About Us
Let's strive to develop the characteristics of Ebadur-Rahman
Our Mission
To educate the children to the actual concept of Islam through Qur'an and the Sunnah. Through the seerah of the prophet (S) and inspirational great Muslim personalities, the program aims to develop, for its students, love of Allah and Prophet(S), love for our religion, and help children become loving and responsible members of our family and community.
Our Vision
The program aims to intellectually stimulate the students to help them grow up as confident, strong, productive, responsible, and practising Muslims (choosing Islam as the way of life), which enable them to succeed in this life and the Hereafter in sha Allah. To involve parents in the Islamic education of their children and cultivate good Islamic values to fulfil their responsibilities towards their children (Children: an Amanah given by Allah SWT, for which we are accountable on the day of judgment).
Technology Vision
The vision of technology integration is to use technologically enriched instructional methods to enhance students' teaching-learning experience with diverse strength and needs. Additionally, the idea of technology integration also encompasses providing every student with access to educational technology resources, making understanding the Quran an exciting activity, and fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The technological infusion should help them become proficient in different curricular areas, such as reading, writing, comprehending, and memorizing the Quranic scripts. Although enhancing the teaching-learning experience is the primary goal of technology integration, the vision also focuses on transforming students of today into tomorrow's responsible digital citizens.
General Notes
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu, Welcome to the Ebadur-Rahman, Hifz-e-Quran, Arabic, and Islamic studies school.
Muslim children growing up in North America and other parts of the world face diverse challenges and conflicting pressures at schools and among peers. They are constantly influenced by mainstream youth culture. It is difficult to isolate them from these influences, and it is painful to see them sway into the mainstream. Excessive consumerism, peer pressure, media culture, Internet, and technology confuse youngsters about their ideal objective in life. Parents trying to raise their children with an Islamic identity are increasingly challenged. In sha Allah, this program will help children become productive, loving, responsible, practicing Muslims and develop the characteristics of Ebadur-Rahman.

BBA (MUN). MEd. (Ongoing). I am a dedicated teacher at EbadurRahman school. I teach our class one students. I have been involved with EbadurRahman school from the beginning. I hold an undergraduate degree and am currently pursuing a master's degree in Educational Technology at Memorial University of Newfoundland. My hobby is to spend time reading books to children. I believe one of the best ways to show kindness is through spreading knowledge. Islam encourages gaining knowledge, which is evident through the following hadith: "Talabul 'ilmi faridatun 'ala kulli muslimin wal muslimat." It is fard to gain knowledge (Islamic) for every Muslim man and woman. Therefore, it is both an opportunity and a blessing for me to teach kids and spread Islamic knowledge, which will help to build a strong Muslim ummah in sha Allah.
