They shared the following brief description of their school Al Huda International.

Al Huda International, a place where the Qu’ran and Sunnah are taught, from the youth to the elderly. A place where women and their children can experience solace.

Al Huda started by a Sister who had a vision, “Qu’ran for all in every heart, in every hand.” This vision turned into a non-profit, non-sectarian, non-political organization that is currently working to promote authentic Islamic knowledge.

Al Huda Institute Canada began its educational program in 2001, and is now providing structured courses for people from all walks of life, ranging from courses online to workshops and a variety of publications and multi-media downloads.

The main objective of the Al Huda Institute is to present a true understanding of the Divine Revelation – the Qur’an and Sunnah. The courses are designed to enable students to develop an intimate relationship with The Creator; find inner peace, develop good character, demonstrate effective interpersonal relations and become beneficial members of society working to better serve humanity.

• VIDEO

Instead of the video, we ended the Halaqa and then Sister Sofia led a craft session with all

the children.  She incorporated Islamic teachings while having the children make gifts for

their moms.

196 - "How perfect You are O Allah, and I praise You. I bear witness

that None has the right to be worshipped except You. I seek Your

forgiveness and turn to You in repentance."

سُبْحـانَكَ اللّهُـمَّ وَبِحَمدِك، أَشْهَـدُ أَنْ لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتوبُ إِلَـيْك

Subhânaka l-lâhumma wa bi-hamdika. Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illâ

anta, astaghfiruka wa atûbu ilayka.
