About the Book:
The book by Dr. Muhammed Abdu Yamani, teaches our children to love the Prophet (peace & blessings be upon him) and to hold fast to the Shariah and the Sunna he embodies so that the true springs of faith will take root in their hearts. Faith begins with love and grows through love until it reaches perfection. Perfect faith can not be reached until one's love for Allah and for the Messenger (peace & blessings be upon him) is stronger than one's love for all else. The Prophet (peace & blessings be upon him) was a man of tremendous characteristics and an embodiment of the Quran. This book is a brief survey of some of the aspects of his character, and it is hoped that our children will find them as a real historical example to follow. The study of this book will deepen their love for the Prophet (peace & blessings be upon him) and his sunna, and hence their love for Islam.
Each class will also end with a brief look at the example of a strong muslim women in Islamic history, to increase our knowledge of the companions and the Tabi'īn, as well as to gain more personal role models for our day to day lives.
