'Hauna' word's use in Quran:

-

There is a preschooling curriculum which is named as 'Hauna'. This word is taken from Holy Qur'an. 

Below is a brief explaination about meaning of the word 'Hauna'.

Hauna can be understood as 'Humble', 'Humility' 'Gentle'.

Quote from the Holy Qur'an:
Al-Furqaan (25:63)

وَعِبَادُ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الَّذِينَ يَمْشُونَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ هَوْنًا وَإِذَا خَاطَبَهُمُ الْجَاهِلُونَ قَالُوا سَلَامًا

wa 'ibādur-raḥmānillażīna yamsyụna 'alal-arḍi haunaw wa iżā khāṭabahumul-jāhilụna qālụ salāmā

اور خدا کے بندے تو وہ ہیں جو زمین پر آہستگی سے چلتے ہیں اور جب جاہل لوگ ان سے (جاہلانہ) گفتگو کرتے ہیں تو سلام کہتے ہیں


English Translation:

(25:63) The true servants of the Merciful One are those78 who walk on the earth gently79 and when the foolish ones address them, they simply say: "Peace to you";80


English Tafsir:

Follow the number order mentioned in above translation, 78, 79,80.

78. That is, though all human beings are by birth the servants of the Merciful before Whom you have been invited to prostrate yourselves, and which you disdain, his true servants are those who adopt the way of His obedience consciously and develop such desirable characteristics. Then the natural consequences of the prostration are those found in the lives of the believers and the evil results of rejecting the invitation, those found in your lives. Here attention is being drawn to the two patterns of character and life. First of those who had accepted the message of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and were following it, and the second of those who persisted in the ways of ignorance. Here only the prominent characteristics of the true believers have been cited, and for contrast, the characteristics of the disbelievers have been left to every discerning eye and mind which could see them all around in the society and make its own decision.

79. That is; they do not walk haughtily and arrogantly like the tyrants and mischief-makers, but their gait is of a gentle, right thinking and good natured person. Walking humbly does not mean walking like a weak or sick person, nor does it imply the gait of a hypocrite who walks ostentatiously to show humility or fear of God. According to traditions, the Prophet (peace be upon him) himself used to walk with firm, quick steps. One day Caliph Umar saw a young man walking slowly like a weak, sick person, and asked him: Are you ill? When the man replied in the negative, the Caliph raised his whip, rebuked him and told him to walk like a healthy man. This shows that the humble gait is the natural gait of a noble and gentle person and not a gait which shows weakness and undue humility.

In this connection, the first characteristic of the true servants of Allah to which attention has been drawn, is their gait. This is because the gait indicates the character of an individual. If a man walks in a humble and dignified way, as opposed to a haughty, vain and proud manner, it shows that he is a noble and gentle person. Thus the different gaits of different types of people show what sort of characters they possess. The verse means to imply that the true servants of the Merciful can be easily recognized by their gait among the people. Their attitude of Allah’s worship and obedience has changed them so thoroughly that it can be seen at first sight from their gate that they are noble, humble and good natured people, who cannot be expected to indulge in any mischief. For further explanation, see (E.N.43 of Surah Bani Israil )and (E.N 33 of Surah Luqman).

80. “the ignorant people”: Rude and insolent people and not uneducated and illiterate ones. The true servants of the Merciful do not believe in vengeance, even though they may have to deal with the ignorant people who behave rudely and insolently towards them. If they happen to come across such people, they wish them peace and turn away. The same thing has been expressed in (Surah Al-Qasas, Ayat 55), thus: And when they hear something vain and absurd they turn away from it, saying, our deeds are for us and your deeds are for you, peace be to you, we have nothing to do with the ignorant. For details see (E.Ns 72 to 78 of Surah Al-Qasas).

