The conceptual framework of the curriculum is based on the comprehensive verse 177 of Surat al-Baqarah, from which eight learning modules have been developed. The vision of the MCE is to nurture piety in our students. Piety, or taqwa, is based on a Muslim’s relationship with his Lord. Implicit in this understanding is the necessity of fully comprehending the nature of the relationship with our Creator. Verse 2:177 encapsulates the true meaning of piety (al-Birr) and forms the overarching vision for this curriculum.
