In the name of Allāh the Most Gracious the Extremely Merciful
Evening Madrasah
Baitul Amān Evening Madrasah is a project of Baitul Amān Mosque and Cultural Centre. It is composed of a group of properly qualified teachers who are dedicated to helping our children excel in their Islamic studies alongside their academic pursuits.
We aim to instil the love of Islam and the Qurʿān within all our children: They should be confident Muslims who are proud of their faith and their heritage while being productive members of our community.
Our teachers will work in collaboration with parents and carers in order to ensure that all our children are able to recite the Qurʿān with tajwīd, memorise masnūn duʿā, have sound understanding of the core principles of Islam, understand the basic rulings related to salāh, fasting, hājj, zakah, halāl and harām, social interaction and rights and responsibilities.
