Knowledge is what we learn and then apply in our life every day.
You can learn new things at home from your parents, at the Mosque, in Madressa,
at school, and many other places.
There are some important things you must do when you are learning something:

O Lord! Increase my knowledge
Islam is the religion of Allah. Allah says in the Holy Qur'an in:
Sura Ali Imran verse 19: "Indeed the religion with Allah is Islam." (3:19)
All 124,000 Prophets, from Prophet Adam to Prophet Muhammad (S) taught the
people to believe in, obey and worship only One God.
In everything we do in our daily lives, we must make sure that our Niyyat for doing it,
is only to please Allah – i.e. Qurbatan ilallah.
For ANY good action – we should always think that we are doing this because Allah
is watching us and knows what we are doing at all times, and this action will make
Him pleased with us.
In the same way, if you have a teacher who is really really nice to us, we feel more
that we want to be a good student for them so they are proud of us, or if we have a
friend who is always really really nice to us and always gives us nice presents, we
want to keep them as a friend and make them like us more and give them gifts in
return, -- in the same way Allah loves us so so so much and has given us so many
things, we should want to do all the things that will make him pleased with us and be
good people so that he is pleased with us and proud of us.
Every morning we should think to ourselves that I want to be a good person today so
Allah is pleased with me (Qurbatan ilallah). During the day, before doing anything,
we should think to ourselves “Allah is watching me. Will he be pleased if I do this?”
If the answer is yes then we should do it because we want to please him.
If the answer is no then we should not do it.
I begin in the name of Allah the most kind the most merciful
ALLAH has blessed us with so many blessings and given us so much therefore we
should remember him before we start anything by saying:
ﻥ ﺍﻟﺭﱠﺤﻴﻡ
ﷲ ﺍﻟﺭﱠﺤﻤ ﹺ
ِ ﹺﺒﺴْ ﹺﻡ ﺍ
I begin in the name of Allah the most kind the most merciful.

Prophet Muhammad (S) has said that on the Day of Judgement there will be some
people who will have to go Jahannam because of their bad deeds.
However from these people there will be some who in the world always had the habit
of saying ÁæÎêYìj»A øÅ{ÀæYìj»A êÉé}¼»A øÁænøI before they did anything, or entered
anywhere.
When these people will be taken to Jahannam by the angel, they will be very sad but
they will say ÁæÎêYìj»A øÅ{ÀæYìj»A êÉé}¼»A øÁænøI before they enter the door of
He will say that He cannot let someone who takes His name enter Jahannam.
I BEGIN IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST KIND, THE MOST MERCIFUL.
Just as in a tree the roots are more important to the tree then the branches, so in
Islam the Usool is more important for our Faith then Furoo.
If we did not understand the Usool (roots) then our Faith would die because these
are basic beliefs of Islam.
Usul-e-din,

Oh my creatures on the earth!
Let us look at this Surah and try and understand how it explains that there is
no God except Allah.
Al-Ikhlas means “The Unity” this means that Suratul Ikhlaq describes the qualities of
Allah very well – and because it explains how and why there is only one God and
that is Allah, this Surah is sometimes called Tawhid.
When you truly rely on Allah for everything, you will not need
anyone else or be afraid of anyone else.
If a simple thing like my spinning wheel cannot turn without help how can it be
possible that the whole universe can operate
so efficiently without a driving force.
When the word Justice is used for Allah, it means that He keeps a balance
between the needs of all His creatures.
In the morning, they all prayed to Allah to increase His blessings to them.
That day, the thief wanted to go and rob the jeweller. Instead he fell ill and had to go
to the doctor.
The jeweller did not make much money at all that day, because it rained and all his
customers stayed at home.
The thief fell ill - so it seems that he was treated unfairly by Allah.
The doctor got an extra patient (the thief!) so it seems he was treated fairly by Allah.
The jeweller lost business because it rained, so it seems Allah treated him unfairly.
So was Allah Just to all of them? We see that fairness and unfairness does not
describe Adaalat fully. To understand it we must realise that Allah keeps a balance
between the needs of all His creatures.
The doctor did get blessings from Allah because he got an extra patient.
The thief did get blessings from Allah because his illness saved him from the sin of
stealing.
The jeweller did get blessings from Allah because even though he did not do much
business, he was not robbed.
So we see that Adaalat means that Allah is Just because He keeps a balance
between the needs of all His creatures.

