Lesson 1
Life 1400 years ago
Dear Muslim child, close your eyes and imagine life 1400 years ago in the desert of Ara-
bia. Life at that time was very different, with no internet, phones, television, not even
refrigerators, nor cars, not even bicycles! The houses were made of materials found in
nature like mud, dry grass, water, and palm leaves.
If people needed to travel, they had to walk with their own feet or ride an animal. They
either grew their own food or bought food at outdoor markets. There were no grocery
stores stocked with frozen foods, packaged breads nor chocolate treats.
Our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was born during this time in the
desert. In Makkah, a city in what we now call The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Draw or write about the life at the time of the Prophet Sallallaahu
'alayhi wa sallam
Reflection Prompt
Would you like to live at the time? Why or Why not?
What would you like and what wouldn’t you like if you lived at that time?

Lesson 2
The map of Makkah
Look at the map below. Can you find the Kaaba, dear Muslim child?
It is in the city of Makkah. The city that millions of Muslims travel to for Hajj or Umrah.
It is also the city our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was born in.

Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam

Our prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam is not just the prophet for Arabs, he is the
last prophet sent by Allah. He is the prophet for all mankind, whether you are from Australia, Chi-
na, Canada, Pakistan, Morocco, Somalia, Turkey or anywhere else in the world. Prophet Muhammad
sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was sent to advise and warn you about this life, the day of judge-
ment and the Hereafter.
Map Connection
Find your country on a globe or world map. Find Saudi Arabia on the same globe or map.
What direction do you pray? Why?
Yes, Allah ordered all Muslims to pray towards the Kaaba, even if you are hundreds or
thousands of kilometers away.

Lesson 3
A Prophet’s job
Dear Muslim child, is to teach people to worship only Allah and not worship anything else
so they can go to Jannah. All prophets taught their people to worship only Allah alone, but
they had different rules to live by and different miracles according to the people they were
sent to. Some prophets were given books these prophets are called messengers. Our Prophet
Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was also a messenger. What is the name of the
book sent to him?
The Quran is right. Give yourself a high five!
Whenever we say, hear, or read Prophet Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah or Rasool Allah
we say: sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam.
We receive so many benefits for saying sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Let us discover just a
few of the many blessings we gain. On the day of judgement, Prophet Muhammad sallal-
laahu ‘alayhi wa sallam will intercede for you, which means Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu
‘alayhi wa sallam will make dua’ for you by Allah’s allowance. It will be wonderful to have
the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam make dua’ for us! Even now Allah will give you
ten blessings for every blessing you say for Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sal-
lam. There are many more reasons including increasing your good deeds and erasing your bad
deeds. It is a very easy way to gain Allah’s rewards!

Lesson 4
Prophet Ibrahim Alayhi As-Salam
Dear Muslim child, did you know Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was the
great, great, great, great... grandchild of Prophet Ibrahim Alayhi As-Salaam?
Let us learn a little bit about the Prophet Muhammad’s sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam family
connections.
Ibrahim Alayhi As-Salaam was ordered by Allah to leave his wife Hajar in the desert near
two mountains, Safa and Marwa. He left her alone with their baby son, Ishmael. It was a
difficult test for her. There were no stores or people around, but she trusted Allah.
Without a food or a water source to nourish herself or her son Ishmael Alayhi As-Salaam.
They quickly ran out of water and Ishmael Alayhi As-Salaam began to cry from thirst and
hunger. Hajar ran to Mount Safa climbing up in the hot sun looking for any sign of travellers or
a water source. She saw nothing so she ran to Mount Marwa and climbed to the top looking
desperately for any help. She ran back and forth seven times each time desperately hoping
for help to feed her baby and herself.
Dear Muslim child how do you think Hajar felt running back and forth looking for water?
Suddenly, from below Ishmail’s feet a water spring began to gush. Allah had gifted Hajar and
Ishmael AS water. This water well still runs today with the blessed water of Zamzam. Zam-
zam water is a blessing and mercy from Allah not only for Hajar and Ishmael but even us.
Given the chance to drink Zamzam water dear Muslim child, make dua’ and drink.
The new source of water brought people to the area who settled, building houses forming a
city. Hajar and Ishmael Alayhi As-Salaam were no longer alone. Prophet Ibrahim AS would
come and visit his family. When Ishmael grew up, Ibrahim Alayhi As-Salaam was ordered to
build the Kaaba with Ishmael Alayhi As-Salaam who was also a prophet.

