Head Moallim
My name is Shakir Sh Sadeqali Burhani. I was born and raised in Houston, and began an amazing journey when I went to Jamea in Karachi in 1993. After Jamea, I went on to graduate from the University of Houston, and ran my own business for 6 years. While I have been teaching in Madrasah for 22 years, my formal khidmat in Attalim began in 2010. Today, I see my khidmat as an opportunity to help our farzando embrace our deen, our culture, and our heritage while also pursuing their own passions. With the Dua of Aqa Moula TUS, and the help of this amazing team, we can all help give our farzando the skills and confidence they will need to be well-rounded citizens of this world.Â
Blessed with the sharaf of Hifz al Quran, I have been involved in teaching khidmat for over 10 years now in both Madrasah and Mukhayam. I enjoy connecting with farzando and getting acquainted with them alongside teaching.
Brought up right here in DFW, I studied in Aljamea tus Saifiyah, Surat before coming back to the USA to pursue a Master's degree in Library and Information Science. At Madrasa Shujaee, I use this mixed experience to help kids explore our cultural heritage and create transformative solutions for their own lives and the world.
I'm Saifuddin Jamali - A Muntasib of Jamea and a Telecom Engineer by profession. I have been in Madrasah khidmat for over a decade or more than 500 Saturdays! I have committed to learning. Yes, the questions these young inquisitive farzando ask, it's as if I get to learn something everyday, too. Or forget what I learned (depending on their question!) 😄
My name is Arwa Sh Shakir Burhani. I am an alumnus of Al-Jamea-tus Saifiyah with over 20 years of experience in teaching.

I am excited to be part of the Madrasa Shujaee family and look forward to supporting and helping all farzando grow and reach their potential, jem Moula TUS ni khushi che.
