Mohamed Mubarak
Student at Ahlia School
The name of Bahraini student Mohammed Jasem shone brightly in the Arab Reading Challenge 2025, as he achieved a remarkable double accomplishment that is rare for someone his age. He first won the title of Champion of the Reading Challenge in the Kingdom of Bahrain, and then he continued his journey steadfastly, reaching the honor platform in Dubai, where he secured second place Arab-wide among thousands of participants from various countries.
Mohammed's journey was not merely a competition but a long path filled with a passion for books, analytical ability, and literary appreciation honed through his diverse readings. Between history, philosophy, literature, and science, he managed to build the character of a conscious reader who seeks not just victory but understanding, wisdom, and elevation.
In the final qualifiers in Dubai, Mohammed drew attention with his skillful dialogue, calm eloquence, and confidence that combine the innocence of a ten-year-old with the wisdom of adults, presenting an honorable model for both Bahraini and Arab readers. His Arab achievement was a natural culmination of a journey he began early, opening wide horizons for a cultural future.
