On Monday 21 July 2025, Malek Fahd Islamic School marked the start of Term 3 with a powerful Staff Development Day, bringing together educators from across all campuses.
The day began with a moving presentation by our Executive Principal, Dr Zachariah Matthews, who explored the theme of Prophetic Leadership. His talk challenged staff to reflect on the character, vision, and emotional depth of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in their roles as educators and leaders.
We were then honoured to host American scholar Sheikh Mikaeel Smith, along with Sheikh Abdul Nasir Jangda during their Seerah Tour in Australia.
Sheikh Mikaeel Smith whose session on Prophetic Emotional Intelligence deeply resonated with staff. His insights into the emotional life of the Prophet (peace be upon him) uplifted hearts and reminded us of the importance of empathy, self-awareness, and emotional balance in our work.
This memorable day was made possible through the collaboration with Human Appeal Australia, who facilitated Sheikh Mikaeel’s visit.
Thank you to all who contributed to this inspiring and purposeful start to the term.
