Coursebooks 1–8: Core Teaching Texts ($14.99 each)

The coursebooks are the primary teaching resource. Each level builds progressively on the previous, taking students from foundational pillars of Islam through more detailed topics in fiqh, seerah, and Islamic character.

Workbooks 1–8: Reinforcement & Practice ($12.99 each)

Each workbook pairs directly with the corresponding coursebook level. Workbooks contain written exercises, activities, and review questions that consolidate lesson material. For classroom and homeschool use, both the coursebook and workbook are recommended together at the same level.

How to Choose the Right Level

• Starting out (ages 5–7): Begin with Coursebook 1 and Workbook 1. The series is sequential — each level assumes completion of the previous one.
• Continuing students (ages 8–10): Levels 3–5 address deeper topics in fiqh, seerah, and Islamic character. If your child completed Levels 1–2 elsewhere, consult their teacher before selecting a level.
• Level 6 — choose the correct edition: The curriculum splits at this stage into a Boys edition and a Girls edition to address gender-appropriate Islamic guidance. Select the matching workbook edition as well.
• Older students (ages 11+): Coursebook 7 and Coursebook 8 cover advanced Islamic topics and are suitable for older elementary and early middle school students.
• Coursebook alone vs. coursebook + workbook: A full level (coursebook + workbook) costs $27.98. The coursebook alone ($14.99) works for independent reading; both together are recommended for structured study.

Frequently Asked Questions

What age group is the An Nasihah Islamic Curriculum designed for?

The An Nasihah Islamic Curriculum is designed for primary and elementary school students, approximately ages 5–13. Level 1 suits children beginning formal Islamic education; Levels 7 and 8 are appropriate for pre-teens. Many Islamic schools and Muslim homeschool families use it as a year-by-year programme covering aqeedah, fiqh, seerah, and Quranic studies.

Do students need both the coursebook and the workbook?

The coursebook contains all lesson content and is the core teaching text. The workbook provides written exercises and review activities that reinforce each lesson. The workbook is a companion resource, not a standalone — it is designed to be used alongside the coursebook at the same level. For classroom and structured homeschool settings, both are strongly recommended.

Why does Level 6 have separate Boys and Girls editions?

At Level 6, the An Nasihah curriculum introduces topics related to Islamic guidance on puberty and personal development, which differ for boys and girls. The publisher has produced a Boys Coursebook and a Girls Coursebook, each with a matching workbook, so each student receives relevant and age-appropriate instruction.
