Al-Ashbāl
At Iḥyā ar-Rimāyah, the youth programme for boys and girls is known as al-Ashbāl.
We uphold a tradition that views archery not merely as a physical discipline, but as a pathway to personal growth, mindfulness, and spiritual development. While no longer practised in the context of battle, we preserve its martial spirit—using it to cultivate strength, resilience, and focus.
The al-Ashbāl are introduced to various enriching disciplines, including traditional crafts, intellectual pursuits, and artistic expressions such as poetry, calligraphy, nasheed, and qirāʾah. Their journey is firmly rooted in Islamic teachings, emphasising memorising selected Qurʾānic passages and studying Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) related to archery.
They are nurtured to become individuals of leadership, wisdom, and humility—embodying a harmonious balance of technical skill, spiritual awareness, and ethical integrity.
