In attendance were many dignitaries and scholars from the length and breath of South Africa as well as a large number of members from the local community who had come out to support the institute.
The program was a series of presentations by the diverse body of students of the Darul Uloom Pretoria,starting of with Irshaad Rojid (a 3rd year Aalim student) from Durban. After presenting his opening remarks he called upon Khalid Oraybo (a 3rd year Aallim student ) from Mozambique for the recitation of Quran Kareem.
