaz
Zaid Boyd. In the next few hours lights were put out and we had to go to sleep and no one
from our cabin complained.
The next day we woke up early, did our prayers and rested in our cabins again. Breakfast
was made at around 9:30 and soon thereafter we had our first rotation of the day. We
went surfing, which was not all that bad. However, it was just too cold for some people to
surf so they decided to leave early. After surfing we had archery which was yet another
great activity, archery is all about luck! I call it the „lucksman‟, though some think archery
isn‟t really about luck, it‟s more about skill. After archery we had a competition between
all the groups, it was like a mini-Olympics. First we were racing; we had to get a stick
from the ground which was placed in a line while we were about 30m away from it. There
12
A CALLER TO WA R D S S U C C E S S
July 16, 2014
was less sticks then players
so each time around half
the players got out. In total
there were around 5 rounds
and each time half the
players got out. Finally at
the end 2 players were left,
Sherry and I and at the end
I had gotten the stick and
made my class proud. The
next thing was „fill the
barrel‟; as the barrel had many holes in it so most of the players had to cover it while
some players filled the barrel. We were winning at first then one of the other groups
caught up and bet us. After that was tug of war in we dominated the other team. Soon
enough we were back at the camp site, doing our prayers and having dinner and then going
to the campfire. It was really dark; almost pitch black until we got the fire going. Once
the fire got going we told horror stories. All the teachers had told us stories that had
happened to them or was told to them. It was crazy; it was also cold so almost all of us
were shivering from the cold as well as from the stories.
The
next
day
was
our
departure day; we prayed
our morning prayers then
had
breakfast.
We

then had to clean our rooms
and pack our bags. After we
had packed our bags we went
for our last rotation which
was
mountain
biking.
Mountain biking was all about
competition mainly between
Syed, Ustaz Zaid and myself. We weren‟t allowed to overtake but we did anyway. It was
tiring as well as fun. Going downhill was amazing as the wind just whizzed in our faces
making it pretty fun. After we had mountain biking we had our lunch and it was time to
leave. We all had a fun time there and those who didn‟t come missed out on a lot!!!

Alhamdulillah we are still in Ramadan. Library staff wish Ramadan
Mubarak to all staff members, students and parents. Ramadan is the
month of blessings. A gift from Allah Ta‟ala and our little ones can learn
what it is all about from our library‟s books on Ramadan and Eid. To
name a few, we have:
“Celebrating Eid-ul-Fitr with Ama Fatima” for students to read
how the kids enjoyed their Eid with Ama Fatima
“Eid Kareem Ameer Saab!” for students to read how Allah Ta‟ala
changed a selfish Ameer Saab into a helper within a single night.
“My first Ramadan” for student fasting for the first time to
relate to.
“Three Muslim festivals” & „‟I‟m learning about Eid-ul-Fitr” for
students to listen to Rabiah & Farah‟s learning about Ramadan
& Eid.
A few library rules:
 Very important! No food or drink in the library.
 For all booked classes, book loans/returns must be carried out
during their own library sessions. Books will be issued for a
fortnight and can also be renewed if requested. Students must
bring their library cards in order to borrow.
 Borrow/returns times for non-scheduled classes are: before school, lunchtime (1:50 pm-2:25
pm) and after school.
 Library bags have been issued to all primary students so that they can keep their book(s)
safe and for Prep to Grade 3 library bags are the key to borrowing.
 Just to make students responsible/liable towards books, we incur book damage/lost
replacement fees by issuing a fine notice. Fines depend upon the type of damage incurred.
 Please be informed that if you do not return your books by due date, a fine of 10 cents per
day will incur from the due date.
