Islam for Younger People is intended for children ages six to eleven years. It outlines the basic beliefs of Islam and presents a brief sketch of the life of the Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him), the five basic Islamic duties, a selection of stories and four short surahs (chapters) of the Qur'an. The author has attempted to present the topics in easily understood language. The book will go a long way towards laying down the initial foundation on which a child will grow as a Muslim within non-Muslim society.

The important pillar of Islam, Salah (daily prayers) is explained in detail in this invaluable book. The aim is to acquaint young Muslims with the knowledge necessary to be able to perform this vital act of worship. The book gives a detailed account of the process of making Wudu, then carefully describes how to perform Salah. In addition to the five daily Salah, there are chapters on Salah for special occasions, eleven Surahs of the Qur'an, and a selection of Qur'anic verses on Ma'ruf and Munkar. The author sets out to achieve this with the use of diagrams, pictures, Arabic text and English transliteration. The intended age range is 10 - 16, although older people may also find it a useful aid to learning. This book should be useful for young English-speaking Muslims, as well as those new to Islam.

This level commences with lessons in 'aqeedah about the implications of imitating others. It also includes a discussion about the signs of Allah (swt) which provide proof of His Oneness. In this grade, learners will recite the 28th Juz' and memorize Soorat Al-Qiyaamah and Soorat Al-Muddaththir. The Seerah lessons deal with the Hijrah and the life of 'Umar Ibn Al-Khattaab (ra). Students will learn about wiping over the socks and other materials such as bandages and plasters. The most significant aspects of Jumu'ah Salah, the status of Zakah, and the adhkaar said before going to sleep and upon awakening are discussed as well. The final lessons in this book cover the significance of good friends and the danger of bad ones.The material is presented, using a spiral approach, where students revisit each area and study it in greater depth each year. The Teacher’s Manual contains tips for teaching each lesson, suggested Pedagogical practices and solutions to exercises and activities found in the Student’s Textbook and the Activity Book.
