Actor 6point to the Quran
You remember the mr whoopsie uncle of Rasulullah, Abu Lahab. There is a whole surah in the Quran about him. And it was sent down before he did the mean things that he did. The Quran knew what he was going to do. It knew the future a little like the magicians. Magicians don’t really know the future, they play eye tricks and mind games while the Quran is the truth. It knows the future. It’s no trick

Magic Trick Station
Actor 1 and Actor 2 in separate stations teach the children magic tricks from the show.
Show the Quran and talk about it. It knew before.
The children get a chance to do it too.
Then Show the Quran and how it too knows.
Take a holy Quran and get Rasullulah to come out of the book trick. And Abu Lahab to go down down down trick .
Where do we want to be in this group or this one?
Get children to put a stamp thumb print in the group they want to be in. Have two easel boards with a beautiful border with RAsullulah on one and space in the centre and a dark yucky burnt horrible border on the other and space in the centre, even a burnt hole in the middle of the page and mounted on black
Kalima Station
Actor 5and Actor 3– one group
Actor 4 and Actor 8– one group
If you feel it works, you can give children a kalima lanyard and collect stamps from you after completing each task. This station can be quick and snappy and you can do just a few of them with the younger yellows if you like.
La Ilaha illallah – There is no god but Allah
Play a running game where you have an idol image and a phone and Allah on the wall. Children begin in the centre and they have to run to the answer. After the question they come back to the centre. Explain first where the answer is and how to play the game
You ask questions and children have to run to the correct place.

Who can see me all the time?
Who can be broken?
Who can help me when I need help?
Who loves me and is always watching lovingly over me?
Which one can’t look after itself?
Who gave me my mummy, my family?
Who hears my prayers and my wishes?
Who needs to be charged otherwise it also dies out?
Who is wise and does wise things?
Who becomes an old model and old design?
Who am I going to return to?
Muhamedur RAsullulah – Prophet Muhammed is the Messenger of Allah.
Show the children the word wall and talk about Rasullulah making some sign language for a few of the words
Let the children choose which word they want to talk about and sign. Make it fun
Ali youn Waliyullah – Imam Ali is the Friend of Allah
Give the children a chance to artwork Ali in Arabic
Use crayons and A6 size pieces of paper
Wasiyur Rasulullah wa Kalifatahu bila fasl
Imam Ali is the representative of Rasulullah right after Rasullulah.
Act out being in the office and how the manager needs to leave for a few days. He selects someone to be in charge.
Or
Mum needs to get groceries and asks you the big brother to watch the little brother or sister while she is away. Mum puts you in charge while she is away.
In the same way, Rasullulah placed Imam Ali in charge like everyone does.
