Lesson Title: 

Prophet Yunus (as) and Forgiveness

Lesson Objectives:

- To recap the story of Prophet Yunus (as) and derive lessons from it

- To understand the importance of asking for forgiveness and how Allah responds.

- To learn the ism Al-Ghaffor

- to become familiar with the way to say sorry as taught in the Qur’an

Quran Verse:

oostaghfirullah
Say sorry to Allah 4:106

Key Learning Point:

The story of Prophet Yusuf (as) teaches us how we should always listen to Allah, never give up and say sorry when we have made a mistake or done something wrong.

Saying sorry does not mean just saying the words. We must remember Allah and feel sad for what we have done. We must try our best not to do it again and then go back to doing what makes Allah happy.

Allah is Al Ghaffor, the Most Forgiving. He rubs out the wrong actions from the book of deeds that the angels have been writing in. He gives us a second chance.

When people do wrong to us, we must forgive them instead of getting angry and upset.