Lesson 4
Prophet Ibrahim Alayhi As-Salam
They build the Kaaba together and made dua’ for people and their
future children for generations to worship Allah and visit His house the
Kaaba. Prophet Muhammad’s family remained in that same city until his
birth. Kaaba means cube in Arabic.
Dear Muslim Child, Colour the Cube Shape!
Reflection:
Have you ever been in a situation where you were scared
and unsure of what to do?
What can we do when we are scared?

Lesson 6
The Birth of Prophet Muhammad
Peace be upon him
Now we know about Muhammad’s relationship to Prophet Ibrahim Alayhi As-Salaam let us
learn about his birth many years later but in the same city Makkah where Ibrahim and
Ismael built the Kaaba. Our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was born
in Makkah in the Year of the Elephant. Allah tells us the story of the Elephant in the
Quran.
His father, Abdullah died before he was born. His mother’s name was Aminah.
Aminah sent baby Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to live in the desert with a
wet nurse named Halimah. Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam went to live healthi-
er in the clean desert air and learn good Arabic.
Halimah’s family was poor. Her baby was hungry. Her animals were weak because her
plants were not getting enough water. After she took baby Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi
wa sallam to nurse and care for him, her life was greatly improved!
Her animals and plants grew healthy and strong. She had more than enough milk for
baby Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam and her own son. She was very happy
with Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
Dear Muslim child, why do you think her life changed?

That is right Allah blessed her! Alhamdulillah!
Draw plants and animals that you may find in the desert

Reflection prompt:
If things are not going well in our lives what are some things we can do to improve?
And how many a creature carries not its [own] provision. Allah provides for it and for
you. And He is the Hearing, the Knowing. {Quran Al-Ankaboot 29:60}
Reflection prompt:
Dear Muslim child, how does Allah provide for the sheep and other creatures?
How does Allah provide for you dear Muslim child?
Help the sheep get to the grass!

Lesson 7
Miracle in the Desert
While Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was still a young boy of 4 or 5 years
the angel Jibreel came down and opened the chest of Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sal-
lam.
The angel took out the heart of Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam and washed it in
Zamzam water, removing any evil from the heart. His heart was put back and Muhammad sal-
lallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was left with a mark on his chest, where it had been opened. His
playmates related the story to Halimah.
What would happen, dear Muslim child, if someone were to come and open your chest, take your
heart, and wash it? Why was the prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, not harmed?
Colour the heart
Circle the correct words:

The angel Jibreel | Mikaeal came down and opened the chest | drawer of Muhammad sallal-
laahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. The heart of Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, was washed in
ocean | zamzam water. Sand | Evil was removed from the heart of Muhammad. His playmates |
siblings related the story to Halimah.

Lesson 8
Returned to his mother
Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam returned from the desert to live with his mother
soon after his heart had been cleaned. His mother took him on a journey to Yathrib (Madinah)
to visit family. Just like you dear Muslim child may, go and visit your family in other places.
On the way back to Makkah, his mother, Aminah became sick and died. His grandfather, Ab-
dul-Muttalib cared for Muhammad for two years, then he also died. After his grandfather’s
death, Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was cared for and protected by his paternal
uncle Abu Talib for forty years.
Dear Muslim child, how did Allah always provide care for Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam? Can you depend on Allah’s care too? When we lose people, we love and go through
hard problems in life it is okay to be sad, but we also must understand Allah still loves us
and will continue to provide for us. Allah is Ar-Razzaq.
Umar ibn al-Khattab reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said
“If you were to rely upon Allah with reliance due to him, he would provide for you just as he
provides for the birds. They go out in the morning with empty stomachs and return full.”

