Stories are special. They can transport you to another world. They can convey morals and values in the most interesting and engaging ways. They are relatable. And the Qur’an is full of them, there to inform, educate and learn from.

Each story will be told using interactive storytelling, followed by discussions and activities specifically targeted at issues affecting young people.
The year will be split up into three parts, each part focusing on a different theme, all centred around stories.
No, although there will be some formal learning, there will be a relaxed club like element where there will be games, discussions, activities, and termly challenges with prizes. The key will be to develop a rapport with young people and see them grow on this quest to establish a connection with their Lord, learn to navigate challenges, and explore positive role models, all through authentic stories.
