Lisan ud Dawat Fast Reading Competition – Celebrating Our Language & Identity
RQA recently hosted an exciting Lisan ud Dawat Fast Reading Competition, a vibrant event that beautifully combined language, confidence, and community spirit.
For an entire month, students practiced diligently in their classrooms, refining pronunciation, fluency, and pace. Their preparation reflected discipline, enthusiasm, and a growing comfort with our beloved community language.
From Grades 2, 3, and 4, three finalists from each grade were selected to represent their classes on stage. Each finalist confidently read a prepared passage in Lisan ud Dawat, showcasing clarity, rhythm, and expressive reading. Their courage and composure in front of an audience were truly commendable.
What made the event even more special was the open challenge round — inviting not only students but also teachers to come forward and test their language skills. A number of participants stepped up, creating a lively atmosphere filled with encouragement, laughter, and shared learning. It was a beautiful reminder that learning is not limited to classrooms — it is a journey we experience together.
