Allah has ninety-nine names, i.e. one-hundred minus one, and whoever knows them will go to Paradise.” (Sahih Bukhari 50:894) Beautiful 17x22" full color, glossy poster with the 99 Most Beautiful Names of Allah - Asmaa-ul-Husna with their English meanings. Although the Names of Allah are vast in meaning and require books to explain, a short easy to understand meaning has been given to make memorization easy. I believe that learning the names of Allah does not need to be rushed. By taking our time, we allow the names of Allah to impact on their hearts, thereby helping to nurture a deeper and stronger connection to the Divine insha’Allah.
The 99 names of Allah are considered to be descriptions of God’s qualities and are used to invoke God’s presence in prayer and meditation.
What do you think? If you have a better idea I’d really appreciate it if you would share it with us all in the comments section below!!! To help the children understand this name better, we have been using the book “ Aishah Learns to Bake” by Latifah Peerbux. Each activity below is designed to help children understand the 99 names of Allah. The names themselves can seem complicated and somewhat abstract to young children. By associating the Divine name with an activity or craft, we show the children a more concrete representation of that name, creating a connection that will help with memorisation, as well as their understanding. The first pillar of Imaan (Faith) in Islam is Belief in Allah. As Muslims, we believe in Allah in accordance with His beautiful names and attributes. Allah has revealed His names repeatedly in the Holy Quran primarily for us to understand who He is. As the hands-on activity, we made the Honey and Date cupcakes that Aishah and her mum baked. They were delicious! Alhumdulillah!
Assalamu alaikum Dr. Gemma, thank you for the great ideas. I have been using the names of Allah (swt) as the foundation for my preschool Islamic education. I am a preschool director in California and teach the Islamic section of the day. After a short discussion or story read about a name we do a craft. We have used the same idea you had for the name of Allah but to teach Al-Wahid where they paint, fill with glitter or sequin a large # 1 and at the bottom of every name I always print out a short sentence highlighting the goal of the name, for example ” Allah is Al-Wahid, He is One and only one, he has no father, no mother or no son” God Almighty is the Creator of the world and what is in it. It is important to know the names of the most beautiful and the attributes of God Almighty. Knowing God makes a person love and fear Him, place their hopes on Him, and be faithful to Him in His work. There is no way to know God except by knowing His most beautiful names and seeking the correct understanding of their meanings. As-Samee’ with a picture of an ear that is cut up and numbered and they have to assemble the puzzle to reveal the picture. The first of the five pillars of Islam is belief in Allah (SWT). As Muslims, we believe in Allah (SWT) in accordance with His beautiful names and attributes. Learning and memorizing the names of Allah (SWT) will help us to identify the correct way to believe in Him. 99 names of Allah wall artLearning about the 99 names of Allah connects the hearts of children to their Lord. It helps them to develop a better understanding of Him and their own place in this world. And what better way to teach children than through gentle, play-based activities! There are ninety-nine names of Allah; he who commits them to memory would get into Paradise. Verily, Allah is Odd (He is one, and it is an odd number) and He loves odd number..” (Sahih Muslim Book-48 Hadith-5)
This is the story of a young girl called Aishah who wants to bake. Her mum agrees to teach her how, but she asks her to guess all the ingredients they need. What is wonderful is how her mum uses clues with an Islamic or Prophetic twist!!!Whoever involves himself in learning about God Almighty, then he is doing what he was created for, and if he ignores the matter, he will leave what he was created for. As a Muslim, we must do our best to get to know God through His names and attributes. And the more we know about our Lord, the greater our faith in God Almighty. This concept is something that even the youngest of children can understand. Allah made the clouds, Allah made the sun, Allah made the birds etc. I asked the children to collect things from our nature walk. We came home with so many twigs, leaves and flowers! So we went outdoors; to the park, to the woods, and just around our own garden, and spent some time talking together about what Allah had created. We talked about how He created everything from nothing, with no help. Teaching the 99 Names of Allah tochildren can be challenging for any Muslim parent. In our Muslim homeschool, we use a variety of crafts and hands-on activities to help our children remember the 99 names of Allah.
Learning the names of God Almighty and living by them is a great blessing. If we do not know who He is, how can we expect to love, worship, fear, and trust our Lord God Almighty? Therefore, it is the duty of every Muslim to learn about Allah (swt) and follow His words (the Holy Quran). Book 99 Names of allah This art activity is a great one for small kids too! We drew the outline of a heart onto a piece of paper. The children then scrunched up lots of small piece of tissue paper and glued them all over the heart!It’s a sweet and heart-warming story that helps children to understand what a blessing it is to have food, as well as the Blessings that different foods contain; and ultimately to be more grateful to Allah for providing us with them. Allah SWT chose 99 other names (Asmaul Husna ) for Himself. They’re called Asmaa Allah al Husna or Asma ul Husna. The 99 names of Allah are considered important in Islam and the Muslim community. They appear in the Quran and hadith, and memorizing them is considered righteous. These names are believed to be God’s most beautiful names, so they are also often used as names for boys or girls. The 99 names of Allah As a visual representation of this name, the children made a crown! Whilst they were making it, we talked about how Allah doesn’t wear a crown, and how Allah does not look like any king that they can imagine. We spoke a little about the role of a king and I asked them, “Who is the King of the Kings? ….. Allah!” This blog-post was written in partnership with Al Maurid Books.
