Knowledge is what you learn and what you know. You can learn new things at home, at mosque, in Madressa, at school, and many other places. We will concentrate on learning in Madressa. There are some important things you must do when you are learning something: Remember Allah before you start Sit up straight in your chair Do not talk in class! Listen carefully to the lesson Bismillah Remember to thank the person who is teaching you. Use that knowledge to make yourself a better person and also teach others (your younger brothers or sisters, and your friends) what you have learnt.

Learn the little poem! Draw a picture of something you should NOT do in your lesson:

Brush your teeth Do Wudhu Say Khuda-Hafiz to your family Recite a Surah from the Qur an Which angel has done more writing: the angel on your right shoulder writing good deeds, or the angel on your left writing bad deeds. Say sorry to Allah for anything bad that you have done, and promise that you will not do it again. If you have been mean to anyone, tell yourself that tomorrow you will say sorry to them. You should then sleep on your back or your right side. It is not good to sleep on your tummy.

Draw all the things you should try and do before you go to sleep:

You should remember to do the following when you wake up in the morning: Remember Allah first Say Salaam to our 12 th Imam (A) Greet, hug & kiss your parents Bismillah Remember, knock on your parent s door and wait for permission you enter. You should then put on your slippers and go to the toilet.

We remember Allah as soon as we wake up, then send Salaams to our 12 th Imam (A) and then go and greet out parents. Draw 2 other things you can do after you wake up:

The Holy Prophet (S) has also said that when we please our parents we are pleasing Allah, and when we upset them we are upsetting Allah. Your mother carried you for nine months then gave birth to you, fed you, clothed you and looked after you This is why in Islam we are told that Heaven lies under the feet of your mother. When you are ill, your parents look after you. When you are sad they are sad. When you are happy, they are happy. When you need help they are there for you. They pray for you, without you asking or even knowing. You can never repay your parents for everything they have done for you, but you can thank them by respecting them:

Making them happy Doing things for them, without being told to Never raising your voice when you are talking to them Thanking them and praying for them Remember to treat your grandparents with the same respect that you treat your parents. They cared for your parents just like your parents cared for you.

Draw 2 pictures of how you can be kind to you parents:

To be kind means to be gentle and friendly. It means to care for things or people. One should always be kind to people and help them. Allah is, this means that He is very gentle to us, and is always there to turn to when we need help. Allah has been very kind to us, so we should also be kind to others. If you are kind to others, then they will always be kind to you. The same way if you are mean to others than everyone will be mean to you. It is not always easy to be kind, especially when someone is bad to you. If you can be kind and gentle even then, then you will gain, and you will also earn the other person's friendship. Kindness always pays, because if you are kind to others, then one day when you are in difficulty, people will remember and say Friendship is such a beautiful gift. Imam Ali (A) said Imam Ali (A) says real friends as the treasures of this world and the hereafter.

Draw 2 pictures of what you what you enjoying doing with your best friend(s)

Allah likes us to share our things, especially with our brothers and sisters. Remember that everything we have is from Allah, and if we share Allah will give us more. One day a woman came to Haider's house to see his mummy. She brought her son, Salmaan. Haider's mummy told him to play with Salmaan. So, they played in Haider s room with his toys. Soon, Haider s younger brother Zeeshan came, and he, too, wanted to play with his brother s toys. But Haider did not want to play with his brother, in case Zeeshan broke his toys. Zeeshan was very upset and started crying. Haider's mummy asked him to share his toys with his brother, but he would not. A few days later, Haider went to Salmaan s house, but Salmaan was being mean, and would not let Haider play with his toys. Haider was very sad. When he got home he told his mummy how mean Salmaan had been. His brother Zeeshan heard him, and told Haider he could have his (Zeeshan s) favorite book to colour in.

Haider realised how much his brother loved him, and was very sorry for not sharing with Zeeshan and making him sad. He promised his mummy that from then on he would always share all his things with his brother.

= Thanking Allah. We Thank Him because of all the lovely things He has given us: Eyes to see with Hands to hold things A brain to understand things A family to care for us One day a little girl dreamt about going to heaven. In heaven an angel was showing her around. They walked side-by-side inside a large workroom filled with angels. The angel guide stopped in front of the first section and said, 'This is the Receiving Section. Here, all Duas to Allah said in prayer are received.' The little girl looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting out Duas written on lots and lots of paper from people all over the world. O Please Allah... O Please Allah... O Please Allah...

