Good reading material for our children is hard to come by! I have always enjoyed reading ahadith, and I want to encourage my children towards reading them too inshaAllah.
However, for younger readers, the ahadith are written in a much more formal language style than what they are typically accustomed to reading.
To help them comprehend a little better, I have broken down the translated meaning of the hadith of Jibreel into smaller readable chunks in the form of a short children's book, with some quiz questions at the end.
You can preview in the embedment below (to print click on download right at the bottom), or head on over to Scribd (its a free e-reader) where you can read it on any tablet or phone (including your pc) as an e-book and save your printer ink inshaAllah, just click on the high-lighted text below!
*If you don't have a scribd account to download, the Hadeeth of Jibreel PDF file can also be downloaded from google docs inshaAllah { here }
As a side note -available online via youtube are recordings of a series of audio lessons on the explanation of Imaam an-Nawawi's Forty Hadeeth, from the Works of Shaikh Muhammad al-'Uthaymeen & Shaikh Saalih Aal ash-Shaikh, translated By Abu 'Iyaad Amjad Rafiq.
Lesson 3 of these audios is the explanation of this particular hadith.
There is also an English translation of the book authored by Shaykh 'Abdul-Muhsin Ibn Hamad al-'Abbaad "Explanation of the hadith of Jibril"
I would love this as a print book
ReplyDeleteJazakAllahu khayr for your feedback!
DeleteIf you have access to a home printer, you can download the PDF and print at home. Printing onto photo-paper will give you a more professional looking finish bi'ithnillah and you can buy quite cheap from pound-stores if you are in the UK.
Umm Khadeejah this is so nice! Ma shaa Allaah barakallaahu feeki

ReplyDeleteDo you allow me to share this book in French that I realized by taking inspiration from your work?
Baraka Llahu feeki
Wa alaikum asalaam wa rahmatullah,
DeleteI am afraid I no longer have the original files to edit.
Also I don't claim any rights to the text, as it is is Darussalams translation.
Assalamu Alaikum, I like this book on The Hadith of Jibreel. I would like to know if I can take a Grab image of just the page on Ihsan and use as is, or as a reduced size version image in my classroom lesson handout on the topic of Ihsan. Kindly clarify. Jazakumullahu Khairan Katheeran and Wassalam
ReplyDeleteWa alaikum asalaam wa rahmatullah,
DeleteYes that is fine for classroom use. BarakAllahu feeki.
This is so cute, alhamdulillah.
