The Messenger of Allah Textbook: Volume 1 (Makkah Period)
This book has been developed for high school students. It brings out the personality of the Prophet (s) with the aim of encouraging students to follow his righteous paradigm. The Prophet’s (s) pre-Hijra biography is comprehensively described with constant reference to primary source material. The spotlight of this work is in its presentation of the Messenger of God as being the archetypal “Perfect Man”. It is to be used in conjunction with companion workbook. This last in the series of books on the life and teachings of Prophet Muhammad (s) is developed with a vision of bringing the personality of Rasulullah (s) so close to the school students that they will follow his example. Our hope is that when students are faced with difficult choices, they will search for the answers from the seerah, his Sunnah, and hadeeths of Rasulullah (s) and choose to do what Rasulullah (s) would have done in that situation, inshaAllah.
The life of Rasulullah (s) in Makkah is described in detail with constant reference to the Qur’an.
The emphasis is on presenting Rasulullah (s) as the model human being created by Allah. The workbook is an integral part of the curriculum. Teachers find the workbook extremely helpful during teaching in the classroom.
