Noor Al Islam: Level 6

This book has five educational units, each containing three integrated lessons designed to reinforce the core principles of Islam. The lessons cover topics in ‘Aqidah (creed), Fiqh and ‘Ibadah (acts of worship), Seerah (the Prophet’s biography), and Islamic Adab (manners), all presented in an engaging style appropriate for the intended educational level. The topics covered are:

⦁ ‘Aqidah (Creed): Learners explore the beautiful names and attributes of Allah ﷻ, such as At-Tawwāb (The Acceptor of Repentance), Ar-Raḥīm (The Merciful), Al-Ḥayy (The Ever-Living), Al-Qayyūm (The Sustainer), Al-Ḥakīm (The All-Wise), and Al-Khabīr (The All-Aware). These lessons nurture deep faith in Allah’s mercy, wisdom, and greatness, and strengthen the learner’s belief in the Hereafter and divine decree, while instilling confidence in Allah’s justice and care.

⦁ Fiqh and ‘Ibadah (acts of worship): This section is introduced through relatable, real-life contexts. Topics include personal hygiene and purification, the Sunnah of Fitrah (natural disposition), Islamic guidelines on what is lawful and unlawful in food, clothing, and adornment, as well as environmental stewardship. These lessons promote self-discipline and encourage consistent application of righteous conduct in daily life.

⦁ Qur’an: Learners engage with selected verses from Surat Qaf, Adh-Dhariyat, An-Najm, Al-Waqi‘ah, and Al-Hashr, along with its simplified tafsir. The verses emphasize key themes such as Allah’s power to create and resurrect, the purpose behind the creation of jinn and humans, the value of striving over reliance, the urgency of doing good, rewards for the righteous, the heart-softening impact of the Qur’an, and learning about Allah through His names and attributes. These lessons deepen learners’ conscious connection to the Qur’an and its teachings.

⦁ Hadith: This section presents authentic narrations that emphasize core values. Examples include the hadith, “The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer…” and “Avoid the seven destructive sins…”. These hadiths guide learners toward righteous actions, strengthen their connection to teachings of the Prophet ﷺ, and cultivate a balanced Islamic character rooted in love for Allah and His Messenger ﷺ.

⦁ Seerah (the Prophet’s biography): Delivered through engaging storytelling, this theme highlights noble examples from the life of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, including his praiseworthy qualities, his deep love for others, and the virtue of his noble descendants. These stories help reinforce positive role models and instill love, respect, and admiration for the Prophet ﷺ in the hearts of learners.

Each lesson concludes with a simple assessment designed to measure comprehension, encourage critical thinking, and promote practical application through carefully selected questions and activities. In addition, each unit ends with an educational Islamic story—drawn from the Seerah or Islamic history—that embodies one of the key Islamic values, reinforcing the concepts in the learner’s mind through a purposeful narrative approach.
