Assalamu Alaikum RSA Family,


On behalf of the RSA board, administration and staff members, we would like to wish our RSA family and NHIEC community a blessed month of Ramadan! We pray to Allah SWT to accept our Siyam and Qiyam and to shower us with his blessings, protection and prosperity. Ramadan Mubarak!

Mashaallah, RSA teachers started already sharing with their students Ramadan activities, classroom decorations, planners, lessons, projects and much more! Encourage your children to complete these activities while enjoying the spirit of Ramadan. The blessings and joy of this month are irreplaceable! Ramadan is an opportunity to change for good, and attain Allah's mercy for eternity. Let us direct our intentions to fasting the whole month, reaping the spiritual and physiological benefits of Ramadan, and getting closer to Allah SWT.
“Whoever fasts in the month of Ramadan out of sincere faith, and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven.” – Sahih Bukhari.

Ramadan Mubarak!
