Baytul Iman School in New Jersey is hosting their Annual Qur’an Qiraat Competition. With the opportunity to win laptops, Wii games, iPods and other special prizes–this is definitely worth a day trip. Registration is based on a first-come first-served basis with the capacity to host 120-125 kids, so you better register right now.  $10 per child.

Subhanallah, they already have over 80 registered paid participants .  I just got my 6 year old registered before they closed down Level 1, since I was told by one of the organizers that it’s already full.

There are four age levels (birthdays by February 27, 2010*):

Level 1: 6-7 year old

Level 2: 8-9 year old

Level 3: 10-11 year old

Level 4: 12-15 year old

Location: 8998 Highway 18. North & Spring Valley Road, Old Bridge, NJ 08851

Time: 9:00 am sharp!

Food: Halal lunch and snacks will be provided for the kids.

Sponsorship & Donations are welcomed.

Terms & Conditions. Please read these details for dress code, description of the judging process, how final decisions cannot be contested, and if anyone wants to even try to cheat or lie about his/her child’s age simply to qualify for these great prizes–you better think again! Astaghfirlazeem, this is a Qur’an Competition–let’s keep this fair and fun for everyone, inshaAlah khir.

InshaAllah, all Muslim Kids Qur’an Competitions should honor these Terms & Conditions, because we’ve witnessed too many times when parents ruin the day for the kids and other attendees because they take the competition too seriously and force their children into harmful and even haram practices, such as lying and cheating. Ya Rabb. Please forgive us all. Ameen.

Alhumdulilah, Muslim Kids Qur’an Competitions are always great to attend even if your child/ren is/are not participating. I’m notorious for tearing up and crying whenever they have the winners recite the Qur’an at the end of the day–or, even in the beginning.

So, if you plan to attend, please comment below–we hope to see you there!
