This revised edition is ideal for 7- to 8-year-olds, second or third-grade students, who are in their second or third year in a formal Islamic class. This book builds on the knowledge base of the Level 1 book, with an additional emphasis on introducing the basics of Islam.
All lessons are presented thematically in distinct units. Unit 1 focuses on the Creator and His message. This unit answers questions about Allāh, Islam, faith, and the Qur’ān. Unit 2 covers topics on our worship-focusing on the five pillars of Islam. Unit 3 covers the stories of some of the Messengers. Unit 4 covers some other topics about Islam that are relevant for students in this age group. An early understanding of some of the basics of Islam is presented in this unit. Unit 5 describes properadab (manners) andakhlaq (character) learned from the Qur’ān and authenticsunnah of the Messengerﷺ .
As with theLevel 1 book, each lesson begins with a coloring page. The coloring time primes young students for the lesson and eases them into it. The attention span of children is small; therefore, short paragraphs introduce two or three concepts. This is followed by an in-class review section to incorporate short breaks and reinforce learning. Some homework is included in the book, however, schools and parents are encouraged to buy a separate workbook that has several more test questions and chapter-based activities.
