Deer parents and students assalamu alaikum,

Alhumdulillah, we have the opportunity to participate in the Qur’an contest again this year, even under the challenging situation, and we encourage everyone to do so. The Qur’an contest is tomorrow, Friday, September 11th. Here is the link for the Zoom session

For MS and HS, try your best to use your support and independent times otherwise ask permission from your teacher to leave classes earlier if needed. Note that there may be some delays if many students participate or a student takes more time than scheduled. So please be on time to avoid delays.

We would like to remind you that Allah (SWT) watches us even if there is no one around. Here are some rules that are needed to make it as fair as possible for everyone. We would like to seek parents’ help in this regard.
1- The student should be accompanied by an adult that we can see at all times during the recitation time.

In addition, these instructions should be followed. The directions for students are:
2- Be in a quiet room.
3- Be looking at the camera, the ceiling, or close your eyes (covering them with a piece of cloth) unless the judges ask you to do something else.
4- Don’t leave the Zoom session. If unfortunately, that happens, then you will be at the end of the line and will have to start from the beginning.
5- Put the mushaf (the Kitab, the Qur’an) away from you.
6- Sit far away from the computer with your hands folded and visible.
7- Have the camera turned on all the time during the recitation. If it is not, you will be removed from the testing room and cannot rejoin except after half an hour. If the judges were done, then you will lose the chance to participate.
8- Have no other devices open in the testing room, such as another computer, iPad, phone, etc.

If you have any questions email Ms. Hanan at Hanan.Deeb@ISSDweb.org
Jazakumu Allahu khairan.
