The people asked Prophet Sulaiman to pray to Allah for them. Prophet Sulaiman came out with his people to pray for rain. Suddenly he noticed an ant standing on its two legs, raising its hands up to the sky and saying: "Oh Allah! We are very small. We cannot survive without Your help. Please send rain so that we have food to eat."

Prophet Sulaiman , who understood the language of the animals, told his people e that they could all go home as the prayer of that one little ant was enough. It then rained heavily and all the land became green.

No matter who or what you are. Allah loves you and always listens to your prayers (Du'a) if they are from your heart.

LESS0N 12: BEING HAPPY

The Holy Prophet has said that the act most liked by Allah is making other Muslims happy. Allah will give lots of Thawaab to a person who smiles when s/he meets another Muslim By you smiling you are telling people that you are happy to see them. If you are happy people will want to be with you and they will also be happy, but if you are sad then p people eople will leave you on your own because they do not want to be sad as well.

Whenever anyone was rude to Our Holy Prophet or the Imams, they used to just smile and be nice to them. The people being rude would immediately feel bad about what they had done. There was once an old, naughty woman who used to throw rubbish on Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) everyday when he passed her house on his way to the mosque, but he never ever got angry with her. One day when the Prophet (s.a.w.) passed the old woman's house, any rubbish did not hit him. He stopped and asked the old woman's neighbour if she was all right because she was not there to throw rubbish on him. The neighbour told him that the old woman was not well and she was in bed. So the Prophet (s.a.w.) went to visit the old woman because it is good to go and see people who are not well. The old woman thought the Prophet (s.a.w.) had come to tell her off, and she said: "Why did you wait until I was was ill to tell me off. Why didn't you come when I was well and strong?" Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) replied to the old woman: I have not come to tell you off, but to visit you because Allah tells us to look after people who are not well. The old woman was so surprised that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) was being so kind to her, after she had been so mean to him, that she decided to listen to him and she became a Muslim.

LESSON 13: SHARING WITH SIBLINGS

Allah likes us to share our things, especially with our brothers and sisters.
Remember that everything we have is from Allah, and if we share Allah will give us more.

One day a woman came to Kazim' Kazim's s house to see his mummy. She brought her son, Raza. Kazim's mummy told him to play with Raza. So, they played in Kazims room with his toys. Soon, Kazims younger brother Adam came, and he, too, wanted to play with his brothers toys. But Kazim did not want to play with his brother, in case Adam broke his toys. Adam was very upset and started crying.
Kazim's mummy asked Kazim to share his toys with his brother, but Kazim would not. A few days later, Kazim went to Razas house, but Raza was being bein

mean, and would not let Kazim play with his toys. Kazim was very sad. When Kazim got home he told his mummy how mean Raza had been. His brother Adam heard him, m, and told Kazim he could have his (Adams) favorite book to colour in.
Kazim realised how much his brother loved him, and was very sorry for not

sharing with Adam and making him sad. He promised that from then on he would always share all his things with his brother.

Brothers and sisters are very special. If we fight with a friend, they will go away, but even if we fight with our brother or sister they will always be there with us.

Allah has asked us in the Quran to recite Salawaat for the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.)and his family, because of His great love for them.

fZ }A fZ } u }A
When you are reciting Salawaat you are asking Allah to send His blessings to the Prophet Muhammad and his family. The Prophets family are: Bibi Fatimah (a.s.), AND the 12 Imams (a.s.)

Whenever you hear the name of our Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) or his family you should recite Salawaat. When you hear the name of our 12th Imam, Imam Muhammad Al-Mahdi (a.s.), you should: stand up put your right hand on your head bow down your head

This is because our 12th Imam is still alive. When you are sitting not knowing what to do (E.g.. when you do not understand the Majlis in mosque), you should recite as many Salawaat as many times as you possible.

Inshallah on the Day of Judgement the Holy Prophet and his family will ask Allah to forgive you, in return for all the Salawaat you sent to them.

Allah Says in the Holy Qur'an:

The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) has also said that when we please our parents we are pleasing Allah, and when we upset them we are upsetting Allah.

Your mother carried you for nine months then gave birth to you, fed you, clothed you and looked after you This is why in Islam we are told that Heaven lies under the feet of your mother. When you are ill, your parents look after you.

When you are sad they are sad. When you are happ happy, they are happy.
