Corat Coret ATACE

Insya-Allah, even though the website remained static for a long time, ATACE operated as usual and had successfully organized two major events, School Holidays Tahfiz Programme (26-May to 4-June) and Tahfiz Appreciation Programme (1-May).

Prior to the two events, on 24-March-2008, ATACE sent eight students to Daruzzakah in Kuala Lumpur to attempt hafazan test, juzu’ one to five, organized by Majlis Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan (MAIWP). Being MAIWP, to sit for the test, the students must reside in Kuala Lumpur. So we managed to gather only eight students who reside in Kuala Lumpur, qualified and ready to attempt the test. The bulk of our students reside in Selangor, under the jurisdiction of Jabatan Agama Islam Selangor (JAIS).

Alhamdulillah, seven of the eight students passed the test. We wish to congratulate our eight heroes and heroines.

On 23-June-08, Tn Hj Mohamed Isa (Chairman of the Kelab Kelas Tahfiz PIBG, SMIAA) and I went to JAIS in Shah Alam to enquire about similar hafazan test for our students who reside in Selangor.

JAIS said no. They only cater for 18 years old and above. Sensing our disappointment, the officer suggested us to go to JAKIM instead.

From Shah Alam, we drove on to Putrajaya, Parcel D7, where we located JAKIM’s office. In JAKIM’s office, we talked to Ustaz Zaini; he spared 30 minutes with us discussing the best approach to get ATACE’s students to attempt the hafazan test. And he suggested that we write to JAKIM with the request.

Just before leaving, I asked Ustaz Zaini for his call card. He went into his office, came back, and handed me his call card. The card says, Mohd Zaini bin Ramli, Penolong Pengarah.

And we were also told by another officer at the office that Ustaz Zaini is a hafiz.

Penolong Pengarah and a hafiz spending his precious time enthusiastically exchanging ideas with us for ATACE, we felt honoured. Alhamdulillah, Allah blessings manifest in its mysterious way.

The mind map–ATACE’s meeting agenda.
