We would like to share with you our expectations for the students at The Qur’an Hubb Academy below.
Class Adab
Adab (or good manners) are very important to Muslims. At The Qur’an Hubb Academy, we strive to have a good relationship between our students, parents and teachers, based on the example of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), who said:
“The best among you in Islam are those with the best manners.“
Bukhari
Below are some expectations we have of our students, that we encourage them to demonstrate outside of the academy:
- Being punctual to class.
- Greeting the teacher with salaams.
- Mobile phones must be switched off at all times at the Academy.
- Coming to class dressed appropriately (no shorts above the knee, shoulders covered). Girls should wear tights or leggings under skirts or dresses. Headscarves are optional.
- Calling your teacher Ustadh (for a male) or Ustadha (for a female).
- Raising your hand to ask questions – never interrupt the teacher, or another student.
- Listening attentively to your fellow students, as you would want to be listened to.
- Taking care of the classroom by tidying up after yourself and not leaving your personal possessions behind.
- Making sure the toilet area is clean, after you have used it.
- Sitting still when gathered as a whole group – this includes avoiding pointing your feet at the teacher, or other students, and not distracting them, by fiddling.
- Always talking to teachers and other students with respect, care and positivity. A smile goes a long way, and a compliment even further.
- No running, jumping or horse play in the classrooms or the hallways.
