The speakers quoted verse 21 of Surah Al Ahzab in the holy Quran. It says that the Messenger of Allah is an excellent example for you. They said every part of the Prophet’s (SAW) life is worth following for all people. They said peace, order, justice and human values can grow in a person, a family and a society only if people hold his ideals and follow them in real life.
The speakers also said the society faces moral decline, unrest and many kinds of disorder today. They said it is very important to spread the Prophet’s (SAW) ideals among the new generation. They asked school and madrasa students to learn about the Seerat from childhood and to build their lives on his ideals. They said such contests will help raise Islamic learning, good morals and love for the Prophet among students.

Prizes were given to the students who did well in different events. The guests handed the prizes to the winners at the program.
The madrasa banner carried the message of verse 21 of Surah Al Ahzab. It showed the main theme of the whole program well. The organizers hoped that such programs will make students more eager to study and follow the Seerat. They also hoped students will feel inspired to shape their lives by the Prophet’s (SAW) ideals.
