📣Hijabista Registration – Deadline September 15th
In collaboration with MAK and RISE, Hijabista Girls will be held in MAK (Kirkland)
Hijabista Fall 2026 Registration
We’re getting closer to the start of our new cohort, and I wanted to give families who are still considering Hijabista a little more time.
Our 12-week experience is designed to help girls ages 8–13:
💛 Grow in confidence
🌿 Strengthen their identity
🧕 Develop a genuine love for hijab
👭 Build meaningful sisterhood
🌸 Connect with Allah SWT
Choose what works for your family:
📍 HYBRID — MAK 8760 122nd Ave NE, Kirkland, WA 98033
Tuesdays · Ages 8–13, 6-7:30
💻 VIRTUAL — Worldwide
Wednesdays · Ages 8–13
We keep our groups small — only 20 girls per group — so each girl gets to feel seen, supported, and truly part of the experience.
If Hijabista has been on your mind, now is a good time to take a look and see if it’s the right fit for your daughter.
Registration closes September 15th ‼️
In collaboration between Muslim Association of Kirkland (MAK) & Risalah School of Excellence (RISE)
📖✨ A Journey Through the Prophet’s Life ﷺ✨📖

🕒 3:00 – 5:00
📍 In person at MAK
👧 Girls ages 14–18

Students will follow the life journey of the Prophet ﷺ and learn to reflect on the Qur’anic verses revealed in correspondence with his life events — so seerah and Qur’an come alive together.
What we’ll explore
✨ The difference between Makki and Madani surahs
✨ The Prophet’s ﷺ biography and his life stages
✨ Circumstances of revelation tied to his ﷺ experiences
✨ A closer study of surahs and ayahs such as Surat Al-Fath
✨ Why the Qur’an was revealed over 23 years rather than all at once
✨ How we can continue to live by the Qur’an in our world today
