Islamic Studies

Islamic studies have a central role to play in managing the personal, social, cultural, moral, academic, religious and spiritual aspects of the pupils’ lives. They enhance pupils’ Islamic values and thereby help them to put the Islamic way of life into practice as commanded by Allah in the Holy Qur’an and indicated by the Prophet Muhammad’s (SAW) Sunnah.
