Rukshana Sampson inspires others
Southern Mail
|June 25, 2025
At just 17 years old, Zeekoevlei teenager Rukshana Sampson, has already completed the memorisation of the Qur'an (Hifz), graduated from a Quranic institute, and self-published two books inspired by her faith journey.
Rukshana launched her first book at The Women's Forum in Grassy Park on September 7 last year, where family, friends, and supporters gathered to celebrate her achievement.
Titled Basic understanding of Madds in Tajweed (rules that govern the correct pronunciation of Arabic letters and the application of various recitation technique) for children who are memorising the Qur'an.
Her path has been anything but straightforward. She left Jam Eyyatul Qurra, in Schaapkraal's academic school in Grade 9 to join their Hifz programme, and also graduated from there.
After completing Hifz in 2022 and graduating in 2023, she briefly considered pursuing a career in cardiology. That led her to continue her schooling at Good Hope Seminary High School in Cape Town, but she left after just three days in Grade 11, overwhelmed by the environment.
