Five Great Lessons

Every School year in Montessori school starts with "5 Great Lessons" or "Stories of Creation."
Each story has beautiful presentation with different materials presented by the teacher.

I have been working for a long time on modifying these Great Lessons with Islamic Perspective of Creation and I'm very excited to share with you all very soon inshaAllah.

 The First Great Lesson: The Beginning of the Universe and Earth

 The Second Great Lesson: Life Comes to Earth

 The Third Great Lesson: Humans Come to Earth

 The Fourth Great Lesson: How Writing Began

 The Fifth Great Lesson: How Numbers Began

Disclaimer: I have put these stories with the best of my ability. I'm not an expert or scholar and if you do notice any mistakes or confusion please feel free to adjust these stories according to your knowledge and best judgement. May Allah SWT accept it and guide us all to that which is right and pleasing to HIM. Third Great Lesson: Humans Come to Earth As we have seen in the second great lesson the Earth transformed from   being a hot barren planet into a place blooming with life and beauty. The Earth now been filled with insects, amphibians, reptiles, fish and mammals. The dinosaurs became instinct and the Earth continents been formed. We can see the way Allah SWT gradually prepared this Earth for a special someone to come. Just imagine the Mercy of Allah to make this Earth perfect for the human beings to come.
