What we want?
Islamiyat
Islamiyat In our madaris, students learn Islamiat using trusted resources like the Safar books and the Tasheel series. The lessons cover important topics such as Islamic beliefs, history, and daily practices in a way that is easy for children to understand. Students are taught lessons they can use in their daily lives, such as honesty, kindness, and prayer. To ensure proper learning, their progress is checked with mid-year and end-of-year exams, which allows parents and teachers to see their development clearly. In addition to these core subjects, we offer several specialized programs, including the Aalima Course, Weekday and Weekend Madrasahs, Youth Programs, Adult Classes, and various Islamic Activities. These services provide learning opportunities for all ages and interests.
Quran Reading:
The Qur’an reading program is carefully structured in stages so that students can build confidence step by step. They begin with the Qaida, where they learn the Arabic letters and how to join them into words. Once they are confident, they move to Juz Amma, starting with the short surahs that they can also use in their daily salah. After this, they progress to reading the entire Qur’an, developing fluency and accuracy along the way. Teachers focus strongly on tajweed, ensuring every word is pronounced correctly. Their progress is tracked through mid-year and end-of-year exams, helping both students and teachers to see what areas need more focus. At present, 24 teachers are guiding 320 students in this program.
Quran Memorisation
For students aiming to memorize the Qur’an, we offer an intensive hifdh program. We have a full-time hifdh program with 1 student and a part-time hifdh program with 16 students. Students usually begin with smaller surahs from Juz Amma before moving on to larger portions. They follow a structured daily routine of new memorization,recent revision, and long-term revision , so that nothing is forgotten. Teachers check their recitation daily and set achievable targets. Their progress is also tested formally with mid-year and end-of-year exams, ensuring accuracy and consistency. To date, 45 huffaz have already graduated.

Imamat
Daily Salah
Daily salah is led by our imams and our trained huffaz. These prayers are held in Darul Arqam Masjid in Sandringham and Masjid Muhammad in Papatoetoe. As a mandatory part of their training, our students are required to lead these prayers. This provides a consistent routine of worship for the community and encourages people to improve their recitation and bring more discipline into their lives.
Jumuahs
We offer Jumuah services at Darul Arqam in Sandringham, Masjid Muhammad in Papatoetoe, and May Road Community Hall. During school holidays, Jumuah salah is led by our huffaz, who are trained for this purpose. At Darul Arqam, we hold three jammats (congregations) during school holidays due to limited space, while on normal days we have two jamaats. Every week, khutbahs are delivered across our centers, making Jumuah salah one of the most important weekly gatherings for our community.
Tarawih
Our imams and trained huffaz lead Tarawih prayers all over New Zealand. As a mandatory part of their training, students lead these prayers in our girls’ madrasah. We also manage Tarawih prayers in Darul Arqam Masjid in Sandringham and Masjid Muhammad in Papatoetoe, where we handle large crowds.
UKLA Islamic Store
Our Islamic book store provides authentic curriculum materials for our own madrasahs, as well as other madrasahs, schools, and families.

We also offer other goods like perfumes. The store provides online ordering and bulk purchase options.
