1 JUSTICE Islamic Activity Lessons Page 1

2 JUSTICE On the day of Judgement, those people who were ust in ruling will be shaded under the throne of Allah. The people who were ust will be seated on pulpits made of light, in the presence of Allah. When a nation is ruled with ustice, the effects are felt all around. The effects are even felt by animals. One moment in the life of a ust ruler is better than sixty years of worship. In Muslim history, even high profile rulers were brought to court to answer charges made by common people. On the day of Judgement, Allah will mete out ustice to the oppressed - oppressors will be brought to ustice. Islamic Activity Lessons Page 2

3 CHARACTER Islam teaches us good manners. The Prophet (pbuh) said, "The best of you are those who have the best manners." The Prophet(pbuh) is our role model so we should try to be like him. We should take his advice on all matters. We must always be honest and tell the truth. We should never lie or deceive anyone. We must be trustworthy. We must be kind and helpful to all. We mustn't look down on others nor think we are superior to them. We must show respect to our parents by being helpful and kind to them. We should listen to them and obey them. We can't bully, hit or insult anyone. These qualities are not from Islam and Allah doesn't like the unust. Islamic Activity Lessons Page 3

6 goodness How do we become good? Here is a clue. Whenever we say anything, it must be true. When we play outside, we must not fight. When we talk to others, we say what is right. We must try to be friendly and never rude and also be happy and in a good mood. We must be trustworthy so we don t steal and for suffering of others we must feel. We must help both our mum and dad and never hurt others or make them sad. We must listen to what the teachers say; to the path of goodness, this is the way. Islamic Activity Lessons Page 6

7 bad boy This is about a boy, who was very bad, who made his parents feel very sad. He was very lazy and would wake up late. He would gulp his food, not emptying the plate. He would not share even his smallest toy and would bully his brother, a little boy. When his mother told him to go to bed, he would ignore everything that she said. Wanting a toy, he would kick and scream and didn't care about others, it would seem. He would not wash so was covered in grime and was greedy and selfish all the time.

10 al qur'an and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from ustice. Be ust: that is closer to piety (Qur'an 5:8) This Qur'an Ayat tells us to always be ust. If we are ust then this will bring us closer to Allah and will help us be good Muslims. When we deal with people we should be fair to them. It might be that they are enemies or have been bad to us in the past. We should not let this influence our dealings with them. If we are in a position of power, we should not abuse this by showing favour to one person over another because they might be a friend or relative. INTERESTING FACTS In the books of seerah, we find that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was a very fair and ust person. It was through these qualities that people saw the good character and conduct of Muhammad (pbuh) and became Muslims. At the conquest of Makkah, people saw the mercy and kindness of Muhammad (pbuh) and thousands of people accepted Islam. We too should study seerah and learn a valuable lesson from this great man.

12 al hadith The best struggle (is of) that person who says the words of truth in the presence of a tyrant ruler. Abu Dawud This Hadith advises that we must be truthful in all matters. Even if we will get into trouble or hardship because of this, we must still speak the truth. Life is a struggle to Abu improve Dawud ourselves and our deen. In this case, it is the best struggle because you are speaking the truth amidst the falsehood. Sometimes it might be easier to tell a small lie but it is more righteous to tell the truth. HADITH PARTS There are 3 different parts to a Hadith 1.The Sanad is the chain of narration - from whom to whom the information was passed until it came to the collector. 2.The Matn is the actual text of the Hadith. 3.The collector is the scholar who recorded the Hadith. These three parts of the Hadith are scrutinised by the scholars before writing them down in their books. Telling the truth has great reward from Allah on the Day of Judgement. You will get more blessing and reward when you tell the truth in a difficult situation. Question: Why do we need hadith? The Prophet (pbuh) lived his life according to Islam. The Ahadith give us guidance in many aspects of our personal and social life as well as a deeper understanding of the Qur an. They are a valuable learning tool. Islamic Activity Lessons Page 12

13 be a'mazed Abdullah ust heard the Adhan for Salah. Get him to the masid as quick as possible before Jamaat. The Adhan is the call to prayer. It is used to let the people know that the time for prayer has started and to hurry to the Masid. The Mu'azin reads the Adhan out in a loud voice so that people can hear it. Just before the main congregational prayer (amaat), the Mu'azin recites the Iqamat. DO YOU KNOW THE ADHAN AND THE IQAMAT? Islamic Activity Lessons Page 13

14 Muhammad bin Qasim Back in the history of Islam, the Muslim empire was enormous. Hundreds of thousands of people had accepted Islam causing the Muslim world to spread from Arabia into many different countries. Within a short space, the Islamic world had spread into Africa and Asia so there were Muslims of many different backgrounds, colours and languages. However, there were many problems on one of its borders. The people and tribes that were against Islam had moved to the countries near the edge of the Muslim empire and would attack and rob the people living there. They became a nuisance and would cause a lot of bloodshed. The Muslim rulers of the lands were very worried for the welfare of these people who were both Muslims and non-muslims. They had lived in harmony in the past and enoyed the benefit of living in this peaceful land. All the peace had gone and the people were now terrified. The ruler decided to send a big army to guard this border and sort these rebels and bandits out. Before long, a Muslim army was sent there and peace was restored to this whole area. However, all these different groups continued to attack the army and eventually defeated it. Before very long, the state of the country had returned to chaos with small armies coming into the Muslim lands and attacking its people. The king sent a second army, which resulted in the same conclusion. Finally, the ruler decided to send his nephew, Muhammad bin Qasim, to this land with another army to patrol the area and to restore peace, harmony and prosperity. Now Muhammad was ust a youngster of seventeen but he loved to study from his teachers in the Islamic colleges and universities. He had a great love for Islam and would try and live his life according to Islam. Islamic Activity Lessons Page 14

15 Muhammad bin Qasim - part2 When Muhammad bin Qasim got to the lands he managed to restore peace very quickly. He then continued looking after the people in those lands. The army he commanded also loved and respected this youngster. They loved the way he dealt with the people and the concern he had for their welfare. They liked the way he resolved all issues according to Islam. They loved the fact that he was dedicated to Islam and was an intelligent and fair man. Before long, many people began to move to the Muslim lands. All the lands near by also became part of the Muslim world. The people accepted Islam in their droves and before very long Islam spread throughout all the neighbouring countries. These people that accepted Islam long ago were from the lands known today as Uzbekistan, Bangladesh, Pakistan, India and Kashmir. It was through this youngster and his love for ustice and fairness that there are Muslims in these countries today. LIVING BY ISLAM Whenever a ruler has been ust and has ruled according to Islam, we find that there was prosperity and peace. There are many cases throughout history which lead us to the same conclusion. The opposite case is also true. Whenever the rulers have been corrupt and no longer act according to the noble teachings and principles of Islam, there has been chaos and devastation. We learn a valuable lesson from this. We should try our best to live according to the teachings of Islam and be good and upright people. If we live according to these principles, Allah will give us prosperity and peace within our lives. Allah will also reward us in the hereafter with Jannah (insha'allah). Islamic Activity Lessons Page 15
