Muhammad’s Legacy – KS3 Religious Education Lesson
This ready-to-use, fully editable PowerPoint lesson explores how Islam developed after the death of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). It’s perfect for KS3 students and works well as part of a wider unit on Islam, legacy and influence, or religious art.
The lesson begins with engaging starter questions that encourage reflection and retrieval, followed by clear, accessible information about the spread of Islam and Muhammad’s lasting influence. A thought-provoking plenary invites students to consider the Prophet’s legacy and what surprised them most in the lesson.
A standout feature of this lesson is the creative task, where students draw their names in an Islamic calligraphy-inspired style. They are encouraged to incorporate patterns and include a deliberate mistake, reflecting the Islamic belief that only Allah is perfect. This activity supports visual learners and deepens understanding of Islamic teachings in a memorable way.
Individual slides can be easily printed directly from the PowerPoint to create worksheets or handouts.
The lesson is easily adaptable for both classroom and remote learning, and it offers a great balance of critical thinking, cultural appreciation, and creativity.
A great resource for any teacher looking to bring Religious Education to life!
