Islam for chidren

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit

    ¹⁵"If you love me, you will obey what I command. ¹⁶And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever— ¹⁷the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be^[c] in you. ¹⁸I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. ¹⁹Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. ²⁰On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. ²¹Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him."

    ²²Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, "But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?"

    ²³Jesus replied, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. ²⁴He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.

    ²⁵"All this I have spoken while still with you. ²⁶But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. ²⁷Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

    ²⁸"You heard me say, 'I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. ²⁹I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe. ³⁰I will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold on me, ³¹but the world must learn that I love the Father and that I do exactly what my Father has commanded me.

(The New Testament, John15-28)
Note: it is very important for the children to know the details about Isa(as), especially for those living in the West, so as to remove any counfusion/doubt from their minds and belong to the right belief based on proof.

23	MUHAMMAD (SAAW) He was a descendant of Prophet Ibrahim(Abraham- as). He was the Last Prophet of Allah – the Seal of All Prophets. He brought the last revelation from Allah T’Ala; since there is no new prophet to come Allah T’Ala will preserve the Qur’an for the right guidance of mankind. All Muslims have to oney Prophet Muhammad(saaw), as he did not speak of himself – but of whatever he was guided by Allah through The Spirit of Truth/ Angel Jibril/ Gabriel (as): O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and those charged with authority among you. If ye differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if ye do believe in Allah and the Last Day: That is best, and most suitable for final determination.    (The Holy Qur’an, An-Nisa, Chapter #4, Verse #59) Allah T’Ala sent the Qur’an that we may understand its stories and learn about the Truth: We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur'an, in order that ye may learn wisdom.  (The Holy Qur’an, Yusuf, Chapter #12, Verse #2) We sent down the (Qur'an) in Truth, and in Truth has it descended: and We sent thee but to give Glad Tidings and to warn (sinners).  (The Holy Qur’an  , Al-Isra, Chapter #17, Verse #105) Prophet Muhammad(saaw) was foretold by all Biblical Prophets(as). Isa(as) also foretold about him, in the Injil. That is what remains from Isa(as) – from whatever documents remain from the Bible. Prophet Muhammad(saaw) spent all his life learning Islam from Angel Jibril(as) and taught it to people. He was greatly tested by Allah T’Ala with different tests, but in the end he was successful. In his final sermon, he asked the many believers whether he conveyed the message of Islam on the hills of Arafat and they affirmed that he(saaw) did. He passed away shortly after that. A few detailed pages about Prophet Muhammad(saaw) are included in this section just before this chart. Also, in the Appendix (worksheets and Handouts), the family tree of Prophet Muhammad(saaw) is included as well.
