This Fourth-Grade level textbook is part of IQRA's completely revised and revitalized 'Aqîdah, Fiqh and Akhlâq program.

For we at IQRA' believe such values to be the building-blocks of a better world and a blissful afterlife.
This is the first textbook written to introduce the basics of Islamic 'Aqidah, Akhlaq, Fiqh, and Tawhid in a structured manner for beginning readers. The topics are selected keeping in mind the interests and abilities of six and seven year old children. Beautiful illustrations and an attractive design keep young readers interested throughout the book.
The accompanying workbook is designed to reinforce the material covered in the text while also providing practice in critical thinking skills.

Goodword Islamic Studies grade 6 course has been designed to present the young students comprehensive Islamic education, comprising general Islamic knowledge based on the Qur'an and Haddith. Instead of teaching moral principles directly, they are taught through themes chosen from the Qur'an and other Islamic sources. A major portion of the course comprises the text of the Qur'an, which is followed by exercises to test the depth of understanding of the students. Though basically intended for use as a school text book, it is also an ideal tool for home schooling involving both the parents and the children. In this way the children will not only learn the ethical values conveyed by the message of Islam but will also be stimulated to want to know more about Islamic teachings when they grow up.

About the author: Best selling author, Saniyasnain Khan, has written numerous books for children, of which over a million copies have been sold worldwide. His books reflect his own love of story telling and deep respect for the eternal message of the Qur'an. He hopes that his books will make the stories from the Qur'an memorable for young children and will act as a foundation on which they may build a growing knowledge of Islam.

This is the first of a new series of books for students of school-going age. The series is called History of Islam, and it presents the history of Islam from the birth of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) until the end of the Ottoman Empire. The series, with its unique features, meets a need which has to date been given insufficient attention.

The first book has been written for students in the fourth grade level. The book is of moderate length, so as to give the school flexibility of choice. For example, it can be taught as a once-a-week, standalone subject, or incorporated into the school's Social Studies or Islamic Studies curriculum.

We hope that this series will provide Muslim students with the knowledge that they need about their magnificent heritage, and that it will inspire all those who read it to work together towards the building of a strong and motivated generation of learners.

Grade 6 covers a variety of topics, including the Kabba; taraaweeha prayers; good moral character; kindness to animals; etiquette of conversation; and more. This book also contains fun activities and review sections.

Given the dire need for English Islamic studies material in schools, Darussalam has endeavored to publish an Islamic Studies series covering all grades from grades 1 through 12. This series covers all areas of Islamic studies: tafsir, ahaddith, tawheed, fiqh, sirah, and general etiquette relating to different areas and situations. Given the importance of Islamic knowledge, every effort has been made to ensure that the material presented in the series is authentic. Also, given the importance of Arabic Islamic terms, most are presented in their original Arabic script, transliteration, and translation. This also applies to supplications which must be memorized in their Arabic version. The aim is to help the students read the original text and understand its meaning. Each lesson is followed by exercises with questions about the lesson.
One striking feature of this series is the use of colorful artwork. It is appealing to students and teachers. This is certainly bound to attract young readers' attention, stimulate them, amuse them, and most importantly to educate them.

The purpose of this series of Islamic books is to provide young learners with an understanding of their faith according to their age level. The language of the texts, the size of the lettering, the style of graphics, and the types of exercises have all been designed to meet the age-appropriate standards for each level. In addition, the content of the text has been written according to a sequential pattern. For example, only certain information about Prophet Muhammad is included in the first level. More details are added at the second level to meet higher levels of student comprehension. This sequencing is a critical part of a strong educational program, which guides the student through a consistent learning process. Although a textbook series is essential for an Islamic Studies curriculum, it is imperative that educators use these books as a stepping stone for an active learning experience.

Teachers may plan different projects around a particular unit. For example, when discussing "Show Kindness to Animals," students could paint their favorite animals, write a poem, or write a report on an endangered species. Islamic stories and other literature that emphasize moral values would also complement this program well. This series is intended for students who are 6 – 11 years of age.
