MAK POLY AT TOYCAC’26
MAK Polytechnic, formerly known as The Oke-Ogun Polytechnic, Saki, proudly participated in the TIMSAN Oyo State Camp and Conference 2026 (TOYCAC’26), which was held in Ogbomoso, Oyo State.
Alhamdulillāh, the programme was a great success and a memorable gathering that brought together brothers and sisters from different institutions and communities across Oyo State. It provided a wonderful opportunity for our members to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood, share knowledge, learn from one another, and deepen their understanding of the Tijaniyyah Ṭarīqah.
One of the major highlights of the conference was the presence of our respected Tijaniyyah scholars, who were invited to enlighten and educate the participants about the teachings, principles, history, and spiritual path of Ṭarīqah Aḥmadiyyah Tijaniyyah. Through their lectures and guidance, participants were reminded of the importance of holding firmly to the Qur’an and Sunnah, maintaining love for our beloved Prophet Muḥammad SAW, increasing in Ṣalāt ʿalan-Nabī, engaging in Dhikr, and cultivating good character.
The Tijaniyyah is a path centred on the love and remembrance of Allah, adherence to the teachings of the Messenger of Allah Muḥammad SAW, and spiritual purification. The gathering further reminded us that true spirituality should reflect itself in our character, our dealings with people, our pursuit of knowledge, and our service to humanity.
Another remarkable aspect of TOYCAC’26 was the debate competition, in which our brothers and sisters from MAK Polytechnic participated and performed excellently. Their performance was indeed commendable and demonstrated that TIMSAN places importance not only on religious and spiritual development but also on academic excellence, intellectual growth, confidence, and leadership skills.
This is one of the beautiful lessons we continue to learn through TIMSAN: being a student of the Tijaniyyah does not mean neglecting education or worldly responsibilities. Rather, knowledge should be pursued wherever it leads to goodness, wisdom, discipline, and service to humanity. Our religious and academic development should complement one another.
TOYCAC’26 also served as a platform for young Tijaniyyah students from across Oyo State to interact, establish new friendships, exchange ideas, and strengthen the spirit of unity. It reminded us that TIMSAN is not merely an association for gathering; it is a platform through which young Muslims can be nurtured intellectually, spiritually, morally, and socially.
We sincerely appreciate the organisers of TIMSAN Oyo State for putting together such an impactful programme and for creating an environment where young people can learn more about their faith while developing their academic and leadership abilities. We also appreciate our respected scholars for their valuable teachings, advice, guidance, and continuous efforts towards the growth and preservation of the Tijaniyyah tradition.
May Allah continue to strengthen TIMSAN, bless all its leaders, scholars, coordinators, and members, and make the association a means of bringing more young people closer to Allah and His beloved Messenger Muḥammad SAW.
May Allah increase us in beneficial knowledge, strengthen our Imān, beautify our character, and make us steadfast upon the Qur’an, Sunnah, and the authentic teachings of our beloved Prophet SAW.
May Allah preserve the Tijaniyyah Ṭarīqah, bless our beloved Shaykh Aḥmad Tijaniy RTA, elevate the ranks of all our righteous scholars and teachers, and allow us to benefit from their teachings.
May Allah unite the hearts of all TIMSAN members across Oyo State and beyond, bless our academic pursuits, grant us success in our studies and future careers, and make us beneficial to our families, communities, and humanity at large.
May Allah accept the efforts behind TOYCAC’26, reward everyone who contributed to its success, and grant us the ability to continue walking upon the path of love, knowledge, Dhikr, good character, and service to Islam.