They then moved on down a long corridor until they reached the second section. The angel then said to the little girl, 'This is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the Duas and blessings the people asked for are sent to the people who asked for them.' The little girl noticed again how busy it was there. There were many angels working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been asked for and were being packed for delivery to Earth. Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor they stopped at the door of a very small station. To the little girl s great surprise, only one angel was seated there, idly doing nothing. 'This is the Thanking Allah Section,' my angel friend quietly admitted to me. He seemed embarrassed 'How is it that there is no work going on here?' the little girl asked. 'So sad,' the angel sighed. 'After people receive the blessings that they asked for, very few send back a Thank You to Allah.' 'How does one accept Allah's blessings? the little girl asked 'Simple,' the angel answered. Just say, 'Thank you, Allah.' 'What blessings should they Thank Allah for?' the little girl asked. - 'If you have food in the refrigerator, you Thank Allah - Clothes to wear, you Thank Allah - Somewhere to live, you Thank Allah The list is endless. So let us remember to do only good things which Allah likes, and say Shukral Lillah for all the things he has given us.

: Draw something else for which you can say Shukral Lillah:

TOPIC 1: ANGELS: We cannot see the angels, so we do not know what they look like, except that they have wings. Angels do different things. Some angels do nothing but worship Allah Some have special jobs like passing Allah's message to the Prophets like Jibrail Others look after us by giving us all the things we need to live (air, water, food, etc) like Mikaeel. Each one of us has two angels with us always, one sitting on each shoulder. The angel on the right shoulder, called Raqeeb, writes down all the good things that we do, and the angel on the left shoulder, called Ateed, writes down all the naughty things that we do. Now you know. Angels are a creation of Allah just as we are. Angels do as they are told by Allah. They do not do naughty things that Shaitan wants them to do. Tareekh Page 2.2 www.madressa.net

WORKSHEET 2.1: ANGELS: Draw a line to match the angels on the right with their work on the left: Naughty deeds Raqeeb Message from Allah Mikaeel Rizk Ateed Good deeds Jibrail Tareekh Page 2.3 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 2: PROPHET NUH: A long time ago there was a group of people who worshipped idols. Then Allah sent PROPHET NUH to guide these people to the right path. PROPHET NUH was a wise and patient man and he tried to teach the people about Allah and told them not to worship pieces of clay or wood, which they had made themselves as their gods. The people did not listen to him and when he warned them to be afraid of Allah's punishment, they laughed at him. Believe in One God and pray to Him for your needs DO NOT WORSHIP IDOLS!! PROPHET NUH did not give up and continued to preach the message of Allah to them for 950 years. But as time passed, the people grew worse, and began to attack him with stones whenever he tried to talk them. Tareekh Page 2.4 www.madressa.net

Finally PROPHET NUH complained to Allah about the people and asked Him to HELP. Allah accepted the prayer of PROPHET NUH and ordered him to build a large boat, an ark, and also told him that there would be a great flood in which all the bad people would be drowned. PROPHET NUH planted small trees and waited for them to grow up into strong trees. Then he cut them down and began to make the ark. It took 80 years to complete the ark, and during this time the people began teasing him saying that he had given up being a Prophet and had become a carpenter. When the ark was ready, Allah told PROPHET NUH to tell his followers to go inside the ark and also to take one pair of each type of animal. Tareekh Page 2.5 www.madressa.net

Suddenly, it began to rain heavily and streams of water came out from the ground. Soon the land was covered with water and the ark began to float. His son Kanaan, who was an unbeliever, refused to come with them. PROPHET NUH saw his son Kanaan struggling in the water and tried once more to convince him to have faith and come into the ark. But Kanaan replied that he would go to top of a mountain and be safe there. PROPHET NUH warned him that there was no shelter from Allah's Curse, except in the ark. In the meantime, a huge wave came and swept Kanaan off forever. Tareekh Page 2.6 www.madressa.net

