This shows Allah is Beneficent because it emphasises compassion towards humans.

This shows Allah is Omnipotent because He is the Creator of the Worlds.

This shows Allah is Merciful because He wants to forgive humans.

This shows Allah is All Powerful, He is the owner of everything. He alone will judge all of humankind.

This shows Allah is Immanent and Omnipotent. Mankind is weak and dependent on Allah. Mankind submit to Allah and recognise His Greatness. He hears when they call on Him.

This shows Allah is Immanent, He acts in the world and guides people to the straight path.

This verse illustrates Allah is Immanent, Merciful and Transcendent This shows Allah is Merciful, Beneficent. Allah loves his creation. Suffering is part of Allah’s will and humans will be rewarded This shows Allah is Merciful, Beneficent. Allah loves his creation. Suffering is part of Allah’s will and humans will be rewarded

Omnipotent- He is indivisible.

This shows Transcendence. He is the First Cause, the infinite. He has no beginning and no end.

Transcendent, Omnipotent. He has no family, no one created Him.

Transcendent, incomparable, nothing like him. He is the ultimate source of power and greatness. He is beyond human understanding. Exam Question source of wisdom and authority.

LO: To describe the beliefs about Allah and explain why they are important to Muslims. Key words: Tawhid, 99 names of Allah, Surah Fathiha, Surah Ikhlaas, Transcendent. RESOURCES Characteristic Definition 1. Transcendent a. He is close to every human and acts within the world daily. Muslims believe that everything within the universe can point to Allah.

2. Immanent b. He is all-loving and cares for his creations on a personal level. 3. Omnipotent c. He forgives the things that people do wrong. He is compassionate when people are sorry. 4. Beneficent d. He is all-powerful. This shows that Allah is in control of everything that happens and there is nothing more powerful than him.

5. Merciful e. He is above and beyond anything that exists in the world. This can make Allah difficult for Muslims to understand fully or describe.

6. Just f. He judges people in a fair and unbiased way. ..

Quote from the Quran I think this quote means… “He knows what penetrates into the earth and what emerges from it and what descends from the heaven and what ascends therein; and He is with you wherever you are.” (57:4) “The Most Excellent Names belong to God: use them to call on Him.” (7:180) “This is God, your Lord, there is no God but Him, the Creator of all things, so worship him; He is in charge of everything. No vision can take Him in, but He takes in all vision. He is the All Subtle, the All Aware.” (6:102-103) Lesson 4 – Tawhid

LO: To evaluate the nature and purpose of Risalah for Muslims. Key Words: Adam, Ibrahim, Musa, Muhammad, Risalah. RESOURCES Muslims believe that God has chosen many ………… to bring the message of Islam to the people. The belief in prophets and their importance is known as ………. Prophethood- when someone is made a prophet- is a gift given by …………to help humankind understand his message. The prophets are important as they provide a method of …………………between God and human beings.

Ibrahim (Abraham) 1. Regarded as the greatest of the prophets before Isa. 2. Ibrahim was born to a polytheistic family (showing how the message of Allah had been distorted – shirk) which he rejected. 3. He was not a Jew or a Christian, but a Muslim because he ‘bowed his will to Allah’s which is Islam’. 4. Both his sons were also prophets – Ismail (Ishmael) and Ishaq (Isaac). 5. Ismail was the eldest son, born to Hagar. Ishaq was born to . 6. Upon Ishaq’s birth Sarah commanded that Ibrahim take Hagar and Ismail to Arabia. 7. In Arabia he rebuilt the Ka’ba with Ismail. 8. In Mina Allah tested Ibrahim to sacrifice his son. He passed this test, and did not have to kill Ismail. 9. In Mina (later ) he was tempted by Shaytan (Satan) but threw stones at him. 10. It is believed that Allah revealed a holy book to Ibrahim ‘ The Scrolls of Ibrahim’. 11. Muslims believe his son Ismail was a prophet for the Arabs, and Ishaq a prophet for the Jews.

Qur’an 1. ‘ Abraham was of the self-same faith and came to his Lord with a pure heart. He said to his father and to his people: ‘What are these that you worship? Would you serve false instead of God? What think you of the Lord of the Universe?’ Surah 37: 82-89

2. ‘Thus we do reward the righteous. He was one of Our believing servants.’ Surah 110 -111 Adem (Adam) st 1. Was the 1 man created. 2. He ‘fell from grace’ (sinned against Allah) by giving in to the temptations of Shaytan (Satan). 3. He was expelled by Allah from the Garden of Eden via a whirlwind. 4. After this he came to his senses on Mt Arafat. Here he confessed his , was forgiven by Allah and became the first Prophet. st 5. Muslims believe he built the 1 Ka’ba as a place to worship Allah (the in ). The 1st Ka’ba was destroyed later when Allah flooded the world (Story of Nuh or Noah). 6. Adam (with Eve) had two sons one whom murdered the other.

Qur’an 1. ‘He taught Adam the names of all things and then set them before the angels,.’ Surah 2:31

1. ‘ ‘When My guidance is revealed to you, those that follow My guidance shall have nothing to fear or to regret." Surah 2: 39 Isa (Jesus) 1. According to the Qur’an Isa was born from a virgin called Maryam (Mary). 2. His mother never had sex and was the most ‘virtuous of women’. 3. Isa was given the Holy book of the Injil (). 4. In the Qur’an Isa is said to have performed many miracles e.g. healing lepers, making the dumb speak and the lame walk. 5. The Qur’an says that the Jewish authorities wanted to kill Isa, and it appeared so, but they did not kill him. 6. Muslims believe that Jesus did not die, but was taken to heaven. 7. Muslim tradition asserts that Isa will return before the end of the world and gather all true Muslims together. 8. The Qur’an is quite clear that Isa was only a prophet and a man.

