Meet The Seniors: Tubaa Nadim 

 

 

 Interviewer: How do you feel about your last               year of high school?   Tubaa: So far from what I’ve experienced             from my senior year, is that my last year is                   really an eye-opener. You really start to             notice that a lot of things are coming to an                   end for you and that so much is changing                 around you and you really have no control               over how much time you have left… Interviewer: Which college are you planning           to go to? Tubaa: I haven't decided yet, but I am mostly                 interested in attending Stony Brook.  Interviewer: What are your future career           plans?  Tubaa: For my future career I’ve chosen to go                 into journalism/writing. Interviewer: Why are you planning to do             journalism and writing? Tubaa: I’m planning to do journalism/writing           for two reasons: first is that I believe there                 should be no cultural barrier on what your               career interests are, because every individual           is unique and has their own talents. Second of                 all I’m an introverted person who doesn’t talk               a lot, and I believe that through writing I am                   able to express that my voice and I want to be                     a representation to those who suffer from the               same problem. The fact that you have a voice                 even though it may not be vocally active. Interviewer: What are AP classes and are you               taking them? Tubaa: AP means advanced placement, which           are college level classes. Yes, I’m taking AP               classes such as AP Gov, AP Economics, AP Bio,                 AP Calculus, and AP English.   By: Hafsah Nadim/7th Grade

The New Prayer Rugs By: Farha Ferdous/Grade 7 

___________________________________________________ Alhamdulillah, our school has recently been           gifted with new, clean prayer rugs to pray on!                 This is a great blessing for the students of                 MDQ Academy, because we were praying on             the same school rugs for the last 5-6 years                 (and they weren’t exactly in the best             condition!). Now it’s our responsibility to keep             these new rugs clean and tidy! We thank Allah                 and the donors of the rugs for their               appreciation of our school. Let’s make lots of               Du’a for the parents who were very generous               and kind-hearted to let us have this new gift                 by the will of Allah!