We want to go to the Nature Trail to see all these animals, but we do not know our
way around. What should we do? We should get a guide to show us the right way
around the Nature Trail.
A Prophet is someone we can trust. He is an honest person whom Allah has chosen
to guide us. Allah has taught the Prophets to teach us which path to take in this
world and in the hereafter. Allah knows that the person He has chosen as Prophet is
an honest person who keeps away from all bad deeds.
Each Prophet brought the message of Allah in stages. How much they brought
depended on how much their people would be able to understand.
As the people developed and could understand more, Allah revealed more of the
message of Islam to them through the Prophet of their time.
It was not until the time of our Holy Prophet Muhammad (S) that Allah revealed the
whole message of Islam.
The Prophets usually had their new set of laws (Shari'ah) written into a book.
The Divine Book revealed to our Holy Prophet (S) is called Qur’an
Prophets are there to show us how to be good Muslims and to teach us just like
teachers. They are human like us, so that we can copy them, and they can be an
example for us.
But he was a very patient man, and never got angry with her.
One day, when the Holy Prophet (S) passed the old woman's
house, she did not throw rubbish on him.
He stopped and asked a neighbour why the old woman was not
there.
The neighbour told him the old woman was sick and in bed. So, the
Prophet went to see her, because it is good to visit people who are
ill.
When the old woman saw him, she thought he had come to
tell her off when she was too ill to shout back at him.
Prophet Muhammad (S) told the old woman that he had come
to see her because Allah tells us to look after people who are
ill.
The old woman was very surprised that the Prophet (S) was
so kind to her after she had been so mean to him. She decided right away to listen
to him and she became a Muslim saying:
ﷲ
ُ ﻻﺍ
ﻻ ﺍِﻟ َﻪ ِﺍ ﱠ
ﹶ There is no God except Allah.
ﷲ
ِ لﺍ
ُ ْﺴﻭ
ُ ُﻤﺤَ ﱠﻤﺩٌ ﺭﱠ Prophet Muhammad (S) is the messenger of Allah.
Just like a Prophet, the Imam must be the most perfect person in his time in
everything. Just like a builder who builds a building;
Imams are those who look after the religion just like the caretaker who looks after
the building.
Imams must be chosen by Allah. They must not do anything that displeases Allah
and they must also be able to perform miracles.
Our last Imam (A), Imam Muhammad Mahdi (A) is alive and is with us all the time.
He guides us but it is up to us to remember him and make him happy.
At the end of every week what we have done during the week is checked by
our Imam (A). All our good deeds make him happy but all our bad deeds
- stand up
- put our right hand on our head AND
- bow our head down, to show our respect for him.
Our Holy Prophet (S) has said that any Muslim who dies without
knowing the Imam of his time dies the death of a non-believer.
- chosen by Allah,
- Ma'sum - not commit any sin, not even by mistake.
- able to perform miracles
- the person at that time with the best Akhlaq and the most Knowledge
Pray on time
ACITIVITY: Draw what else you think you can do that will make OUR Imam
happy.
It is the day that we will account for all our actions in this world.
"It is He who has created death and life, that He may test which of you does
the best of deeds…" (67:2)
- Allah did not create us without purpose, so that when we die that is the end of
us.
- Divine Justice. Not all good can be repaid in this world. E.g. building a
Mosque, teaching a child about Allah– these actions are called Thawaabe
Jaari
The Hereafter:
We are told here that no matter how wonderful we think Heaven is going to be, it will
be better. We will never be able to imagine how wonderful it really will be.
Everyone was made in this world to go to Heaven. If we always do what Allah has
told us to do and stay away from whatever Allah has told us to stay away from, then,
we will all end up in Jannat.

Some of the people, amongst A,B,C,D and E, are Kafirs and cannot seem to
find the direct road to heaven. Find out who they are and write down about 3
things that they could do to help them reach Jannat.

