Being Muslim - this is a diamond 9 activity prepared for our local after-school Islamic school. It is aimed at primary school but could also work for Secondary. This was interesting because when I did this with Year 2 / 3, we were able to understand what 'actually&' went on in the minds of the Muslim children, and what they though were the most and least important things for Muslims to do. Note: The Diamond with the Arabic is meant to be the &';Testimony of Faith' - the Shahada&' which simply means to believe and testify that &';There is no god except Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger.

To make the lesson more relevant to the pupils I took pictures from my local Mosque - any questions please contact me. Hamid P.S. The Starter to be played with the audio of azan attached.
