It began in the dark of night. Angel Jibril عليه السلام woke our beloved Prophet ﷺ and outside, waiting for him, was a creature from Jannah: the Buraq. Long and white, smaller than a mule but bigger than a donkey, moving faster than a flash of lightning with each step it leapt as far as the eye could see. The Buraq carried him all the way from al-Masjid al-Haram in Makkah to the blessed city of Jerusalem, in Palestine. There, at al-Masjid al-Aqsa, Allah gathered all the previous Prophets. And Muhammad ﷺ led them in salah. That journey is called al-Isra’.

Then Angel Jibril عليه السلام took him further up through the seven heavens. In each one, he met Prophets: Adam, Yahya, ʿIsa, Yusuf, Idris, Harun, Musa, and Ibrahim عليهم السلام. He saw Jannah. He saw Jahannam. And then, at the highest place beyond all seven heavens, our beloved Prophet ﷺ spoke directly to Allah, The Almighty. There, Allah gave him a precious gift for every Muslim who would ever live: the five daily salah. That journey is called al-Miʿraj.

By the next morning, he was back in Makkah. The whole thing happened in a part of one night.

When the walls grew too high to reach, Ismaʿil عليه السلام found a large stone for his father to stand on. That stone is Maqam Ibrahim, and it still stands beside the Kaʿbah today. Father and son made duʿa as they worked: “Our Lord, accept this from us. Indeed You are The All-Hearing, The All-Knowing.” Near the end, Allah sent a white stone from Jannah. They placed it carefully. Over time it turned black, and it is known today as al-Hajar al-Aswad, the Black Stone. The lesson ends with a question each child can sit with: what can you do with your family to make Allah happy?

The post Ibrahim & Ismaʿil عليه السلام Build the Kaʿbah appeared first on Quranic Tarbiyah.

Learners discover that when Allah ordered the angels to prostrate towards Adam عليه السلام, all of them obeyed except Shaytan. Full of pride, Shaytan refused and declared himself better. Allah gave Adam عليه السلام and Hawwa’ علیہا السلام a beautiful life in Jannah, with just one boundary: stay away from a particular tree. But Shaytan was patient in his deception. Day after day, he whispered, promising them they would become like angels or live forever until one day, they ate from the tree.

What follows is a lesson in something every child needs to know: that making a mistake does not mean all is lost. Adam عليه السلام and Hawwa’ علیہا السلام felt deeply sorry, asked Allah to forgive them, and He did. They were asked to leave Jannah and begin life on Earth, where Allah honoured Adam عليه السلام by making him the first Prophet chosen to teach people to worship Allah alone, to do good, and to stay away from bad. They raised their children with the same message: always do what Allah says, and beware of Shaytan’s whispers.

Young learners discover that Allah, the Greatest, created the world with a single word: “كُنْ” (Be!). From that same power, He fashioned Adam عليه السلام from clay, mixing soil of red, brown, yellow, white, and black from every corner of the earth. This detail stays with children: every skin colour traces back to that first handful of earth, and we are all children of Adam عليه السلام.

The lesson then walks children through the gifts Allah gave to Adam عليه السلام: the ability to walk, talk, see, hear, touch, smell, and think. They learn that Allah gave him a smart mind and the freedom to choose between right and wrong, and that Allah Himself taught Adam عليه السلام the names of all things. Learners also hear how Allah created a loving companion for Adam عليه السلام, his wife Hawwa’ علیہا السلام, and how they lived together happily in Jannah.
