They engage in the study of Islamic texts and a host of other activities, starting at 4 in the morning until midnight. They are instilled with a deep appreciation for nature through the concept of an eco-friendly boarding school and permaculture. Additionally, students learn to create personal projects using recyclable materials as part of their holistic education.
