Cub Scout Pack #2023 – MAS Detroit

MAS Detroit Cub Scout Pack #2023

Building Character, Leadership, and Brotherhood

🌟 About the Program

Cub Scouts is a faith-based, outdoor adventure program designed to help young people grow, explore, and lead — all while living out values rooted in Islam.

We currently welcome boys up to 5th grade and above, including 6th graders for this year prior to launching a Scouts BSA Troop in the near future.

But it’s not just for kids — Cub Scouting is a family program. Parents and guardians play an active role in every part of the experience, from leading activities to organizing events. Scouting is a shared journey that strengthens families while developing confident, capable young Muslims.

🌙 Why Join Cub Scouts at MAS Detroit?

Tarbiyah Through Action: Teaches values like honesty, service, and discipline through practical experiences
Family-Centered: Parents don’t just drop off — they volunteer, lead, and grow with their children
Real-World Skills: Hikes, camping, badge work, STEM activities, and community service projects
Islamic Environment: Activities scheduled around prayer times with halal food options at events
Leadership Development: Opportunities for youth to take on responsibilities and lead their peers

The Scout Law: A Scout is Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent.

Each of these values aligns beautifully with Islamic principles and is explored in-depth in MAS’s tarbiyah resource:
