For today’s task you need to create a landscape orientated A4 piece of work which shows information about one of Allah’s names. You will all be given a different name to find out about.
Your poster needs to include:
- A picture of the name in Arabic
- What the name means and its number
- How you say the name in English
- Verses from the Qu’ran that include the name
- Extension: Some Muslims believe that if you say the name enough you will be blessed. What blessing does the name your are looking at bring?
Websites to use (beware – some count “Allah” as the first name, but we are not using this name. On these sites you’ll need to add 1 to the number I give to get the right name):
- Start with Wikipedia. The number I give you will be in this list. There are more links at the bottom.
- Use Art Islamic.com to get pictures of the names in Arabic. You may have to do a little searching…(this website counts Allah as the first name, be careful)
- IslamicPath.org has information about the benefits of using each name, as does BreatheIslam. Both use “Allah” as the first name.
- Sufism.org has some useful information
- Use Quran.com to look up verses
Good luck!
