00:00:00 --> 00:00:04
			Presentation for Thank you for
waiting so long. All right is how
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			the amateur so sisterhood Ahmed
has been. She's actually one of
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:11
			the best students in the
scholarship track classes. I think
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:16
			that basically, of all of her
exams are like 99%. And then if
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:21
			it's 99%, I'm gonna get an email
of how did that 1% happen. So I
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:25
			realize mashallah, this student is
so strong, and so the students
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			should be teaching. And now 100,
after a couple of years of taking
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:32
			classes at the scholarship level,
now she's teaching fifth for kids,
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:36
			and she does a very good job at
it, and very thorough job at it.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			And when, when your kids take
class with
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42
			take the fifth class with her,
you'll see that they do a very
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:46
			good job. She's thorough, and like
FNN f&m learned, basically,
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			because we're all trying to learn
how to get to the student, we're
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:52
			competing, we're competing against
video games, we're competing
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:56
			against a lot of things here,
right? So we have to tweak our
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:59
			game all the time, so to speak,
and see how we can get to students
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			now has done this as well. And
she's going to talk about how she
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:06
			does this class. But her review
session is all through Kahoot
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:10
			quizzes, which I think the kids
really get riled up on and get
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:14
			excited by so F net, how to take
it away, all right.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			My God, all right, everybody see
me?
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:47
			Alright, Bismillah R Rahman R. So
I'm basically, you know, welcome
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:51
			to pick for kids and insha, Allah,
what we're going to be doing is
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:55
			we're going to divide the classes
into two groups. Some kids have
		
00:01:55 --> 00:02:00
			taken part one with me before, so
it will be an intro class. And
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:04
			basically, we're going to be
covering, it's very heavily
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:09
			focused on salah and the Auto, and
the advanced class is going to be
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			some of the other subjects that
we're going to go over in a
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:15
			second. Each class is going to be
divided into a live session, which
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:19
			is going to be about 30 minutes,
we're going to have a Kahoot
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:22
			interactive game, which the kids
have responded really well to, I
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:26
			think it keeps them competitive.
And they review the material just
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:29
			so that you know, they can be in
the top five. And then of course,
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:34
			the Google Classroom. Occasionally
I like to do quizzes. I do like to
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38
			do kind of like an open book exam.
One of the things that we do in
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:43
			the class is we usually go based
on Shelley's book, and I don't
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:46
			know if it's going to be available
in time for the class, but if not,
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:49
			I'll be providing the kids with
notes each week so that they can
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:53
			review and go over it with their
parents as well inshallah.
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			Alright, so for the beginner
class, what we do is we go over
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:02
			what is FIP, just kind of give
them an example of an a little bit
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:05
			of an understanding of what that
means. And I think it's important
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:08
			to kind of just define it a little
bit for them, because it sounds
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:11
			like a fancy word. You don't
always know what exactly is this?
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:16
			Foundations of faith. So we do go
over heads to brain. And we do
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:19
			Eman, Islam and xn. And go to give
a little bit of an overview with
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:23
			that. Then we go over the six
pillars of Amen And what exactly
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:26
			it is that we believe as Muslims,
and what we're required to
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:29
			believe. We have the five pillars
of Islam, of course, the
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:33
			conditions of fig leaf, or
accountability, the philosophical
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:37
			hudec. And the fifth pillar, which
is actually a big bulk of the
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:41
			class, and it's probably the most
important topic that we go over.
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:45
			There's a lot of detail and filth
of Scylla because we do go over
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:50
			things like jamaa Janaza prayer,
the conditions for each, and
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:54
			there's a heavy emphasis on things
that are obligations, things that
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			are Nullifiers, things that are
sewn in how to correct ourselves
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			in certain situations.
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:05
			The advanced class is going to
review all of that, and we'll
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:08
			probably do that primarily through
Google. It's one of the things I
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:13
			like to do is I kind of included
in the games, they review these
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:16
			topics, and it kind of keeps them
sharp. And if there's something
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:20
			one of the things I also do is
when you if you've ever seen that
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:21
			when you play the game,
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			you when you when you get an
answer wrong, you see like okay,
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:29
			all the different options, and I
try to explain why this is the
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:32
			wrong answer why this is the
correct answer. So while I'm I'm
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:36
			actually going through the game, I
provide commentary. So we go
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:39
			through and then we move on to the
next question. And then we're
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:42
			going to be doing new topics as
well. So we're going to be doing
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:46
			in the next section that's going
to be filled with fasting, aka tip
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:50
			of hash filter food and manners of
Amazon. Now if your children have
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:51
			never taken
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:56
			formally before, I would recommend
starting off with the part one
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			because one of the things I didn't
notice in my last class is even
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			A lot of children have gone to
Islamic schools, they there were
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:08
			gaps in some of you know their
understandings. And it was good to
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:11
			have an opportunity to elaborate a
little bit more on it.
