INTRODUCTION

What Is the Tasheel Series?

The Tasheel series is an Islamic curriculum for children and teenagers aging from 5 till 13 years old.

It is Named Tasheel because it draws its inspiration from its Arabic root letters which means ease.

After years of living in the secular society, Ulama realised whilst developing an authentic, invigorating and stimulating Islamic educational material, ease of use for the child learner is integral to this process.

After some 70 years of experience, the combined efforts of authentic traditional Islamic scholarship, educational theorists, and psychologists The Tasheel Series was born under the auspices of the Jamiatul Ulama South Africa.

The curriculum that has been developed by the Taalimi Board of the Jamiatul Ulama South Africa prepares young Muslims for present and future challenges.

The Aim

The aim upon which this curriculum rests is to generate:

• The recognition of Allah Ta’ala in the manner shown by Nabi sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam
• To practice upon whatever is learnt
• To engage in the propagation of Islam

How Do We Achieve This?

By giving the spirit (the heart) its supreme positions in the educational system.

Islamic education insists that piety and faith must be clearly recognised in the curriculum, and this has to be systematically personal.
