Islamic History Book Taleemul taareekh - Grade 3: Hadhrat Moosa (alayhis salaam) Hadhrat Isa (alayhi

INTRODUCTION

The Qur-aan Shareef discusses many incidents of past nations in great length. The reason for mentioning these incidents is

so that we may take a lesson from them; to stay away from those things that brought ruin to them as well as implement and

apply those aspects that made them successful. Many stories of the Ambiyaa (alayhimus salaam) are discussed in detail in

the Qur-aan Shareef to strengthen our hearts.

History has always been one of the key tools for any nation reaching the peaks of success.

This subject, if taught correctly, can become the most enjoyable subject for any child. On the contrary, if it is just read out

without properly explaining the events and the lessons behind each event, it can also become the most boring and difficult

subject for a learner.

Stories of Ambiyaa (alayhimus salaam) are discussed in this book and each story has great lessons for us to learn.

Teachers should try their best to be real, alive and vivid when teaching this subject to make the lesson as enjoyable

as possible for the learners.

May Allah Ta'ala accept our broken efforts for His Deen and crown them with success. Aameen.

• Come well prepared for each lesson.

• Summarise the previous lesson before commencing a new lesson.

• Introduce the new lesson to the class by asking them general questions about the new lesson.

• Ensure that your lesson is properly time framed.

• If you cannot take the children to Badr, bring Badr to the children.

• Do not just read the text out of a text book. Be active, full of life and expressive when teaching a lesson.

• Summarise the lesson with quick oral questions.

• Make a written note of any weak areas found in the lesson so that you can rectify it at a later stage.

Note: History is such that many a time, the dates and names are forgotten. However, the morals and lessons learnt

continue to inspire us. Thus, we should aim to settle these lessons deep into the children's hearts.