Lesson 9
Al Ameen, The Trustworthy
Before Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam became a prophet, a great flood broke the
walls of the Kaaba. The people of Makkah rebuilt the Kaaba, dividing the work among the family
tribes. The work was going well until it came time to place the Black Stone in its proper place.
Everyone wanted to do it because of the great importance of the Black Stone. The arguing
continued for four or five days, with people getting angrier and angrier they were threatening
to fight with swords. It was suggested that the next person to enter would decide. By the will
of Allah, the next person to enter was Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Everyone was
very happy because he was known as Al-Ameen (the trustworthy). With great wisdom Muhammad
sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam spread a cloth on the ground and placed the stone in the middle.
One representative from each tribe helped lift the cloth to the proper location where Muham-
mad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam placed it with his own two hands. By having all the tribes
cooperate Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam stopped the fighting. When we all cooper-
ate and work together, we have peace, and we can all feel good.
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbaas said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah
be upon him) said: “The Black Stone came down from Paradise.”
(Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 877; al-Nasaa’i, 2935. The hadeeth was classed as saheeh by al-Tir-
midhi).
Have a look at the pictures below:
Put a big check mark on the picture showing cooperation.
When we do not work together, we can feel angry, frustrated, and sad.

Under the care of his uncle Abu Talib, Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam grew up.
He was known by all the people of Makkah to have very good manners. He was known to
be honest and trustworthy. A rich businesswoman named Khadija asked Muhammad sallal-
laahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to marry her because of his honesty and excellent manners. They
were married and had four daughters and two sons together.

Muhammad spent time alone in the cave of Hira’ thinking. One very special occa-
sion the Angel Jibril came to Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.

Lesson 12
Waraqah
Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam ran home to his wife Khadija, who
comforted him. Khadija took Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to her
cousin, Waraqah, who was educated in religion. Waraqah informed them the an-
gel who visited Muhammad was the same one sent to Musa Alayhi As-Salaam.
Waraqah wished he would live to see Muhammad attacked by his people so he
could help Muhammad. Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam asked why his
people would attack him. Waraqah said all those who received revelation before
were treated badly by their people.
Waraqah wished he would live to support Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam but he was an old man. He died soon after his meeting with Muhammad
sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.

Lesson 13
Calling Quietly
In the beginning of his prophethood, Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam called

people to worship Allah in secret. The first believer was Khadija, his wife. Next was his
freed slave Zayd, then his cousin Ali and his best friend Abu Bakr. The first believers
were those closest to him. They knew how honest, kind, and sincere he was.
Muslims must love Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. They best way to show our
love for him is to follow his way of life, which we call his sunnah. Allah sent Prophet
Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to teach us the best way to live. We learn
from Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam how to worship Allah, obey our
parents, be honest and generous and many other good manners including remembering
Allah through out our day. Remembering Allah is very important, it protects us from evil,
helps us be good and feel happy.

Come to Salat. Come to Success
One day the angel Jibreel came to Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam in the form of
a man. The angel showed Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam how to perform wudu’.
Then the angel showed the prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam all the positions of salat
and what should be said in each movement. Imagine, dear Muslim child, your prayer is the
done in the same way Jibreel showed Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
Amazing! Which why it’s very important we learn the correct way to perform wudu’ and
salat. After all, dear Muslim child, angels can only obey Allah. The way the angel Jibreel
taught Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam is the way Allah wants us to pray.

Lesson 15
Open Calling
After three years of calling people to Islam in secret, Allah ordered Muhammad sallallaa-
hu ‘alayhi wa sallam to start calling all people openly. Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam obeyed Allah and began openly calling people to the One true god, Allah. One
day he stood on Mount As-Safa loudly calling the people of Makkah to listen to his
important message. He asked the people if they would believe him if he told them an
army was coming to destroy them
.
The people said, “Yes you are Al-Ameen the trustworthy.”
The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said, “I warn of an even greater danger, rescue
yourself from the fire by worshiping the One true god Allah”.
The Prophet’s uncle, Abu Lahab made fun of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam
and told people not to listen to Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Allah answered
Abu Lahab with the promise of his punishment in Surah Al-Masad.
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
The power of Abu Lahab will perish, and he will perish. (1)
His wealth and gains will not exempt him. (2) He will be plunged in flaming Fire, (3)
And his wife, the wood-carrier, (4)
Will have upon her neck a halter of palm-fiber. (5)

Lesson 16
Muslims in Makkah
Once the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam started preaching openly many people
began to accept Islam. To enter Islam people must make Shahadah. The Shahadah is the
first pillar of Islam. We must believe in our hearts, say the Shahadah with our tongue and
act on it by obeying Allah and His messenger sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
There is no god worthy of worship accept Allah Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam
is the messenger of Allah.
Many of the poor, slaves and weak people were among the first to accept Islam.
The Quraysh did not like it at all. They began to torture the believers. The Quraysh insult-
ed, beat, and dragged the believers over hot sand or hot coals.
The believers remained firm in their belief. They did not give up Islam to protect them-
selves from the harm of the Quraysh. They knew Allah is Al-‘Azeez the Most Powerful.
Whatever they suffered in this life was temporary but life in Paradise or Hellfire is forever.

Reflection prompt
Dear Muslim child, should we stop worshipping Allah if people laugh at or
try to harm us?

Lesson 17
The Disbelievers want to destroy Islam
Allah gave strength to the Muslims of Makkah with two new Muslims. Two very
well-known men from Quraysh became Muslim, Hamzah the Prophet’s Uncle
and Umar bin Al-Khattab. The Muslims were growing in numbers and getting
stronger. The disbelieving Quraysh became very worried. They did not want
Islam to spread.
Although the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam only taught people to

worship Allah and treat other people well, be honest and trustworthy, just
as we learn today. He sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam had enemies who did not
want him to succeed. Just as we today have enemies who do not want to see
Muslims succeed. There are many examples of how our beloved prophet sallal-
laahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was mistreated.
We will just learn about one, which was particularly hurtful to him and his
daughter. Abu Jahl a big bully, was sitting with some of his friends, while
Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was praying at the Kaaba.
Abu Jahl encouraged one of his friends to put the guts of a camel on the
back of the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam while in sujo-
od. Imagine, dear Muslim child, how heavy and yucky camel guts would feel, if
placed on your back! Abu Jahl and his friends started laughing at the Prophet
sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam remained in sujood until his daugh-

ter Fatimah came and removed the camel guts from the Prophet’s back. The
Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam remained calm and made dua’ in this
terrible moment.

Lesson 17
The Disbelievers want to destroy Islam
Choose the correct response!

Abu Jahl was...
a) a good friend.
b) a big bully
c) Fatimah’s father
If we see or hear people making fun of Muslims or Islam how should

we react?
a) Laugh along with them.
b) Hit or kick them.
c) Speak truthfully, remain calm and make dua’ to Allah.
Reflection prompt:
Have you ever been made fun of or bullied? How did it feel?
What can we do when that happens?
Should we make fun of or bully other people?

Lesson 18
A Ban
The ban was meant to join against the Muslims. The disbelievers agreed with each other not
to buy from, sell to, or mix with the Muslims to punish them and them to force a change.
Rasulullah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, his family and the Muslims were forced to live in a
valley away from everyone. The ban was very difficult, they were not allowed to buy or sell
anything. They soon ran out of food. They were very hungry. They ate leaves and cooked dry
animal skin for soup. Many Muslims became sick. The children cried.
Some of the Quraysh wanted to stop the ban because they felt sorry for the Muslims. Abu
Jahl went to the Kaaba to show the people the written ban. He came out with a small
paper with only the words Bismillah. The words of the ban had been eaten by small insects.
The ban was lifted.
Reflection prompt
Dear Dear Muslim child how would you feel if you had to eat leaves and soup made
from animal skin?
There are Dear Muslim child, children around the world are suffering. Is there anything
we can do to help?
Can you spot the 5 differences?

Lesson 19
Death of Loved Ones
Not long after the ban had been lifted the Prophet’s Uncle Abu Talib died. The Prophet sallal-
laahu ‘alayhi wa sallam tried to get Abu Talib before his death to say the shahadah, but Abu
Talib refused to give up his religion.
Abu Talib died a disbeliever. He protected the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam so he will
be punished in the shallow fire of Hell. The least punishment of all disbelievers.
Soon after the death of Abu Talib, Khadijah the beloved wife of Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu
‘alayhi wa sallam also died. She believed in the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam when no
one else did. She was the mother of six of his children.
The angel Jibreel sent her the message that she would be in a palace of jewels in Paradise.
These two deaths very close together were very saddening for the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi
wa sallam.

Lesson 20
At Ta’if
After the death of Abu Talib, the Quraysh became to hurt the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam even more.
The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam decided to try to teach people outside of Makkah.
He went to the city of At-Ta’if. He talked to the leaders of At-Ta’if about worshiping only
Allah. They laughed at him and sent boys to throw stones at the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi
wa sallam. After the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam sat under a tree and prayed to
Allah. An angel came to him and offered to smash the people of At-Ta’if between two moun-
tains.
The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said, “No, I hope Allah will guide their children to
worship Allah alone.”

An angel said he would not smash the people between two mountains.
The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam hoped their children would
worship only Allah.

Lesson 21
Al-Isra and Al-Miraj
One very special night our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam went on a miraculous
journey with the angel Jibreel. The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam rode a special creature
called Buraq. The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam rode Buraq first to Masjid Al-Aqsa. He led
all the other prophets in prayer. Then on the back of Buraq, the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) flew to Paradise. In paradise Allah ordered the Muslims to pray five times a day. Allah,
Ar-Rahman, Ar-Raheem gives us the reward for fifty prayers, when we pray only five times. When the
Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam returned the next day and shared his experience, Muslims
with strong faith believed but non-Muslims mocked him saying such travel was impossible.
Let us think about some of the amazing creatures Allah has created in this world dear Muslim child.
Monarch butterflies fly from Canada to Mexico with no map or GPS eating only milkweed. An earth
worm can be cut and divided into separate new worms. Honeybees can communicate with specific
movements to direct other bees to the best flowers. Beavers dig long underground canals they can
travel through during winter even when the lakes freeze into ice. Sea turtles swim thousands of
miles and can live for over hundred years. Is it hard to belief Allah created Buraq which travelled
faster than lighting to take Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam on a spectacular journey? Not
at all.
Allah has so much Mercy and Generosity towards us. Every time we pray one obligatory salah He
rewards for ten salat. When we pray our five daily salat we get reward for fifty prayers.
Circle the number of prayers counted each time we pray.

Fajr, Dhuhr, ‘Asr, Maghreb or ‘Isha

Lesson 22
The Treaty of ‘Aqabah
Important men from Yathrib came to Makkah to visit the Kaaba. They heard Prophet
Muhammad’s message. They accepted Islam. Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam sent Mus’ab Ibn ‘Umayr to teach people in Yathrib about Islam. Many people in
Yathrib became Muslim. Many of them visited Makkah where they met and agreed to
protect and defend the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam and his followers if they
came to Yathrib.
This agreement is called the Treaty of ‘Aqabah.
Activity!
List or draw pictures of things the travelers would need. Remember they must travel by
foot or with animals. There were no restaurants or hotels.
They had to carry even thing they needed for the long journey.

Lesson 23
Hijra
Allah ordered the Muslims to leave Makkah and migrate to Yathrib. It was not easy for many of the
Muslims. They often had to leave behind family, their houses, their land, and wealth. When they
arrived in Yahrib, they did not have homes or wealth.
When the Prophet arrived, he changed the name of the city to Madinah. As the new leader of
the city, he had to bring the Muhajirun from Makkah together with the new Muslims of Madinah. To
strengthen their relationships and help the Muhajirun resettle the prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam paired one Muhajirun with one person from Madinah. The Muslims of Madinah became known
as the Ansar, the Helpers.
The Ansar shared their homes, farms, and wealth evenly by sharing half of what they owned with
the Muhajirun allowing both groups to live well in obedience to Allah and prophet Muhammad sal-
lallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
If this was an Ansar's property:

Circle in blue how many coins would he share with a Muhajirun.
Circle in red how many camels would he share with a Muhajirun.
Circle in green how many trees would he share with a Muhajirun.
Reflection prompt:
Think of ways you dear Muslim child can share your belongings to
please Allah.
