The UMMAH THINK- PAIR –SHARE How might the Muslim idea of the UMMAH help tackle environmental problems throughout the world? USE THE PICTURE CLUES TO HELP YOU... Think about a group/community you belong to... What makes you part of this community? ALL Muslims are part of the UMMAH (the Muslim brotherhood). The UMMAH unites Muslims from all over the world as ONE community. This community not only includes Muslims in today's society but all Muslims in the past and future Muslims too! What are the POSITIVES of being part of a community?
All of the Ummah have the same goals so they can work together to achieve them. • The Ummah can join together becoming more powerful – therefore things are more likely to get done. • Part of the Ummah is future generations so Muslims will want to protect the environment and its resources for them. • In being part of the Ummah Muslims will want to share the earths resources equally.

Muhammad and water When the prophet and his companion were once on a long hard journey, they stopped by a clear stream. It was a hot day and Muhammad's companions immediately went into the water and let it freely splash over them. When they looked up the prophet had taken a small bowl from his carrier and had scooped a small amount to wash in. Amazed the companions asked why. ‘Who gave us these good gifts but Allah and he gave enough for all but we should only take what we need and not waste any part’. What point is Muhammad making here? What lesson can Muslims learn from this? How could they put this teaching into practice?
Islamic Relief ensures that, while providing short-and long-term relief for those who are suffering, they do so in an environmentally safe way. • Do you agree with this approach? • Why might some people disagree with you? Islamic Relief states...’we all have a responsibility to maintain the balance of the earth, especially as disruption between the balance is causing widespread suffering amongst the worlds poorest people.’ What do you think is meant by this statement? Do you agree? • Some Muslims join and volunteer for organisations that work for the environment. • Organisations such as ISLAMIC RELIEF recognise the link between poverty and environmental care.
OUTCOMES… • Grade A/A* • Some will be able to express an opinion on the link between environmental issues and poverty. Did you achieve YOUR goal?…
