Nusrat’s Annual Quranic Recitation Competition.

Nusrat Senior Secondary School held its annual Quranic recitation competition on the 9th of June, 2018. The program was witnessed by various students from different schools that were invited to take part in the competition. Ustass Ibrahim Kah who teaches Islamic Studies in the school together with other Nusrat staff members including the principal of the school Mr Karamo S. Bojang and of course parents were there to grace the event.

The invited schools competed among themselves and each school picturing to take home the stated trophies showed their talents in reciting the words of the Merciful lord. All schools did amazingly well with their melodious voices saying the words of Allah, making  the crowd to be spiritually moved. Among the schools that attended were Nusrat SSS, Kotu SSS, ST. Peter’s SSS, Masroor SSS, Da vinci SSS and others. Finally, Kotu SSS came victorious over other schools at the end of the two-round competition. They were given the copies of the Holy Quran and other gifts as reward to their success.

The students of the school on this day prepare foods and drinks for the people and we call it IFTARR. People break their fast in the school and get served with meal partially financed by the students.  This has been the case over the years and we hope it to continues for posterity.
