HOW IT WORKS

What the Islamic Studies Level 1 Course Covers

Level 1 is organized into five units. Students begin with the foundations of Aqeedah, including the pillars of Iman and an introduction to the Names of Allah, then study the Fiqh of Taharah and Salah.

The level continues with the Seerah of the Prophet ﷺ in Makkah, selected Hadith with their lessons, and Islamic character and manners, and closes with a review and a Level 1 assessment.

  • Belief and Worship: Tawheed, the pillars of Iman, and the Fiqh of purification and prayer, each with its evidence.
  • Seerah and Hadith: The life of the Prophet ﷺ in Makkah and selected Hadith on intention, faith, and good conduct.
  • Character and Assessment: Islamic manners for daily life, closing with a Level 1 assessment that opens the way to Level 2.

COURSE STRUCTURE

How the Islamic Studies Level 1 Course Is Structured

Level 1 is divided into five units, each building on the one before, and closes with an assessment.

1

1. Unit One: Foundations of Aqeedah:

Students study the meaning of Tawheed, the six pillars of Iman, and an introduction to the Names and Attributes of Allah, each with its evidence from the Quran and Sunnah.

New learners receive extra support in this unit, so everyone begins the level on the same footing.

2

2. Unit Two: Fiqh of Taharah and Salah:

The teacher covers the rulings of purification, Wudu, Ghusl, and Salah, including its conditions, pillars, and common mistakes.

Students demonstrate the steps of Wudu and Salah in live sessions so the teacher can confirm each one. Practical demonstrations are done with a same-gender teacher, or explained step by step where a demonstration is not appropriate.

3

3. Unit Three: The Seerah in Makkah:

Students study the life of the Prophet ﷺ from his birth to the Hijrah, including the beginning of revelation and the patience of the early Muslims.

Each event is linked to lessons for faith and character today.

4

4. Unit Four: Selected Hadith and Islamic Character:

The teacher introduces selected Hadith on intention, faith, and good conduct, together with the Islamic manners of daily life.

Students explain the meaning of each Hadith and how it applies to their own behavior.

5

5. Unit Five: Review and Level 1 Assessment:

The final unit reviews the key points of the level and closes with a Level 1 assessment covering all five units.

Students who pass the assessment are ready to continue into Kalamullah's Islamic Studies Level 2.
