My Visit to Salam Center
Markaz Salam is a one month old Arabic Learning Center right across the street from King Fahad High School (very close to Masjid Bilal). I had heard very good things about this center and decided to take my cousin there to check it out. It was founded by Ustath Mahmoud Ziyadah, the founder of this website: http://welovearabic.com/
We received a warm welcome and I was very impressed from the moment I stepped in. The center itself is very nice and the curriculum seems excellent. All the books used were written by the founder himself. It seems like he took the best from Kitab al-Asaasi, Al-Arabiyyah Bayna Yadayk, and the Medinah Uni Arabic books combined, masha’Allah.
They put high priority to giving the student a custom class designed specifically to their needs…something I find lacking in most of the centers here even in those that offer private classes. After visiting other centers, my cousin decided to register for Salam Center on the spot! At the moment they are just starting off so they only have a small staff but I’m sure it will continue to grow insha’Allah. Private classes are 20 LE an hour. Classrooms have AC :)
The Akhir Kalam is that it looks like my cousin will start off with Salam Center and see how it goes, and then she may consider still taking one of the Summer Intensive programs with Fajr Center.
Still in Cairo sis?? How are you doing in the heat? Drink a lot of water ukhti, it’ll only get hotter from now till August. Fee aman Allah.
Masha’Allah, it’s exiting to read about your “adventures” (if I may call it that) in Egypt. My uncle lives in Cairo and offered to pay for my plane ticket if I were to come and stay but I admit I’m afraid.
I suppose the hesitation lies somewhere between crazy Egyptian men and cockroaches.

sorry, you can delete this message.
when I sent my first comment, I included my email account in the website field by accident! so I sent another to correct the situation :)

Tell her to start a blog so I can keep up with her tales of fortune and discovery :-p ( sounds like a kings quest game doesn’t it)
