The vision of AIMS is to train the

children of our community today to

be the soldiers of Imam Zamana’s

(A.T.F) army tomorrow. At AIMS,

We highly encourage children to

acquire knowledge by accepting it

with reasoning. We believe, that

information shouldn’t be just

crammed into the young mind, so

we try to inculcate knowledge

through understanding based on

reasoning as the knowledge

acquired through reasoning stays in

the minds, forever.

We believe in inculcating Islamic

values to the children and groom

these children in such a way that

Islamic practices become a part of

their day to day routine and they

accept religion willingly.

We believe in indirect teaching

methodology of facilitating children

to learn through programs such as:

Ahlulbait (A.S.) Islamic Mission School

Al-Sadiq institute of Islamic Banking,

Finance and Takaful has been set up

to create awareness in masses and

professionals, about the Islamic

Majalis and public discourses are

the best and most effective

medium to spread the teachings of

Ahlul-bait (A.S).

In our society where male speakers

are mostly respected Ulama and

knowledgeable scholars, there is a

dire need of female preachers who

could explain the true message of

Islam.

In order to fulfill the need, Zahra (S.A)

Academy initiated Zakri course

in 2009, where female students are

trained and given extensive Islamic

knowledge to enable them to guide

the society through Majalis and

lectures all year round.

Course duration is three years.

The course content is built to train

students in delivering the concepts

of Islam in a most effective manner.

Al-Sadiq Institute is proud to be

affiliated with Skill Development

Council (SDC) Karachi, established

by the Government of Pakistan

to make the Technical & Vocational

Training Programs flexible, demand

driven and cost effective.

Al-Sadiq institute has acquired the

expertise of professionals comprising

of research scholars, Ulama and

skilled bankers to achieve the

following goals;

It is good to know that our graduates

have gone on to develop a

promising career in Islamic Banking

Quran Centre, situated at Defence

Housing Authority, was set up by

Zahra (S.A.) Academy in the year

2006 for the spiritual guidance of

Momineen in a peaceful environ-

ment. Initially, weekly and Ramzan-

ul-Mubarak lectures were held there,

using advanced technology and

comfortable environment, it has

now become centre point of Zahra

(A.S) Academy’s educational and

Tabligh programs.

The plan for the center is to be used

as Quran based research Institute.

However, in the meantime, it is

being used for holding Majalis and

other events throughout the year.

The Quran centre has been

equipped with a wide-ranging Book

Store, emphasizing on availability of

the books that are easy to

endeavors the mission of supporting

MS/MS leading to PhD/PhD scholars

in their pursue of knowledge and

make sure that no willing student

cease to attain higher education

with their expertise.

Zahra (S.A) Academy thrives to

provide assistance and proper

guidance through scholars and

professionals of related field who

may guide the students about

admission procedure and counsel

them to eliminate weak spots in their

educational profiles.

Graduates who are willing to

Relief Efforts of

Zahra (s.a.) Academy

Heavy monsoon rains, the rapid

melting of snow and outbursts from

glacial lakes from 16 to 22 July 2015

led to flash floods and the flooding

of the Indus River in various locations

across Pakistan. Chitral District in

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa had been

badly hit with an estimated 285,000

people affected. Areas in Gilgit

Baltistan, Punjab and Sindh were

also affected.

Zahra (s.a.) Academy launched an

Emergency Appeal on 05 August

to support victims of flood with

provision of emergency health

services, food, water and sanitation

services, emergency shelter and

essential household assistance.

Alhumdolillah Momineen responded

quickly to our relief appeal by

donating to the emergency relief

Toilet Project

There are millions of people in

Pakistan who do not have access to

a toilet which is a basic human need.

Absence of toilets at home robs

women of basic human dignity.

In 2013, the UN officially recognized

November 19 as World Toilet Day to

make sanitation for all a global

development priority.

According to a report published in

Dawn March, 9th , 2015: "There are

41 million people who do not have

access to a toilet in Pakistan and as

a result they are defecating in the

open. Open defecation has

significant health and nutritional

consequences. The problem can

spread disease and lead to intestinal

infections, which can contribute to

stunting in young children meaning

that children don't grow as tall as

they would otherwise, and it can also

affect a child's brain development.

Taking the situation into considera-

tion, Zahra (S.A) Academy initiated

its Toilet Construction Project in 2014

to assist households build toilets so

they don't have to go to the fields.

In the first phase, we were able to

build in Dec. 2014 in Dera

Our motive is to move them towards

self-reliance so that they don’t need

to seek assistance.