Business Etiquette from Prophet Muhammed's ﷺ :

 * Prophet Muhammed's ﷺ Business Etiquette* - In Islam, trade has always been recognised as an important aspect of human life. Before revelation came to Prophet ﷺ, he earned his living as a trader. His integrity and veracity were quickly noticed by his employer, Sayyida Khadijah (RA), who later married him.  *★ Sadiq and Ameen* It was a result of his ﷺ honesty and noble character that he ﷺ was called as 'Sadiq' (truthful) and 'Ameen' (trustworthy) amongst the Makkans. Hazrat Abu Sufianؓ  (the bitterest enemy of Islam before he accepted Islam) said: "It is inconceivable for one who has never told a lie during his whole life to invent lies against Allah ﷻ. The Makkans agreed unanimously that Allah's Messenger ﷺ was a truthful person. Once before his conversion, Yasir (ra) asked his son Ammar (ra), where he was going. Ammar (ra) said that he was going to the Prophet ﷺ. Being fully satisfied of his son's safety while with him ﷺ, he replied: "Muhammad ﷺ...

We must circulate the money by rotating it whatever amount we have, instead of having desires to earn more:

 - August-04-2021. Today's learning: **Money controlling efforts:*   *Introduction:*  Islam has always reminded us to address the human problems by continuously checking and balancing the wealth, instead of remaining in the hands of few.So, the method of rotation must keep going on, in order to allow the free flow of money between all the people. No matter what, ultimately even after our great efforts to hoard it, one day or the other it's going to leave us eventually.  *Hard earned money:* Islam says that hard earned money's value is more loved by Allah subhanahu wa taala as was earned by Prophet Dawood (peace be upon him).Allah made the iron smooth for him to turn it into different shapes and make it a useful commodity/good. Once Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) was asked about the best job, and he replied by saying. "A job that is done by one's own hand,and every decent trade. Hadith Imam Ahmed (16628).  *Methods of utilising:* One could spe...

Planting the seeds of character, learning from our predecessors (Aslaf)-

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah (R.A) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Be devout and you will be the most pious of people. Be content and you will be the most grateful of people. Love for people what you love for yourself and you will be a believer. Behave well with your neighbours and you will be a Muslim. Laugh less, for too much laughter, will deaden the heart'.         Source: Sunan Ibn Mājah 4217,  One of the most important aspects of our predecessors is adherence to the prophetic teachings and heritage. They adhered to it and even to date, that period is known as the golden age of Islam.  The  Islamic Golden Age  was a  period  of cultural, economic, and scientific flourishing in the history of  Islam , traditionally dated from the 8th century to the 14th century. Its reality that never ever any non-Muslim population of Muslim ruled areas took any revolt against Muslim governments. Even Qaisr of Rome sent messages ...

Speaking in soft positive manner would not cost you anything but would enchant those you speak to and get rid of any ill feelings:

 There was once a king who saw in a dream that all his teeth had fallen out. He called a dream-interpreter, told him what he saw in the dream, and asked him to interpret it. When the interpreter heard the dream, his complexion changed and he began to repeat, “Allāh’s refuge is sought! Allāh’s refuge is sought!” The king became worried and asked, “What is the interpretation of my dream?” The interpreter said, “After many years pass, your wife and children will die and you will be all alone in your kingdom!” The king screamed, became furious, and began to hurl abuses and insults. He then ordered that the interpreter be imprisoned and called another interpreter, related to him what he saw in the dream and asked him for its interpretation. The dream-interpreter smiled and said, “Glad tidings, dear king!” The king said, “What is the interpretation of the dream?” The interpreter said, “It means that you will live for very long – so long that you will be the last of your family to die, an...

Since Allah knows what’s hidden in our hearts, it’s vain to show-off. • Beloved Prophet Muhammed ﷺ used to consume camel’s milk and flesh.

Though Prophet Muhammed ﷺ did not learn to read and write formally & traditionally, he ﷺ challenged them to bring Torah and prove the same if they were true. They couldn’t. • Sayyiduna Yaqoob (alaihissalam) himself forbade from consuming camel’s milk and flesh, and that wasn’t a prohibition from Allah.
