aLIVE Madrasah

aLIVE@Al-Mawaddah

Vision
Towards an Institution of Excellence in Islamic Learning for Young Muslims

Mission
To nurture our students with mawaddah (affection) and taqwa (piety) through a dynamic Islamic education

Al-Mawaddah Mosque is using the aLIVE programme as the curriculum for its weekly madrasah (once a week), in line with the aspiration of the Singapore Islamic Education System.

The aLIVE programmes are being developed by the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) as part of its continuous improvement efforts towards excellence in structured part-time Islamic Education for the young.

aLIVE seeks to provide a national baseline Islamic Education curriculum for all young Muslims, 5-24 years old to help them face life’s challenges and remain true to their Muslim identity in a multi religious, multi ethnic society and globalised world. This programme is conducted in English.

For detailed information about the aLIVE Curriculum, please visit www.alive.sg

Since 2009, aLIVE@Al-Mawaddah is humbled and pleased to have worked with parents in nurturing and teaching Islamic education to the young , from age 5 to 20 years old. We have taught close to 1500 Muslim children residing in Hougang, Sengkang and Punggol. Our students are diverse in race and background. Having classes conducted in English has allowed our students to meet friends of different races and ethnicity and an opportunity for them to understand Unity in the Ummah.

Our classes incorporated aLIVE Qur’anic Literacy and Solat Literacy at all levels. This is an important component to allow students from different levels to learn basic Islamic education, apart from their weekly lessons as designed in the aLIVE Curriculum.

Currently, Al-Mawaddah conducts about 70 classes from Kids, Tweens, Teens and Youth aLIVE on weekends and weekdays. For a glimpse of aLIVE@ Al-Mawaddah, please like our Facebook page.
