Notes to parents Dear parents, This material is being provided to help students prepare for the final assessment on completion of level-3 at Saleheen Academy. The questions & answers provide an overview of topics covered in level 3. Final assessment will be based on a subset of these questions. You are encouraged to use these questions as outlines of topics and discuss the related subjects at home to provide more depth and enrichment. Memorisation tasks Some questions require memorisation. These tasks are underlined. Please help your children at home to accomplish these before the assessment. These tasks include:

Performance tasks Additionally, this year’s course included making Wudoo and performing Salat the correct way. These were reviewed in class a few times. However, due to limited time available in Saleheen lessons, it is not possible for the teachers to ensure that every individual student is observing them correctly and consistently. Moreover, improving and beautifying our Ibadah is a lifelong journey for every Believer. As we approach the end of level 3, we would like to take this opportunity to remind you to observe and review the performance of Wudoo and Salat by your children and help them overcome any deficiencies through gentle and consistent reminders.
