Middle School Boys Halaqa & Hangout | Sidi Zeeshan Mukhtar

October 11 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

*Due to popular demand, sessions are full*

For middle school boys aged 8-13: Join us over three Fridays in October for a Halaqa and hang-out session to help them make connections and bonds, form a brotherhood, and navigate school and social challenges as they grow into young men.

These sessions aim to craft our next generation of confident, faithful Muslim men. These Halaqas are for only ages 8-13—no younger boys. The sessions are capped at 30 teens. Once limited spots are full, please join the waitlist.

Pizza is included each week.

7 p.m. to 9 p.m. | Fridays | 10/11, 10/18 & 10/25 | MCC Banquet Hall | $10/week | Register at mcceastbay.org/boys-hangout

The MCC has a standing policy that financial need should never hold a family in the East Bay from benefiting from any offering at the MCC facility. To request a financial waiver, please complete the application at mcceastbay.org/scholarship

About the halaqa facilitators

Azmat Zeeshan Mukhtar is a local father and mentor from our community who enjoys sports and kids. He will organize the activities and bring on some other dads to help volunteer and make this a rewarding activity for our young Muslim boys. Brother Zeeshan Mukhtar has previously led similar sessions at his son’s school, and in the past, he coached flag football for boys at MCC.
