For an effective learning according to the great hadith of Jibreel we need to: Have a clear intention of acquiring knowledge to please Allah and not for worldly benefits only. Ask short and good Questions because others are going to learn from its answer as well. Good Listening Wear clean and decent clothes. Sit Properly and close to the Speaker!

Five pillars of Islam

AL- Ihsan, To worship Allah as if we see Him because even if we do not see him now He sees us all the time. Doing Good Things to yourself and Others Surat Qasas 77: "... and do good as Allah has done good to you.“ Surat -ul-Baqarah 195:"...and do good (to others); Surely Allah loves the doers of good."

The Signs of the 'Hour' Minor signs : The desert people will gain wealth and compete in building high rises. The slave women will give birth to their mistresses. Major signs: The sun rising from the west The apperance of the false messiah, and the return of Prophet Isa (Jesus) to earth to kill messiah.

Unit A Chapter 4/Lesson 1 The World of Jinn Learning Objectives: 1. What are Jinn? 2. What are the different types of Jinn? 3. How are the Jinn different to us?

Surat-ul-Jinn Makkiyah, Verses:28 Reasons of revelation The Devils were no longer able to approach the Heaven. Prophet Muhammed hadn't seen or read to the Jinn before. He went to Ukkah Market East of Makkah on the way a jinn listened to Prophet Muhammad pboh reading Qur’an. He asked the prophet to read to his fellow jinn. They were astonished by the Qur’an and so they became muslims.

What are the jinn? JINNS are created from FIRE. THEY can SEE us, BUT WE CANNOT SEE THEM. Allah created them to worship Him There are Muslim and unbeliever JINNS. JINNS were created before the HUMANS were created. JINNS are a SPECIES of creation with INTELLIGENCE

Characteristics of the jinn Take different forms Invisible Travel fast Have the ability to go into or through objects They are capable of speech. They live in this earth and rise up to space Muslim Jinn Believe in Allah and Reject Iblees They listened to and loved Qur'an They never expected that one could dare to spread lies about Allah swt.

Misguidance and co- worship Some human beings used to associate the jinn with Allah as partners and each group increased the other in misguidance Fortune-Telling, magic and Witchcraft Magicians working with devils "Mediums“ Magicians that entertain the crowds using skillful tricks are alright as long as don’t deal with jinn.

Islamic View on Magicians The greatest Sin after Shirk

How do Believers protect themselves from the harm of evil Jinn Keep a close relationship with Allah Do all your compulsory duties (pray 5 times per day, fast Ramadan, pay zakah, go to Hajj if you can.) Read Qur’an on daily basis. Practice Thikr or rememberance of Allah, every day. Say: “Eudhu bil-lahi minesh-shaytanirr-rrajeem”

Benefits of reading Surat-ul-Jinn Whosoever recites Suratul Jinn will never be touched by the evil eye, magic, witchcraft or the evil plots of the Jinn while in this world, and that person will be in the company of Muhammad (blessings of Allah be upon him and his progeny) and will beseech the Almighty by saying, Tafsir Al-Burhan, Volume 4, Page 390

QUIZ WHAT ARE JINN? WHAT CAN EVIL JINN DO TO MUSLIMS? DO PEOPLE HAVE DEALINGS WITH THE JINN? IN WHAT WAY? IS DEALING WITH JINN PERMITTED IN ISLAM. HOW STRONG IS ISLAM ABOUT IT? HOW CAN A MUSLIM PROTECT HIMSELF AND HIS FAMILY FROM THE EVIL JINN?

TRUE OR FALSE Believing in the jinn is not important in Islam. They are creations of no free will. Muslims seek protection of Allah from the devil jinn. “Eudhu-bil-lahi minash-shaytanirr-rrajim” Means: I seek protection of Allah from the cursed devil. Jinn are creatures that have distinct features like: invisibility, travel fast, can go into and through objects etc. Dealing with Jinn is harmful to both sides, and Magic is one of the Major sins that bring the wrath of Allah on us.
