Tas Heel Curriculum - Grade 6

The Tas-Heel Series is a renowned Islamic curriculum developed by the Jamiatul Ulama South Africa. Designed specifically for English-speaking students, this comprehensive 12-grade program makes learning Islam "easy" without sacrificing depth. By integrating essential knowledge—from theology and history to daily etiquette—the series provides a balanced foundation that grows with the child, ensuring they develop a strong Muslim identity rooted in authentic scholarship.

Grade 6 marks a transition into pre-adolescence (ages 11–12). The curriculum begins to address personal maturity and the concept of accountability (Takleef), preparing students for the physical and spiritual changes they will soon encounter.

Key Learning Modules for Grade 6:

• Aqaa’id (Beliefs): Explores the concept of the Barzakh (the state between death and resurrection) and a more detailed study of the Day of Judgment.

• Fiqh (Practice): Detailed focus on Taharah (Purification), including the rules of Ghusl (ritual bath) and the specific laws pertaining to physical maturity for both boys and girls.

• Akhlaaq (Manners): Focuses on Digital and Social Etiquette, modesty (Haya), and the dangers of pride and arrogance.

• Tareekh (History): Covers the Conquest of Makkah and the Farewell Pilgrimage. Students reflect on the Prophet's ﷺ legacy and the completion of the message of Islam.

• Du'as & Hadith: Memorization of the Du'as for seeking guidance (Istikhara) and Ahadith regarding the signs of a believer.