The ark floated for a long time while the whole land was flooded so that nobody was left alive on it. Finally, the punishment of Allah was over and it stopped raining. The water level began to get less and the ark came down on a mountain called Judi. Mt. Judi PROPHET NUH was commanded to come out of the ark with his followers and the animals. In this new land they began their lives a fresh under the blessings of Allah. Now you know. Prophet Nuh was a patient man and he tried to teach people about Allah for many years but they worshipped wooden pieces called idols and they didn t listen to him. Prophet Nuh complained to Allah and asked for help. Allah told Prophet Nuh to build a boat called an Ark. It took Prophet Nuh 80 years to build the Ark. Allah told Prophet Nuh to take all his followers and 2 of each type on animal. Tareekh Page 2.7 www.madressa.net

WORKSHEET: PROPHET NUH: Colour the picture and answer the questions below. Who did Prophet Nuh (A) put in the Ark? Prophet Nuh put: in the Ark. Which of Prophet Nuh (A) son was drowned? drowned. Where did the Ark land? The Ark landed on a mountain called. Tareekh Page 2.8 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 3: PROPHET MUSA A little while before Prophet Musa was born, Fir'aun was told that a boy from the Bani Israa'il would soon be born and he would destroy Fir'aun's kingdom. When Fir aun, who was a cruel king, heard this, he ordered that every male child born to the Bani Israa'il should be killed. When Prophet Musa was born, his mother put him in a box and it in the River Nile. She then sent her daughter to follow the little "boat" and see where it went. The box floated towards Fir'aun s Palace, where his men fished it out and brought the baby to him. He wanted to kill it immediately, because he thought that it might be a child of the Bani Israa'il, but his wife Aasiyah, who was a pious woman, stopped him. They did not have children of their own, so she asked him to adopt the child. Tareekh Page 2.9 www.madressa.net

Fir'aun agreed to his wife's request and then called some women to feed the crying child. However, the baby refused milk from all the women who came to feed him, except his mother. So Allah reunited the mother and child in the very Palace of Fir'aun. As the years passed, Prophet Musa grew up strong and healthy.. He then left Egypt and went to Madyan EGYPT MADYAN Now you know. Prophet Musa was born at the time of Fir'aun. Fir'aun was a king who hated the Bani Israa'il. Bani Israa il was the tribe of Prophet Musa Tareekh Page 2.10 www.madressa.net

A little while later, there was a knock on the door. It was her son, Imam Hasan (A). He said Salaam to his mother and then asked if his grandfather was in the house. His mother replied that he was. Imam Hasan (A) went to his grandfather and asked if he may join him under the Kisa. The Prophet (S) agreed. A little while later, there was a knock on the door. It was her son, Imam Husain (A). He said Salaam to his mother and then asked if his grandfather was in the house. His mother replied that he was. Imam Husain (A) went to his and father and asked if he may join him under the Kisa. The Prophet (S) agreed, so Imam Husain (A) joined his grandfather and his brother, under the Kisa. A little while later, there was a knock on the door. It was her husband, Imam Ali (A). He said Salaam to his wife and then asked if his cousin, the Prophet (S) was in the house. His wife replied that he was. Imam Ali (A) went to his cousin and asked if he may join him under the Kisa. The Prophet (S) agreed. So, Imam Ali (A) then joined his cousin (and father-in-law), and his two sons, under the Kisa. Tareekh Page 2.12 www.madressa.net

A little while later Bibi Fatimah (A) went to her father and asked if she may join him under the Kisa. The Prophet (S) agreed, so she joined her father, her husband, and her two sons, under the Kisa. The Angel Jibrail asked Allah who was under the Cloak and he was told that it was: FATIMAH (A), HER FATHER, PROPHET MUHAMMAD (S) HER HUSBAND, IMAM ALI (A) HER TWO SONS. IMAM HASAN (A) AND IMAM HUSAIN (A) Now you know. Ahlul Kisa = Ahlul Bayt = Panjatan Pak) are: Prophet Muhammad (S), Imam Ali (A), Bibi Fatimah (A), Imam Hasan (A), Imam Husain (A).

