Hikmah Youth: Nusaybah Gi Open 2026

🥋 Nusaybah Gi Open 2026

Bismillah.

Hikmah Youth is pleased to announce our first Girls Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Open, taking place in shaa Allah.

Hikmah Youth is a house-based madrasa initiative focused on nurturing strong character, discipline, and personal development in young people through beneficial activities rooted in Islamic principles and inspired by the Sunnah.

Through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu — a modern form of wrestling — we aim to provide young women with an opportunity to develop physical strength, confidence, resilience, self-discipline, and sportsmanship, while upholding the values of akhlaq, respect, humility, and excellence.

The Nusaybah Open has been created to give girls the opportunity to experience competition in a positive environment, challenge themselves, and celebrate their progress while maintaining Islamic values and etiquette.
