Awards for Excellence
Yusuf Sidat
Yusuf Sidat, who came to the event even though he was down with flu and had just set for exams, receiving the award said: “I have been training since I have been five. My family have supported me through thick and thin. Since I started my hifz classes I have done well in tournaments. I thank Allah for giving me this gift. I felt proud to be awarded in front of other more talented people.”
