About

What is Hikmah Youth?

  • Hikmah Youth is a Madrasah established by our beloved Ustadha Khadijah within the comfort of her own home, now named as ‘House of Al-Arqam’.

    In the summer of 2016, Ustadha Khadijah began her community work by helping family friends learn to read the Qur'an. Soon after, their children also joined her classes. By the grace of Allah, this humble beginning has blossomed into what we know today as Hikmah Youth, having served over 100 students over the years, all within the welcoming space of Ustadha's household.

  • Ustadha Samah Shahid

Behind The Logo

  • The 'Hikmah Youth' logo features a quill, symbolizing the pen, which is mentioned in the Qur'an: "Read, for your Lord is the Most Generous, who taught by the pen, who taught man what he did not know" (Quran, 96:1-5). This verse highlights the significance of knowledge and the written word, connecting deeply with the essence of the organization. Additionally, the word حكمة (Hikmah), meaning wisdom, is integral to the logo, reflecting the core mission of Hikmah Youth to cultivate knowledge and wisdom in young minds.
