Verily, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when you judge between people to judge with justice. Excellent is that which Allah instructs you. Verily, Allah is ever hearing and seeing.

Surat An-Nisa 4:58

"It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped.

Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out

against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a

million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep

down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance." - Robert F. Kennedy (1925 - 1968),

Grade 5: Advertisement for Crunchy Crickets Company

Nutritious Bugs

I know what you're thinking: the idea of eating bugs is just gross! Yeah, well, I hear you, but the

truth of the matter is that some bugs contain lots and lots of protein. Our company, Crunchy

Crickets, believes that bugs are the best protein source that can save the planet. Bugs can be a

very healthy alternative to all the junk food your kids eat. Just be careful; not all bugs are safe to

eat! Leave it to us experts to create nutritious foods for you and your family! Remember our

motto, Crunchy, Chewy, Chunky and Munchy!

Fatima Shamshad

Go Bugs!

Ever craved a yummy, chocolatey dessert or a gooey, fudgey brownie, but your mom said that it

was too unhealthy? Well, with our delicious cricket flour, you'll be packing on the muscles

while you lazily eat strawberry cake on your couch! How do you ask? All you have to do is buy

our Itty Bitty cricket flour and make all of your favorite foods using it. The best thing about his

product is that while you're eating your normally unhealthy dessert, you actually won't feel

guilty about doing so. This special flour will prevent you from packing on pounds you

otherwise would. Our bugs are raised within small containers that eat only food and no

chemical making them the perfect choice for your family. They also cost very little to raise

meaning more money for your pocket. The only question is, why wouldn't you buy it?

Grade 4: YOUTH IN ISLAM, Reflection

The NIA Masjid in New Jersey held an education program on Saturday, December 26, 2015.

This program was about the Muslim youth of the community. This program helped people learn

how to be yourself and what it means to be a true Muslim.

The NIA Masjid is located in Newark, New Jersey. The masjid has participated in many things

such as programs and games for children for many years. "I think that it was educational and

interesting," says Sarah Rasheed, a fourth grade student from Andalusia School. She thinks that

this program should go on more often.

Sheikh Ali started this program in 2015. It brings learning to almost 5,000 students from many

different places around the country. In 15 lessons over 5 weeks, kids learn about kindness and

Islam. "They understand how to react when they hear news and learn how to work in teams

because of the games they play," says Raymond Rasheed.

In the end of the program everyone went to go pray. After we finished praying, we took a lunch

break. Then, we got right back to the learning session. When it was over, everyone went home

and talked about how much fun it was.

Grade 3: Response to TFK/ Women’s History Month: Malala Yousafzai

Malala influences me because she is so young and she is fighting for education. The

Taliban shot her and she was still spreading a speech about the importance of education even to

boys. She even won the Nobel Peace Prize. In the article it states, “Soon after they took over,

Malala, then 11, gave a speech: How dare the Taliban take away my right to education?” This

shows how brave she was even when she was young.

Malala was so brave she did not give up. Malala is a symbol of courage. In the text it

states, “She is a champion of education rights for girls. The Taliban tried to kill her because

they don’t want girls to go to school. They were afraid that she was going to spread this

message to everyone. She is a Muslim and a strong girl.

Bilal Malik

Malala influences me because she fights for women rights. In the text it states, “Malala, then

eleven, gave a speech: How dare the Taliban take away my right to education?” Also, in the text

it states, “She is a champion of education rights for girls”. Also, Malala influences me because

she was a confident Muslim girl. She went around the world to spread the message that all

children should have the right to education.

Mustafa Kolya

Thoughts on Women’s History Month by Grade 1 Women’s History Month is important because many women have suffered. Tawakkul Karman

was one of the women who suffered. She protested for women’s rights all over the world.

Munaiza Syed

I think Women’s History Month is important because it is about women. Women helped other

women. Ibtihaj Mohammed was a USA fencer. She was the first woman to wear her hijab in the

Olympics. She is very brave.

Grade 2: Poetry

Peace Song of the Bluebirds

It’s really spring,

when the Bluebirds sing.

They sing a song of hope,

For all the children in the world to cope!

All the other animals seem to dance along,

To the tranquil melody of their song.

Do the Bluebirds know of their message,

As they make a tune from this voyage?

The Day and Life of a Balloon

I sit among my colorful friends in a bunch,

The wind hits me with a sudden punch!

I see birds moving around,

Why am I tied up on this bench stuck on the ground?

I was made to float through the sky,

I can only imagine the adventures up so high!

Come on! Come on kid! Pick me up! Set me free!

Why can't someone, adult, kid, even that pigeon hear my plea?

Rasulullah (SAW) said, “Do you know who will go first on the Day of

Resurrection to the shade of Allah? Those who when given what is

right accept it, when asked for something give freely and who judge

in favor of others as they do for themselves.”

(Al-Tirmidhi)

Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning. Benjamin Franklin