TOPIC 5: IMAM MUHAMMAD AL-BAQIR (A): It was a very hot day and a man was walking past our 5 th Imam s farm. He saw Imam Muhammad al-baqir working very hard on the farm, looking hot and tired. He told the Imam that he should sit down and rest, and not work so hard. Imam Muhammad al-baqir answered that he was working so hard so that he could look after his family, and not have to ask anyone for help. Allah likes for us to work hard and do things for ourselves. Now you know. Moral: You should always try hard to do something by yourself, and only when you have tried and cannot do it, should you ask for help Tareekh Page 2.14 www.madressa.net

IMAM JA FAR AS-SADIQ (A) NARRATES FROM HIS FATHER, IMAM BAQIR (A): One day, I came to Jabir ibn Abdullah al-ansari (ra) and greeted him. He replied to my greeting and because he was blind, he asked me to tell him who I was. I introduced myself: "I am Muhammad, son of Ali, son of Husain." Jabir ibn Abdullah al-ansari (ra) said: "O! The son of the best human being, come closer!" I went closer. He hugged me and kissed my hands and tried to kiss my feet. I pulled myself away and prevented him from doing so. He then continued: "The messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad (S), had told me to convey his greetings (Salaam) to you." I replied: "Peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah." I then asked: "Jabir, what is the story behind this?" Jabir ibn Abdullah al-ansari (ra) said: "Once when I was with our Holy Prophet (S) he said to me, 'O! Jabir, perhaps you will live long enough until you meet a man from my children, whose name is Muhammad, son of Ali, son of Husain (great great grandson), to whom Allah has granted light and wisdom. So, give my greetings to him.'" Jabir ibn Abdullah al-ansari (ra) was a great companion Prophet Muhammad (S). He fought in the first Battle of Islam and many others as well He was the first visitor to shrine of Imam Husain (A) in Karbala. He became blind near the ends of his life and passed away at the age of 90. It is told that he used to sit in the mosque of our Holy Prophet (S) and say: "O! Baqir, O! Splitter of knowledge." The people of Medina thought he had gone mad. Jabir used to say: "By Allah I am not saying silly things. Prophet Muhammad (S) himself told me 'O! Jabir, perhaps you will live long enough until you meet a man from my children, whose name and appearance is similar to mine. He will split the knowledge perfectly. So whenever you see him, send my greetings to him.' So that is why I am calling out and waiting for him Moral: From Jabir ibn Abdullah Al-Ansari we have learnt that if you are given something to look after or pass to someone else (no matter how small) then look after it well until you give it because you have to answer to Allah for it. Tareekh Page 2.16 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 6: IMAM JA FAR AS-SADIQ (A): In the time of Imam Ja'far as-sadiq (A) there lived a young man called Zakariya who had converted from Christianity to Islam. On his way to Haj, Zakariya stopped in Madina to visit Imam Ja'far as-sadiq (A). Zakariya asked the Imam how he should behave towards his family who were still Christians. Imam replied that parents should be greatly respected in Islam, and told Zakariya to be kinder and more helpful to his mother than he had ever been. When Zakariya returned home, he was much more respectful and helpful to his old mother than before. He gave her food and drink with his own hands. He washed her clothes and kept the house tidy. And he would hug and kiss her all the time. His mother was very surprised but very happy with her son, and asked Zakariya what had made him become so kind towards her. When Zakariya explained about our 6 th Imam (A), his mother wanted to know more about Islam. Zakariya told her all about the teachings of Islam and when he had finished; his mother became a Muslim too. Now you know.. Moral: Always behave with good Akhlaq towards other people and never forget the rights of your parents. Tareekh Page 2.17 www.madressa.net

WORKSHEET: IMAM JA FAR AS-SADIQ (A) Our 6 th Imam (A) has taught us always to be kind and helpful to our parents. Draw 3 pictures of how you can help your Mummy and Daddy: E.g.: By keeping our room tidy: Tareekh Page 2.18 www.madressa.net

