Ahlul Bayt 1st BPSA Scouts

1st Ottawa Baden Powell Scouting Association (Ahlul-Bayt Scouting) – فوج خاتم الأنبياء ع is an Islamic scouting group for boys and girls aged 5 to 19 years.
The main objectives of this association is to provide our children and youth with the opportunity to engage in positive activities which encourage essential characteristics such as responsibility, motivation, discipline, respect, integrity, organization, punctuality, and cooperation. Other essential characteristics include cleanliness, friendliness, and confidence.

Scouting also strongly emphasizes a sense of leadership in our youth which they can take with them in all aspects of life. The scouting values that are strongly reinforced include a love of nature and the environment, an emphasis on leading a life of physical activity and exercise, and expression through artistic means.

The religious aspect of our association emphasizes moral and ethical behavior and the importance of faith in our everyday lives. Our entire program is given in the Arabic language because it is the language of our Holy Quran and we encourage its use in speaking, reading, and writing.

Scouters become very well-rounded individuals and grow into resourceful leaders and role-models in society.
