Free Download - Inheritors of the Prophets

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets, for the Prophets did not leave behind Dinars and Dirhams, but they left behind knowledge; and whoever receives it, receives an abundance of good fortune.

 (Ahmad, Abu Dawud; authentic)

Alhamdulillaah we are pleased to share with you yet another free download from our Nurture Islaam Products. This time it's all about encouraging young and growing children to study and learn about the biographies of the Inheritor of the Prophet, our noble scholars.

Maashaa Allaah there are many authentic books on the biographies of the scholars available now in English. Invest in them and make it a tradition of your family to read and know them and know about their lives. Here are some titles available here

    

   


We have immense benefits and lessons to learn from their noble life and their stories become great inspiration and motivation especially for pre-teens and teenagers at this age and time, subhanallaah!

Even if you have given your children a good upbringing and a solid foundation of the dheen at early years, they are not free from falling into fitna. They need constant reminders, they need continuous encouragement, they need sincere guidance, they need endless inspiration and motivation. Reading and learning the lives of the scholars together as a family is one way to achieve this.

We know the pre-teen and the teenage age is not easy to deal with. It is tough, but Alhamdulillaah for Islaam. We just need to take that extra step and establish something. Stories touch the hearts, stories change the hearts, stories have a powerful impact on us, So why not use this tool of storytelling and story reading to cultivate our growing children. It helps the adults too. Don't we all need some boost every now and then to increase our weakening Eemaan?

We started our journey of learning about the scholars many years ago with Maimoonah, But we had to stop as I could not find enough authentics information or books at that time about the scholars and it took a lot of my time and effort to simplify and put together something for her.. Alhamdulillaah now we have access and we want to restart this journey. And inshaa Allaah we will be slowly producing the series on the biography of the scholars and make them available for purchasing at the Nurture Islaam Series little shop soon. Till then here is something for you to start.

Get some books on the biographies of the scholars or use this link and read with your children. Make time for reading and discussing just like you make time for coffee and tea. Relax and read little at time and when you complete the story of a scholar get your kids to use these free templates are fill them up. You can compile your own scrapbook or binder on the biographies of the scholars inshaa Allaah. It does not take even 30 minutes to fill it up. Reading and discussing mat=y take some time. But once done just make kids use their creativity in writing and crafting and fill it up. Serves as good writing practice and literacy enrichment too.

Here is an example of Maimoonah's completed template and mine!

Maimoonah's

I chose to write about the Muhaddith of this era Shaykh Naasirruddeen al Albaani raheemahullaah who changed my life and who captured my interest as a teenager through his precise writings and fiqh. I remember tears would not stop when the news reached me that day that he has returned to the mercy of Allaah, May Allaah have mercy upon him and grant him the highest position in Jannah and enable me to see him in the best place ever. Aameen.

Umm Maimoonah's

What are you waiting for! Shut down technology and rush to bond with family and spend time on cultivating your children. Few minutes a day can bring many years of lasting benefit! Inshaa Allaah!

All praise and thanks to Allaah alone for blessing me to continue something that I really enjoy doing and enabling me to assist my family. If not for His Mercy and blessings I could not have done anything, we ask Allaah to continue to guide and assist us to benefit this Ummah. Aameen.

My sincere thanks and gratitude to my partner Umm Aisha who beautifully designs my resources and adds her valuable suggestions and contents and to her whole family who helps with the resources. May Allaah bless them and increase them in every good and grant them the best in this world and the next, Aameen.

I also thank brother Abu Sukhailah  Khalil Ibn-Abelahyi (May Allaah preserve him and his family) from www.taalib.com for checking some of our materials and for being there always to give us his naseehah, suggestions and answering our queries with patience and concern and correcting us where needed. May Allaah make his scale heavy with good deeds on that Day. Aameen. 

I have not been on social media till recently as I was only blogging from the beginning. I started my social media accounts very recently, but many other loving sisters have taken the initiative to share our offerings and have enabled us to reach more families. My heartfelt sincere appreciation and thanks to those individual sisters and especially sister Umm Khadeejah at A Muslim Homeschool, sister Umm Assad at Umm Assad Homeschool, sister Imaan at Imaan Homeschool, sister Rachel in Doha for sharing every workshop/courses offered by us to reach the people in Doha.

May Allaah benefit you all from the knowledge learned and keep you and your children firm upon His straight Path. Aameen. 

Finally, I could not have come this far if not for my loving little family, may Allaah preserve them all, my husband for all his hard work behind the scene, taking care of the technology and sharing his valuable advice and expertise whenever needed and my sweet Maimoonah for helping me in every way and my little Ramlah for being patient with me. May Allaah bless them all. Aameen.

May Allaah reward you all for sharing the Khayr. Aameen
