On his part, the Madakin Zazzau Alhaji Mannir Ja’afaru who through the Turakin Madakin Zazzau, Alhaji Auwal Ja’afar, commended the school for its long-time contribution towards uplifting Islam stressed on the importance of unity among muslims irrespective of their differences in sects.
In his contribution, the
 Kaduna State Chairman Fityanul Islam of Nigeria, Sheikh Muhammad Rabi’u Abdullahi in his contribution also called on muslims to shelve their differences and contribute to the growth of Islam. He
described the occasion as successful and worthy of emulation.

Fielding questions from journalists shortly after the event, the proprietor, Sheik Abdulrahman Zakariya Hunain  thrilled by the turnout expressed happiness and satisfaction as he explained what the school has achieved within its 7yrs of existence.
According to him, the sky is the limit. His dream he said is to take the school to a higher level of recognition.
“Alhamdulillah! I must give thanks to Almighty Allah for what the school has achieved within a short period of time.
Within our seven years of existence, we are able to graduate 16 young verse who are not up to 15yrs old. Some 12yrs, 9yrs and 8yrs of age.
 I promise, lnsha Allah, the sky shall be our limit.
Most of our activities are channelled towards the orphans, to make sure orphans have quality education, both Quranic and Western education.
The school which started with 7 students presently has the total of 300 students out of which about 60 of them are orphans.
With quality education, it is his hope that more students will enroll.
“Alhamdulillah, l believe that as we expand and have a permanent site, we are going to have more and more students that will benefit from this knowledge.
A new syllabus the proprietor informed has been added as an opportunity for parents especially civil servants to join and learn how to read, memories, recite the holy Quran from the comfort zone of their homes.
Responding to whether the school is solely an lslamic institution, he has this to say.
“The school is offering both Quranic and  western education. We believe Islamic knowledge alone is not enough for a child. You need the two. The Islamic and western knowledge. Both should move pari passu.
“That is the reason why we have a section we call, modern ‘Alo’ system. Under the modern ‘Alo’ system, we have the western education included.
The ‘Alo’ system is the ancient system that is used to extract the knowledge of the holy Quran to students.