There is no doubt that the social

upliftment programs play remarkable

role in the lives of people living in

under-developing countries like

Pakistan. Uplifting projects among

other charitable services have a

distinguish position, it is in fact an

Ebadat which enables the deserving

people to earn their own livelihood.

It releases them from economic

distress and moves them towards

self-reliance.

In Ramadan 1436 AH, like previous

years, Zahra (s.a.) Academy made

an appeal to provide Iftari to the

needy momineen living in

less-previledged areas of Pakistan.

Alhamdulillah momineen responded

to our call and we were able to

provide iftari during the holy month

of Ramadan worth Rs. 2 million.

Zahra (S.A.) Academy has been

dispatching male and female

preachers during the holy month of

Ramadan in remote areas of Sindh,

Baluchistan and Punjab where

people cannot afford a regular

preacher due to lack of funds. In this

holy month we make efforts to

reduce the deficiency of religious

and spiritual programs by sending

Muballigheen who stay in distant

areas the whole month for preaching

and teaching religion.

Distribution of

Zakat e Fitra

The Holy Prophet (saww) said: "The

Fast remains suspended between

the heavens and the earth until Fitra

is discharged". Fitra is paid to the

needy people so that they can fulfill

their needs on the Eid day, since Eid

day is to be celebrated by all

Muslims.

In 2015, Zahra (s.a.) Academy

collected Rs. 461,535 as Zakat e Fitra

and distributed it among Sadat

(Rs. 87,130) and non-Sadat

(Rs. 374,405) families of martyrs,

widows, injured and disabled

persons.

During Ramadan, it is especially hard

for the destitute to meet the needs of

their family – a food parcel from

Zahra (s.a.) Academy can make a

big difference for them.

solutions.

In response to this demand Zahra

(S.A.) Academy initiated Al-Atash Ya

Hussain (A.S.) Water Project in 2011

to help poverty-stricken families of

urban and rural areas of all four

provinces of the country gain easy

access to safe drinking water. We are

continuously striving to resolve this

painful issue with the help of Allah

(s.w.t.) and with generous donations

from momineen and mominat.

Alhamdulillah, in 2015 we managed

to install a total of 306 normal hand

pumps in urban and rural areas of

Sindh, Baluchistan, KPK and Punjab.

Canal Pumps

The main source of water in rural

areas is the hand pump but in areas

where underground potable water

is not available we have built water

storage tanks which are filled with the

help of canal pumps. The pump

draws water from the source and

stores it in water storage tanks for

later use.

Samar Pumps

Sindh (2):

Alhamdulillah two such canal pumps

along with water storage tanks have

been installed at village seeta (700

feet long canal) and village

Bahadurpur (300 feet long canal) of

Tehsil KN Shah, Sindh.

Water Pools

There are some regions in interior

Sindh where the underground water

is not available or has become

harmful for life as a result of

experiments done in search of

natural gas. To resolve this painful

issue there was a need to construct

large pools to store water drawn from

a remote water source via canals

with the help of a heavy suction

Details:

Sindh (2 + 26 canal hand pumps):

Two large water Pools (50 square ft

each with 24,000 gallon capacity)

from the pools, different size of

canals were stretched up to the hand

Tabligh Project

No doubt; there is a great need of

preaching activities in deprived

areas of interior Sindh, Baluchistan

and Punjab as the people are mostly

unaware of religious obligations.

By the grace of Allah (S.W.T.)

Zahra (S.A.) Academy has been

arranging various programs in

accordance with different religious

Scholars of Zahra (S.A.) Academy

have been honored by Maraja-e-

Taqleed to assist in solving family

issues. On basis of that we have

created three religious guidance

centers in Soldier Bazar, PECHS and

DHA for providing solutions to

religious, social, moral and other

personal, family and inheritance

problems. Facilities like will writing,

resolving disputes, receiving religious

dues are also provided.

Books are the main source of

Tabligh in the areas where a

muballigh can't reach, it is through

reading material that we can clarify

many confusions and questions

which rise in the minds of people

and through books we can fulfill the

spiritual needs of those who can't

approach the scholars because of

any reason.

In short there is no alternate of book

as far as spreading the message of

Islam is concerned otherwise Allah

(S.W.T.) would have used that source

in place of sending the book and

keeping it even after the death of

Holy Prophet (S.A.W.W).

Keeping this in mind till now we

have managed to get more than

25 books printed and published

with our limited resources.