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:15
			So I definitely recommend if you
haven't taken it if their children
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:18
			haven't taken it before to do
that, if you have older children
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:21
			who would be interested in sitting
in and just kind of listening,
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:24
			this is a great review. I mean,
honestly, I recommend for
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:28
			everyone, every couple of years,
everyone should review, because
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:31
			it's one of those things where
there's always little things that
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			slipped through the cracks, and
you kind of forget about them.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:38
			But I definitely think the only
downside for older kids listening
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:44
			in is that this is a PG version
of. So there are topics of puberty
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:48
			and loss and things like that,
that I don't go over. But if you
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			let me know, if there are older
kids who, you know, are just
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:54
			following along with us, I might
be able to provide maybe a little
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:57
			bit of notes or anything for some
of the topics that we brought with
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			that we, you know, glance over.
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:04
			But I do think it's important that
you know, kids, you know, I know,
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:08
			it's like a dry topic. It's not
necessarily the most fun for kids.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:10
			But it's really, really important.
And again, it's one of those
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:11
			things where we build,
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:16
			we start off one year, we're, you
know, doing these subjects they
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:19
			might forget and remember 50% of
it. And then the next time they
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:22
			take it, they remember a little
bit more, and the next time a
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:25
			little bit more. So I mean, that's
the kind of the methodology that
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:28
			we're implementing. And in the
meantime, we want to have them
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:29
			have a positive
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:35
			interaction with the topic in the
class. All right, so if you have
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:39
			any questions, please, please feel
free to email me. If you have
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:42
			specific questions. During the
class. If your parents and you
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:45
			want more information, and you
feel like you don't understand
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:48
			something, or you want to review
something with your children, and
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:51
			you're struggling, you know, just
please reach out like this is a
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:54
			joint effort, I highly recommend
that the parents, you know, keep
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:57
			on top of what their kids are
learning. Sometimes it's good
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:59
			review for the parents even so
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:05
			if you have any questions again,
please reach out to me. And I
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:07
			think that is it for my end.
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:13
			Thank you very much. And this
class, mashallah, I've seen
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:17
			students and heard back from
parents who benefit a lot from the
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:20
			thorough review that occurs every
week. That's the most important
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:25
			part. And I think like the most
important other important part
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:28
			that you mentioned is gapps. Many
people have come to me, Oh, I
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:31
			don't want to take we'll do it
again. And I have some students
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:34
			who are famous for this. I can't
believe we have to study we'll do
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:37
			it again. And I'm ready. Okay,
well, name me everything that
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:40
			breaks will do. And they can't do
it. Right, or, namely, the
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:44
			obligations versus the Sunnah. And
they can't do it. So very much
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:47
			like to tweet, people think that
they're only learning to tweet
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:50
			when they're reciting. Yeah,
realizing it's when they're
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:54
			listening. Same thing with fic,
there are gaps in everyone's gaps.
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:57
			And I definitely noticed that
like, there are even, you know,
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			adults who, who don't know
anything about such as the
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:04
			distaff, or, like, that's
important, or, you know, they'll
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			think you can make a deal with
pool water or, you know, something
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			like that, you know, there'll be
something simple, but it's one of
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:12
			those things where like, these are
such, especially the hot out and
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:16
			solid, like, so, so, so important,
because it's like our daily lives,
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:20
			like five times a day, this is
like, your Salah counting. So I
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			think it's really important that
like we review, especially for
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:27
			football, like every so often. And
again, if the parents have any
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:30
			questions about something that I'm
teaching, or they want, like
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:33
			further elaboration on something,
I'm happy to, you know, to provide
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:36
			it. And again, I know, like, there
have been a number of parents who
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:40
			have reached out about older kids,
and my oldest son is 14. And he
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			sits in sometimes and he listens
in and I know that there are
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:46
			things that are missing, and I
fill in those gaps myself, but
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:50
			it's still the majority of the
information is something that any
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:55
			age can benefit from, and I look
at the first students that took
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:59
			his class last semester, they
would be able to basically will
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:04
			take the advanced class. So if
you've taken either with myself or
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:08
			or brother Ali, or I believe
Sister, you are also taught it
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:13
			last semester. So taking classes
with any of us in sha Allah, I
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:17
			would recommend taking the
advanced class. If you haven't,
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:20
			then I would really recommend
starting off with from the very
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:24
			beginning again, it's going to be
reviewed, but there will be gaps.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:27
			I almost get like all the almost
all the kids in my last class had
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:31
			gone to Islamic school, and I
still noticed that there were gaps
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:34
			in in what they knew. So
definitely recommend that
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:37
			inshallah. All right, thank you
very much.
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40
			I can say Allah and that basically
