Learn About Holy Quran

The words of Allah! His message, His guidance, His teachings for entire humanity. The Book which brings light into darkness; brings spiritually dead to life…. this is the Holy Quran. An Ahmadi Tifl cannot fight the ills of society and satan without the guidance in this Holy Book.

Learn about Truthfulness

A habit if not adopted at an early age comes back many years in future to haunt us, Truthfulness is a virtue every Ahmadi Muslim must have. Satan loves and adores lies; lets show the world that an Ahmadi Muslim child speaks truth and will continue to do so forever.

Learn About Friday Sermon

A blessing that no Ahmadi can ever be grateful enough to Almighty Allah for – Khilafat is the cornerstone of our lives. Love and affection of our beloved Imam as well as his guidance is instrumental in our daily lives. That man of God speaks to us every week – yes, to you my dear Atfal & Parents! Cherish it, and listen to his words.

Letter to Huzoor (aba)

When Huzur (May Allah be his helper) talks to us every week through his Friday Sermons, isn’t it upon us to write him back – say Labaik to him. Tell him that you, the future of Ahmadiyyat will always fulfill his pledge of allegiance to Khilafat Every tifl needs to make a serious commitment to make it a habit of writing regularly to Hazur (aba)

Learn about MTA

MTA offers a wealth of programs for Atfal for their tarbiyyati and taleem improvement. And Huzur (may Allah be His Helper) has guided every Ahmadi Muslim to make it habit now to regularly watch it – even suggesting at least One hour a day. Let’s find a way to fit MTA in our daily lives. An Ideal Tifl always strives to watch MTA on a regular basis.

Learn about Hard Work

Hard work is so important for Atfal that is is part of your Pledge. Almighty Allah also rewards people who do hard work with good intentions. Atfal should instill a habit of hard work at an early age which will not only benefit them, but their success will also be beneficial for Jama’at and community in general.

Learn about Chanda

Financial Sacrifice/Chanda comes in many forms and amounts but the blessings are indeed infinite. Financial sacrifice also protects us from many harms and should be given on a regular basis. Atfal should pay their Atfal Chanda ($20), Waqf-e-Jadid, Tehrike-e-Jadid and Sadqa.

Learn about Respect for Elders

It is very important to take care of the elderly, paying them due respect, and never neglecting them. It is our moral, social and religious duty to always be at their service and give them a helping hand during their old age. This habit ensures that future generations will inshallah also have this noble habit if it is instilled in our youth.

Learn about Salat

The second pillar of Islam; the one which becomes obligatory at age 10 and recommended at age 7; the one which connects us to our Creator; the one which is the heart & soul of our worship. Inculcate this habit as it protects from evil and shuns wrongdoings.
