CRESCENT SCHOOL...MY UNIQUE SCHOOL!

The school Badge.

Located in New Delhi.

My school was like my second home.

The teachers were truly amazing, affectionate and they knew what they taught. They had this air of sincerity in them which made us fond of them. They loved the students and wanted not just to teach subjects but values too. The interesting thing was that they taught us all that through their own behavior.

Our Principals used to see to it that the school was not dirty and were humble enough to pick up the trash they found in the ground and threw it in the bins themselves!

I can not do justice to describing my fond memories of this specially beautiful school that I had been to.

I completed my high school from this simple yet great institution which instilled in us not only the excellence in seeking knowledge but the value of being sincere in all walks of life.

My school was a warm and naturally beautiful hub of loving teachers and other staff. The green neem trees made my school look so grand and welcoming. The freshness because of all that greenery is something I still remember so vividly!

I can recall the ways we used to address our school watchmen and bus drivers. They were caring for us and we were respectful toward them.

Even after the passage of 23 years the friends that we had there in the school are close to our hearts and mind. We are still in touch with some of those classmates and schoolmates.

What I realize through my own experience with such a school is that 'schools are not just great institutions or buildings but their greatness comes from the sincere and loving teachers and respectful and devoted students.'

My school was not very famous nor did it have a majestic building but it encouraged us to participate and experience all things under the sun.

I remember playing cricket, kabaddi, badminton and even high jumps during our Physical Training classes.

We were always active in various activities like essay competitions, debates, speeches, stage acts, singing, science fairs, projects, art and craft and many more.

I can go on relating my fond memories of this lovely school but I must stop here.

I am thankful to Almighty Allah for blessing me with this amazing school!

Before setting out for Hajj

Before setting out for Hajj: The Most Important Spiritual Preparation for Every Pilgrim Hajj is not just a journey of the body — it is a journey of the heart. Long before a pilgrim steps onto the plane, long before the ihrām is worn, and long before the talbiyah rises from the tongue, the heart must be prepared to stand before Allah in the most sacred days of a believer’s life. Among all the checklists, packing guides, and logistical preparations, there is one question every pilgrim must ask: “What is the most important thing I should do before Hajj in terms of my ʿaqīdah and inner state?” The answer, according to the scholars of the past and present, is beautifully simple: Purify your Tawḥīd and make sincere tawbah. Everything else flows from these two foundations. 1. Renewing Tawḥīd: The Heart of Hajj Hajj is the greatest physical expression of Tawḥīd. Every ritual — from the talbiyah to the ṭawāf — proclaims the Oneness of Allah. For this reason, the heart must be c...

O you who have believed...(Part-1)

O you who have believed Let us have a look at all the signs in the Noble Quran where Allah, the Almighty addresses the Believers directly. It is important to know what Allah, the Almighty says to those who profess their belief and Faith in Him. As believers in the One True God, Allah, we must have a closer look at all the commands that have been given by our Merciful Lord addressing us directly: O you who have believed, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allah is with the patient. 2:153 O you who have believed, eat from the good things which We have provided for you and be grateful to Allah if it is [indeed] Him that you worship. 2:172 O you who believe! Al-Qisas (the Law of ... in punishment) is prescribed for you in case of murder: 2:178 O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous -2:183 O you who have believed, enter into Islam completely [and perfectly] and do not follow the foot...

Why I wear Hijab.

The topic of Hijab has always been a controversial topic for many among those who are not Muslims and even among those who are Muslims. When something is not understood clearly and is approached with a stance that is personal and emotional then it is indeed a matter of doubt and uncertainty. But, when you intend to understand something sincerely and try to find out its origin and meaning from the most authentic sources then there remains no doubt and hesitation and you tend to accept it readily with ease. The same goes for the topic of Hijab. Most of the people think that Hijab is a choice and not a command by Allah in the Noble Quran and they present various points to prove it. I am just a student of Al Quran and I myself did not wear Hijab till I entered University. But one fine day, by the Will of Allah, I was reading the Chapter 24 The Light (An Noor) in the Quran. I came across the famous verses on Hijab and I felt something inside my heart. I realized that these are...
