Manareena Umairah Binti Muhzan

Manareena Umairah Binti Muhzan's inspiring journey began at CIC Queenspark, KB, where she attended from ages three to seven. At CIC, she developed strong values of discipline, sincerity, and a love for learning. Early experiences in public speaking, stage performances, and Quranic study built her confidence and prepared her to face challenges with resilience. One of her proudest moments was completing the Quran at age six, a milestone celebrated by her teachers and family alike. Reflecting on her time at CIC, Manareena credits the nurturing environment for igniting her belief in herself and laying the foundation for her future success.

Now a Bachelor of Laws (Honours) student at University Malaya, Manareena has excelled academically, achieving 10 A's in SPM and graduating her Foundation in Law with a perfect CGPA of 4.0. She has also taken leadership roles as Head of Bureau in multiple college clubs and actively volunteers in community programs.

Muhammad Akmal Danial bin Asrin
Story 3 · CIC Puchong

From First Prayers to First Class: The Journey of Muhammad Akmal Danial.

Muhammad Akmal Danial bin Asrin

Muhammad Akmal Danial bin Asrin's journey began at CIC Puchong in 2002, where a single year left an imprint that would last a lifetime. What stayed with him most was not just what he learned, but how he learned it — performing solat together, voices reciting in harmony, and a sense of unity that made faith feel alive rather than taught. A teacher's simple praise of his English ability became a spark of confidence that quietly shaped his worldview and guided his direction.

Akmal continued his academic journey at IIUM Pagoh, pursuing Arabic for International Communication. Today, at 27, he stands at the front of a classroom as a teacher at Abedeen Academy International School, guiding students in Arabic and Islamic Studies — and serving as an educator under the CIC Group of Companies. The student has become the teacher. To current CIC students, his advice is simple: "Enjoy your moments in CIC, practice your prayers well, and be good to your teachers."
