(Noorullah Noor) On Thursday, 9th January 2025, an outstanding speech competition was held among the students of Markaz-e-Islami Education and Research Centre (MIERC), Ankleshwar Gujarat. The competition consisted of three rounds, with 12 students qualifying for the final round. Among them, three outstanding students demonstrated exceptional oratory skills and emerged as the finalists. They delivered speeches on various insightful topics with great enthusiasm, captivating the audience and giving their absolute best.

The program began with its customary proceedings. Maulana Khalid and Ikramullah served as anchors, delivering an introductory talk to set the tone. This was followed by a series of speeches, where participants presented their thoughts on various topics. In the final round, Molvi Imran Zeeshan secured the first position, Molvi Muhammad Shakil earned the second spot, and Molvi Athar had to settle for third place.

The program presided over by Maul. Qari Rasheed Ahamad Ajmeri, Shaikhul Hadith at Darul Uloom Ashrafiya, Rander Surat, Gujarat. Addressed the students he provided a valuable piece of advice. He said, “Language is a great tool for imparting knowledge; it holds great importance in the current scenario. Moreover, without having expertise over the language, your contributions are limited.” He further said, “There are plenty of Islamic sources and teachings that need to be transformed and translated from Arabic language into other languages, and absolutely English can play a pivotal role for this purpose. Therefore, we must learn this very language.”

Emphasizing on religious duty he said that Islam is a universal religion which needs to be preached across the world, and this task will be easier by imparting the teachings of Islam in English language. He added, “Learning language is not a sinful act; rather, Islam stimulates its followers to gain commands over languages. So, you all try to learn English language with good intentions.”

This amazing gathering came to an end with his accepted supplication. On this occasion, all the teachers of MIERC and the principal of the institute, Mr. Haji Iqbal, were present.
