After seeing a lack of strong curricula and the struggle of Islamic school teachers to teach as they were mostly neither experts in education nor had they studied in the seminary, Sh. Aous would take on the challenge of creating a curriculum that aimed to solve this issue. Together with Sh. Basill Al-Haddad, they embarked on this journey to create a good curriculum that would be a turn-key solution, one that would not require an expert to teach it but would require the teachers to be trained and certified by them before teaching it.