Things that are Najis will make other things Najis when:
Pig Dog
Mutlaq Water
- Is water that has not changed in colour, taste or
smell.
- Can make a Najis thing Pak
- E.g. Tap water
Mudhaf Water
- Cannot make a Najis thing Pak
- Becomes Najis when in contact with Najasaat
- E.g. Lemon Juice
Before we get ready for performing Wudhu and offering our Salaat we must
make sure that our body and clothes are not just clean but more importantly
that they should be Pak
When there is dirt on our body or clothes and we wash it – we say our body or
clothes are clean – BUT – when something Najis comes into our contact there
is a special way to remove the Najasat so that our body or clothes are not only
clean but that they are PAK
To make body or cloth Pak when it has become Najis with Urine.
BODY CLOTHES
Sleeping Becoming
unconscious

Hassan and Husain were praying their Salaat. Write down all the things that
they must not do, otherwise their Salaat will be Batil.
This is really
funny… I think I
just swallowed Hey, don’t
my chewing gum! push me!
but we shouldn’t
be talking…shh…
From the picture above, the things that break their Salaat are:

Allah has set the timings for Salaat at different times of the day to remind us
all the time that He is there to help us – all we have to do is ask.
Fajr Salaat:
Dhohrain Salaat:
Maghribain Salaat:
From the time the sun sets (the redness in the sky disappears) up to Midnight.
Write the timings for each Salaat for the whole week:
Fajr
Dhohr
Asr
Maghrib
Eisha
Now write the timings when you prayed each Salaat during this week:
Fajr
Dhohr
Asr
Maghrib
Eisha
Before you do any action you should make the habit of doing Niyyat, even if the
action is a necessity, E.g. eating
And your Niyyat should be that, whatever you are doing, for the pleasure of Allah -
"Qurbatan ilallah".
In this way you will get Thawaab for all these actions.
E.g.: Salaat
To see if your Niyyat is "Qurbatan ilallah" look at how you pray your Salaat
when you are at home on your own and when you are at Mosque where
everyone can see you. If there is a difference in the way you pray then your
Niyyat is NOT only "Qurbatan ilallah".
Draw below what the man was doing for the dog.
Why did the man not get any Thawaab for His Salaat ?

Ta'qibaat is the recitation of Qur'an, Du'as, Tasbeeh and Ziyarat after the Salaat.
The Tasbeeh that we recite after our Salaat is known as the Tasbeeh of Bibi Fatima
Az-Zahra (A) because her father, our Holy Prophet, Prophet Muhammad (S),
gave her this as a present.
The Salaat is like a beautiful flower and the Tasbeeh of Bibi Fatima Az-Zahra (A)
gives that beautiful flower a beautiful smell.
So after every Salaat we should say the Tasbeeh of Bibi Fatima (A) because we
want our Salaat to be like a beautiful flower with a beautiful smell.
jäJô·òA åÉé}¼»òA -
å Allah is the Greatest - 34 times
After you have recited the Tasbeeh, you should go down to Sajdah to thank Allah for
everything He has given you and to ask Allah for whatever you wish.
Some of the things which break Wudhu (make Wudhu Batil) are:
If after performing Wudhu you go to the toilet to pass urine or stool, your Wudhu is
batil and you have to do Wudhu again.
If you have performed Wudhu and then pass gas from the stomach, your Wudhu is
batil.
3. Sleep.
If you sleep after having done Wudhu, your Wudhu is batil. eg. If you sleep at night
after doing Wudhu you cannot pray your Fajr Salaat without redoing your Wudhu
because your Wudhu became batil when you slept.
4. Unconsciousness.
If after having done Wudhu you lose consciousness (eg. fainting) your Wudhu is
batil.
WORKSHEET 16
Talib is doing Wudhu. Write in each circle the things he must remember not to do,
otherwise his wudhu will became Batil.

Fasting means that we should not eat or drink from Subhe Sadiq which is also
called true dawn which is about just before the time of Fajr Salaat till Maghrib
time which is just after sunset.
Amongst the blessings of this month is the special night called the Night of
Qadr, this night is special because the Holy Qur’an was revealed on this night.
In this month, every action, whether good or bad, carries more weight.
For example:
However, Sawm does not mean just staying hungry and thirsty throughout the day,
but also to stay away from Haraam things as well.
For example:
