Period 1: Before beginning the New Year's work revise the previous years attributes of Allah that were learnt. Now go on to teach the first lesson, te The Creator (Al-Khalig) by posing questions to the chil- dren. The ustaad should bring along:a fruit/s and a vegetable (ie things children are familiar with) and ask them some questions like « Who made this apple/ orange. e Who made alll the fruit? « Who made all the vegetables? « Who made alll the milk we drink? « Can you make any of these things? « Can anyone else make these things? « Who do you think made all these? All the questions should provide us with the answer that Allah Ta’ala is the Creator of all things. Period two: Revision of the previous periods work. Extend the lesson by now asking the children about the earth, sun moon, stars, sky.« Who made the earth? * Who made the sky?etc. Familarize the children with the words of nature such as moun- tains, river, oceans, trees, animals and human being themselves. Familarize them with the creator of alll this. Introduce the flash cards as the lesson progress. Now go on to the story of Ebrahim (AS), The stories are told to the children to emphasize the attributes being taught and to help the children fully understand this attrib- ute. Period 3: Repeat the story of Ebrahim (AS) and now question the pupils to bring home the following: Allah and Allah alone made alll things. Allah is very kind to us. Allah is the creator of all things Thus Allah is called “Al-khalig, the creator. PUPIL ACTIVITY: Colour in the words: Al-ilrallig The Creator During the period one or two ask the children to bring different leaves, flowers etc to the class to show and discuss with the others. The ustaad should point out how wonderfully these are made. These are examples of the beauty of Allah's creation.
