Poem: Benefits of Attending Madrasah

Going to Madrasah

Has helped us a lot,

Giving us knowledge

By all we've been taught

Learning to pray

And recite the Qur'an,

Studying Islam

While increasing our Iman

Prophets and Imams

In the lives they have led,

Have given Hadiths

Like this one, the Prophet has said:

The heart gathers rust

Just like iron,

Remove this rust

By reciting Qur'an

The young and the old

All learn to recite,

The very holy book

Helping us see light

Going to Madrasah

Has made me realize,

I'm not the only Muslim

To whom the Ibadah applies

Surrounded by Muslims

Making other friends,

Sharing my thoughts

And starting new trends

Practising Islam together

And teaching each other things,

Laughing and talking

What happiness it brings

By going to Madrasah

I've learnt to read Qur'an well,

I've also learnt Arabic

How to read, write and spell

Now I understand

Who is Aleem and Kareem,

I know how to join verbs

And what some surahs mean

Many of us pray

Not knowing what we say,

But by attending my classes

I've learnt what I recite,

Five times a day

Going to Madrasah,

We learn about the past,

All about the Prophets

From the first to the last

The successors of our Prophet,

Are the twelve beloved Imams,

Who showed us how to live

According to Islam

Laws has taught us

What's right and wrong

Keeping our faith

Solid and strong

Pilgrimage of Hajj,

And paying our Zakat,

Fasting in Ramadhan

And praying our salat

Building our qualities

Is what we're being taught,

Remembering Allah

In all our thought

In Madrasah

Morals are being learnt,

Being truthful and just

Never forgetting it's Allah we trust

As days pass

We learn what we can

We pray to Allah

To help us with Islam

And to help us understand

Throughout our life

What Madrasah has taught us,

Will come in very handy,

Even little things

Like sharing our candy.
