The Book of Knowledge lessons do not contain direct fiqh lessons. Other books from the Ghazali children’s project do describe aspects of worship in great detail. In the few instances where necessary, differences related to schools of fiqh are clearly stated in supplementary texts and lessons (the book text for these few lessons state Shafi fiqh). There are very few lessons where this is needed. The books of Imam al Ghazali teach mainstream traditional sunni Islam.

The Radiant Hearts lessons are planned directly from the Ghazali children’s books and curriculum information and adapted by our teaching team to a suitable format. Most of the lessons and activities relate to tried and tested methods from our own on site teaching base in the UK.

General:

We welcome and value your feedback to help us further enhance our provision. Please email info@radianthearts.org.

Each book is taught as a stand alone course. We are currently completing the provision for the book of knowledge, which is a 40 week course. There are 6 books in total of different lengths.

The intended time to complete the lesson each week is an hour. This includes the video lessons and the activity. However the learning from the lesson and the virtue of the week are intended for practice throughout the week as a family as a step by step spiritual and character development programme.

Radiant Hearts students receive the entire workbook PDF for free to print. While the text is shared in the lesson video and hence the course can be completed without the textbook, we would highly recommend parents buy the textbook as the content and quality of the textbooks directly enhance the learning experience, and facilitate review at home. The books are also available as PDFs. Upon signup, students will receive a discount code for purchase of the book/ebook directly from Fons Vitae. Alternatively books can be purchased from other booksellers detailed on the website https://radianthearts.org/books/

The Ghazali Children’s project has been directly endorsed by numerous scholars around the world. These can be reviewed on The Ghazali Children’s project website ghazalichildren.org and social media platforms.

Prior knowledge is not assumed. However if you have an older child with limited islamic knowledge we would recommend you peruse the sample lessons to determine the most suitable course level to choose.