IMAM JA FAR AS-SADIQ (A) AND THE BEGGAR: - THANKING ALLAH: The pilgrims got together in the land of Mina during Haj. The 6 th Imam (A) and his friends were sitting in a place and were eating some grapes placed before them. A beggar came and asked for some money. Imam Ja far As-Sadiq (A) took some grapes to give him, but he refused to accept it and asked for money. Imam (A) told him to excuse him, as he did not have money. The beggar went away disappointed. After going a few steps the beggar changed his mind and came back and asked for the same grapes. Imam Ja far As-Sadiq (A) now refused to give him those grapes too. Soon after, another beggar appeared. Imam (A) again took some grapes and gave to him. He accepted it and said, "Thanks to the Lord of universe who gave me my sustenance". On hearing these words, Imam (A) told him to wait and gave him two handfuls of grapes. The beggar thanked Allah for the second time. Imam Ja far As-Sadiq (A) again told him to wait and then turning to one of his friends asked, "How much money have you got?" The man searched his pockets and produced nearly twenty Dirham, which he gave to the beggar at the order of Imam (A). The beggar thanked Allah for the third time said, "Thanks are only to Allah. O Allah! You are the Giver of the good, and you have no companion." On hearing these words, Imam Ja far As-Sadiq (A) took off his cloak and gave it to the beggar. Now, the beggar changed his tone and spoke a few words of thanks to Imam Ja far As-Sadiq (A) himself. Then Imam (A) did not give anything more and he went away. His friends and companions who were present there said, "We thought that if the beggar had continued thanking Allah, Imam (A) would have continued giving him more and more. But when he changed his words and praised and thanked Imam (A) himself, Imam Ja far As-Sadiq (A) did not continue his help." Moral of the Story: Whenever you get anything remember that even though it may be from someone, Allah has wished for you to have it. So not only should you thank the person who has given it to you (Jazakallah) but also thank Allah (Shukral lillah) Tareekh Page 2.19 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 7: IMAM MUSA AL-KADHIM (A): One day Imam Musa Al-Kadhim (A) passed by a poor man. The Imam greeted him and talked to him for a while, asking him if everything was all right. Before he went, the Imam (A) told the man that if there was anything that he could do for the man then he would do it. The followers of Imam were unhappy that Imam (A) had been so nice to this poor, ordinary man. They told Imam (A) it did not look right for someone as important as the Imam to talk to and help someone so ordinary. Imam Musa Al-Kadhim (A) replied that Allah has created all men equal. Being rich or better dressed doesn t mean you are better than someone else. BETTER?? Also if a person is poor today, it does not mean that he will stay poor all his life. The same goes for a rich person. So someone who needs help from you today may be the same person who will help you tomorrow. Now you know.. Moral: In Islam everyone is equal, and Allah is the giver of things, so being rich or better dressed does not mean you are better than someone else. Obeying Allah makes us better than those who do not obey Allah. Tareekh Page 2.20 www.madressa.net

WORKSHEET 7: MUSA AL-KADHIM (A): In Islam, everyone is equal. Colour all these people: Tareekh Page 2.21 www.madressa.net

IMAM MUSA AL KADHIM (A) AND ABU HANIFA: One day when our 7th Imam, Imam Musa Al- Kadhim (A) was only 5 years old, Abu Hanifa asked him who is responsible for our deeds. Do we do whatever we like in our life? Or does Allah make us do them. Imam Musa Al-Kadhim (A) replied that were are three possibilities: - Allah makes us do them. - Some things Allah makes us do and some things we decide ourselves. - We decide to dowhatever we like. If the 1 st is true then Allah should be judged on the Day of Judgement and sent to heaven or hell not us If the 2 nd is true that both Allah and we should be judged on the Day of Judgement and sent to heaven or hell SO, we know that only one that is true is the 3 rd one because only we will be judged on the Day of Judgement and sent to heaven or hell, because only we alone is responsible for what we do and how we choose to live our life. Moral: Although Allah has power over everything He allows us to do as we please so that we can account for our actions and get rewarded with Jannah or punished with Jahannam fairly Tareekh Page 2.22 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 1: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH (swt): ALLAH has blessed us with so many blessings and given us so much therefore we should remember him before we start anything by saying: ب سم الله الر حمان الر حيم We should say ب سم الله الر حمان الر حيم before we do anything because we want Allah to help us in what ever we are doing. If we say ب سم الله الر حمان الر حيم then Allah keeps Shaytan away from us and he cannot come and try to spoil what we are doing. WHERE WILL I LIVE? WHERE WILL I EAT? WHERE WILL I SLEEP? When Shaytan was ordered out of heaven by Allah he asked three questions? Where will I live? Where will I eat? Where will I Sleep? Allah (swt) told Shaitan that he would live with the person who did not say ب سم الله الر حمان الر حيم before he entered his/her house. Fiqh Page 2.2 www.madressa.net

