Islamic ‘Aqidah and Fiqh

Description

Islamic Aqidah and Fiqh, the textbook by Hajiyah B. Aisha Lemu, offers a new approach to the teaching of Islamic Studies, especially for younger students. It offers authentic information on Islamic ‘Adiah and Fiqh in simple English, combining the spirit of the teachings of Islam with their moral and social values.

Moreover, the author has used her wealth of knowledge of other subjects in putting facts across to the students effectively. She has also employed rational arguments in helping the reader to understand the lessons thoroughly.

The IQRA’ program of aqîdah, fiqh and akhlâq education provides opportunities for young students and readers to grow into members of the community who “enjoin what is good and censure what is wrong.” In the lower grades, our textbooks place emphasis on the elucidation of Islamic belief, living, and thinking. The key objective of this series of textbooks and enrichment material is to instill in young students Islamic values that will be reflected in everyday living. In the upper-grade levels, the focus shifts from the study of the foundational beliefs and ritual to the principles of the Shari’ah (jurisprudence), so that by the end of high school students will possess a well-versed approach to Islam.
