Al-Hidayah Campus Science Exhibition & Talent Show: A Fusion of Knowledge, Creativity, and Faith
The Science Exhibition cum Talent Show at Al-Hidayah Campus was a remarkable celebration of intellect, innovation, and creativity, all viewed through the lens of Islamic teachings. The event aimed to inspire students to explore the wonders of Allah’s creation, demonstrating how scientific knowledge and artistic talent can be harmonized with faith.
Science: A Path to Recognizing Allah’s Signs
Islam strongly encourages the pursuit of knowledge, particularly in science and exploration, as a means to understand the universe and deepen faith. The Quran repeatedly calls upon humankind to reflect upon the natural world:
“Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, are signs for those of understanding.” (Surah Aal-e-Imran 3:190)
The exhibition reflected this principle, showcasing how scientific inquiry aligns with the Quranic call to ponder the wonders of creation.
Event Highlights

The science fair featured innovative projects and models designed by students, demonstrating their understanding of various scientific fields, including:
- Astronomy & Space Science: Models of the solar system, the James Webb Space Telescope, and discussions on how the Quran speaks of celestial bodies and the vastness of space.

“And do not cause corruption upon the earth after its reformation.” (Surah Al-A’raf 7:56)

“And We have certainly created man in the best of stature.” (Surah At-Tin 95:4)

An Event Rooted in Knowledge, Faith, and Ethics
The Science Exhibition cum Talent Show at Al-Hidayah Campus was more than just a display of academic and artistic excellence—it was a reaffirmation that knowledge, whether scientific or creative, is a means to recognize and appreciate the wisdom of Allah (SWT). The event encouraged students to pursue education with sincerity, linking their intellectual pursuits with the greater purpose of serving humanity and worshiping Allah through their talents.
The event concluded with a motivational speech by an esteemed scholar, reminding students of the Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) words:
“Seeking knowledge is an obligation upon every Muslim.” (Sunan Ibn Majah 224)
Prizes and certificates were awarded to the best projects and performances, but the true success was in the learning, inspiration, and unity fostered by the event.
