Places

Adam and Eve are the names we give to the first man and woman to live on this world

and they were made from one self

one soul

And they had many children

and those children grew up and had children of their own

and the family of Adam and Eve grew and grew into the family of humankind

Well the thing about humankind is that they need all sorts of stuff to stay alive

They need water to drink and food to eat

and shelter from the weather

And as Adam and Eve's family of humankind grew and grew

they travelled the world in search of new places that could provide them with food and water

and a way of living comfortably with the weather

Now humankind was given a mind to understand the world and themselves

and they found all sorts of ways to stay alive in some very different kinds of places

For the world and its weather shape each other

And as humankind spread far and wide they became separated from each other

and slowly different branches of the family grew to speak different languages

and have different ways of understanding the world

And as they adapted to the different lands in which they lived

they took on different colours and shapes of body and face

and different branches of the family called themselves different clans or tribes, or nations

Now not only do the tribes of the family of humankind sometimes look different and speak different languages

but also they often have different ideas of what is a right and proper way to behave

Some tribes will think it is important to dress a certain way

while another tribe will have rules to make sure that you dress in another way entirely

And tribes usually have a part of the world that they call their own

in which anyone who goes to live there needs to follow that tribe's rules

even if they come from another tribe that thinks and lives quite differently

Caring for the world and all its creatures is a duty for all muslims

and in the Way of Islam it is understood

that people need to take care of the world

if they want to take care of themselves.

In what kinds of places do muslims make their homes?

What kind of weather do they live in?

Where do muslims live?

Where are they mostly muslim?
