The Nakba Document is a slideshow detailing the events leading up to the Nakba, starting with Napoleon and including significant events before and after the establishment of Israel. It includes timelines, major resistance movements, intifadas and the South African genocide case presented to the ICJ.
Our aim is to show that the Nakba began long before 1948 and continues to this day. This presentation is intended to stimulate curiosity, encourage research and inspire students to seek the truth. It is not intended to be exhaustive or comprehensive, but rather to provide an overview that underscores the ongoing nature of the Nakba as an enduring ideology.
Teachers are encouraged to review the material thoroughly to ensure its appropriateness for their students. They are also encouraged to conduct independent research and provide context for the content presented.
In Years 10-12, students explore fundamental concepts such as food as a fundamental right, food security and forced famine. Through a compelling case study of Sultan Abdul Majeed’s aid to Ireland, students will analyze different perspectives and gain a deeper understanding of the responsibilities of leaders.
In addition, teachers will discover a comprehensive PowerPoint presentation that can be adapted to suit their audience. This resource covers topics ranging from food as a means of sustenance and the concepts of halal and tayyib, to building community through food and highlighting the plight of Gaza. Accompanied by notes for teachers, this presentation can also be used as an assembly.
In addition, the section on fasting and Gaza aims to promote empathy and gratitude while encouraging students to consider their role in promoting change and hope. The aim is to help students navigate these critical issues and build resilience.
Together, insha’Allah, our goal is to write, rewrite, revitalize, and disseminate carefully curated lessons for educators. ICI remains steadfast in its commitment to inspire, engage, and empower educators worldwide, collaborating with likeminded educators globally to reshape the narrative of education.
ICI aims to transcend the superficial application of Islamic verses and ethics, opting instead for a comprehensive curriculum created from a sound Muslim perspective, by Muslims for Muslims. We embark on a collective journey of unlearning and retraining, welcoming contributions and suggestions from educators worldwide.
Join us on this transformative journey where education becomes a powerful force for positive change. Tawfeeq billah.