Shaitan would eat with the person who did not say ب سم الله الر حمان الر حيم before he started to eat. He would sleep with the person who did not say ب سم الله الر حمان الر حيم before he/she went to sleep. Now you know. I begin in the name of Allah, the most Kind and the most Merciful Fiqh Page 2.3 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 8: ALLAH KNOWS EVERYTHING: Fatima asked her mummy if she could go outside to play. Her mummy said she could but only after she cleared up her toys. It would be too late then, she wanted to go now. She went upstairs to clear up her room. When she reached upstairs, she shut her room door so that her mother could not hear her and then quietly to herself started saying how horrible her mummy was. She suddenly stopped because she had remembered that although her mummy could not hear her, Allah knew everything and could hear her and she was sure that Allah would not like what she was saying. Fatima went to her mummy and gave her a big hug and told her how sorry she was, for being angry with her because she knew that she was just trying to teach her. I understand now Mummy. Thank you You shouldn t get angry, I am only here to teach you to be a good Muslim Now you know. Nothing can be kept a secret from Allah. He knows what you shout, what you whisper, even what you think and do not say out loud. He knows when you are good and when you are bad. He knows if you are telling the truth and when you are lying. He knows when you are happy and when you are sad. He knows when you need help and He helps you. He knows everything. Fiqh Page 2.16 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 5: ALLAH IS THE STRONGEST AND THE MOST POWERFUL. Ali woke up one night from his sleep very scared. When his mummy asked him what the matter was, he replied that he had had a nightmare about a big strong monster. Ali wanted his superman toy in bed with him so that if the monster came back superman could fight him because he is so strong. Ali's mummy told him that: - instead of asking superman, who was not real, - it would be better to ask Allah for help as He is the strongest and is real. So, Ali, If Superman was real, he would not be stronger than Allah; because Allah gives everyone their strength I understand now Mummy. Thank you Now you know. Allah made everything and has power over everything and everyone. There is no one; and nothing stronger than Him; He is the strongest. That is why we should only ask Allah for help because only He can really help us. Fiqh Page 2.10 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 14: TASBEEH: The Tasbeeh that we recite after our Salaat is known as the Tasbeeh of Bibi Fatima az-zahra (A.), because, her father, our Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) gave it to her as a present. Bibi Fatima (A) used to work very hard in her house. Her father saw how hard she worked. So one day he told her that he was going to give her something that would be better than anything else in the world. He gave her 'Tasbeeh'. He told her that after every Salaat she should say: = Allah is the Greatest : 34 times = All praise is to Allah: 33 times = Glory to Allah: 33 times Now you know. The Salaat is like a beautiful flower and the Tasbeeh of Bibi Fatima az-zahra (A) gives that beautiful flower a beautiful smell. So after every Salaat we should recite the Tasbeeh of Bibi Fatima (A) because we want our Salaat to be like a beautiful flower with a beautiful smell. Fiqh Page 2.25 www.madressa.net

TOPIC 3: I CAN'T SEE ALLAH: One day Hasan asked his mummy, "Why can't I see Allah?" His mummy said, "Allah is not a thing we can see. He has never been seen and will never be seen." Hasan asked, "Mummy, if we can't see Allah, then how do we know He is really there?" Hasan's mummy smiled and told him to pinch himself. Hasan being a good Muslim boy did what his mummy told him to do without question. "Ouch! That hurt me" he said as soon as he pinched himself. His mummy started looking all over Hasan looking for something. "What are you looking for mummy?" Hasan asked. "I'm looking for the pain" she replied. Hasan looked puzzled "But mummy, you can't see the pain." His mummy smiled and said "just as the pain is there even if you can't see it, Allah is also there although you can't see Him." Then she continued "although you can't see Allah you can see all the things He has made - by looking at yourself and all around you."

Our last Prophet, Prophet Muhammad (S) picked up some pebbles in his hand and all of a sudden in front of everyone the pebbles began to speak. The pebbles said: "Muhammad (S) is the messenger of Allah." Everyone knows that pebbles are not alive and have no mouth and cannot speak but these pebbles could because Allah had commanded them to. Muhammad (S) is the Messenger of Allah. Now you know. Allah can make the trees talk, He can make the stones talk, He can make anything talk; even if it is not alive. Because He made everything and He is the strongest. Allah can make anything talk. Fiqh Page 2.18 www.madressa.net
