Field Trips and Museum Visits

Students visited the NIIMS Quran Museum, and explored the various manuscripts, and immersed themselves in knowledge! Students participated in a calligraphy class and took home a memorable piece!

A group from Orland Park mosque visited the NIIMS Museum, an enriching experience that offered a deep dive into Islamic history, art, and culture. The visit provided an opportunity to explore the museum’s extensive collection of artifacts, including intricate Islamic calligraphy, historical manuscripts, and beautifully preserved items from different periods of Islamic civilization. We look forward to future visits and encourage everyone to explore this hidden gem in NIIMS.

Today, we had the pleasure of hosting 70 women from MAS at the museum. They had a wonderful time exploring our exhibits.