Qur’an 1. ‘They denied the and uttered a monstrous falsehood against Mary. They declared: ‘We have put to death the , Jesus son of Mary, the apostle of Allah.’ They did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, but they thought they did.’ Surah 4:57

2. ‘Allah said: ‘ Jesus I am about to claim you back and lift you up to Me. I shall take you away from the unbelievers and exalt your followers above them till the .’ Surah 3:55 Musa (Moses) 1. Musa is mentioned more than any other individual in the Qur’an. 2. The work of Ibrahim was forgotten and his holy book lost so that a new prophet had to be sent. 3. Musa was born a Jew and brought up by Pharaoh's daughter. (In Egypt) 4. He killed an Egyptian and fled to where Allah called him to lead the Jews out of slavery and into Allah’s promised land. 5. He was given the word of Allah in the Tawrat (Torah). 6. The people often rejected and distorted this message.

Qur’an 1. ‘We called out to him from the right side of the Mountain, and when he came near We communed with him in secret. We gave him, of Our mercy, his brother , himself a prophet.’ Surah 19: 51-53

2. ‘And when he came near (Moses), a voice called out to him from a bush in a blessed spot on the right side of the valley, saying: ‘Moses, I am Allah, Lord or the Universe. Throw down your staff.’ Surah 28:30 Muhammad ‘Seal of the Prophets’ 1. The Qur’an is very clear about Muhammad – he was like all the other prophets, a man .(not an angel or the son of Allah). 2. Surah 46 : 9 ‘…I follow only what is revealed to me, and my only duty is to give plain warning.’ 3. Muhammad performed no miracles, he died an ordinary death and he was buried. He was an ordinary man, but brought the greatest of all, the Qur’an. 4. Islam teaches that this revelation is Allah’s final word to humanity, given in such a way that it can never be distorted again (like the previous revelations). 5. As a result, because the Qur’an can never be distorted there can be no more prophets. Surah 33: 40 ‘ He is the Apostle of Allah and the Seal of the Prophets.’ 6. This is the key to understanding risalah (prophethood). Allah sent many prophets to humankind to help them, but their message had been either forgotten or distorted. Previous prophets did not record their Holy Books immediately and so by the time they were written down things had been changed in them. 7. Muslims believe that both Jewish and Christian Holy books contain parts of Allah’s revelation, but not enough to serve Allah correctly. 8. This is what makes Muhammad ‘Seal of the Prophets’. The Qur’an was given to Muhammad by Allah in Arabic, and it was immediately written down in Arabic, so there are now no differences between copies of the Qur’an. They are the word of Allah, and why they all have the same Arabic letters. 9. As the Qur’an can never be distorted, it follows that here is no need any more prophets to be sent. 10. Muhammad has restored Islam to what Allah wants it to be, and Muslims believe it can never again go wrong. Adam Ibrahim (Abraham) 1. 1.

He also told the prophet Zachariah about the birth of Yahya (John the Baptist), and Maryam (Mary) about the birth of Isa (Jesus).

In 610ce during the month of Ramadan, while Muhammad was mediating in a cave near Mecca, God sent the angel Jibril with the first revelation of the Qur’an. • Jibril continued to give Muhammad revelations for the next twenty years until the Qur’an was complete Mika’il Mika’il is the second most important angel. Mika’il is believed to be the guardian of heaven, protecting it from evil and the Devil. He also ensures that humans are nourished by sending rain to the earth. There is only one reference to Mika’il in the Qur’an which states:

Whoever is an enemy of God or his angels or his apostles or Jibril or Mika’il, verily God is an enemy of the unbelievers Surah 2:98 Izra’il • Izra’il is the angel of death, The Qur’an says that the angel of death takes the soul of people at death and returns it to Allah The angel of Death put in charge of you, will take your souls: then shall ye be brought back to your Lord (Surah 32:11) • However, Izra’il only acts at Allahs command because it is Allah alone who decides when a person will die; Nor can a soul die except by God’s leave (Surah 3:145) • There are hadith which record that the prophets met Izra’il during their lives and that Izra’il watches over the dying. ‘Mika’il is more important than Jibril.’ Do you agree?

“No disaster strikes except “Say, Never, will we be struck with Allah’s will”. Surah 64:11 except by what Allah has decreed for us; He is our protector. And upon Allah let the believers rely”. Surah 9:51

What do these verses teach Muslims about Al Qadr and Human Freedom?

“Now the truth has come from your “He is the All Knowing Creator, Lord, let those who wish to believe when he wills something to be, his in it do so and let those who wish to way is to say, “Be and it is”. reject it do so”. Surah 18:29 Surah 36:81-82

‘Al-Qadr and human freedom are incompatible’

It is not fair for Allah to punish or reward someone for something he predestined them to do.

It is stated in the Qur’an that Allah has given people Without free will, Allah’s free will and so people are able to choose whether Judgement would be to act in a good or evil way unfair – it would not be just to reward or punish human beings if we are Shia’s reject the idea of total predestination, as simply robots, unable to they believe that God will change their destiny think for ourselves according to their actions

The idea that Allah is in control and knows Human beings are unique from what will happen in the future means that in animals and angels because we have reality our choices are superficial ones.

We experience free will knows everything before we are born, freedom when we choose to act and rise is no more than an illusion above our instinctive nature. ‘Al-Qadr and human freedom are incompatible’ YES: • The idea that Allah is in control and knows what will happen in the future means that in reality our choices are superficial ones.
