In Islam, before photographs how were children taught about living things?

Islam forbids the drawing or painting of any living thing. And some Islamic scholars don't agree with photography either. So how are children in Islamic schools taught about living things they cannot see?

    I don't know the answer entirely but I believe it was done by the art of language. People in middle eastern countries and the americas have long been praised for their abilities in story telling and I believe that is how they are or were taught about things.

    Salaam alaykum. i do no longer think of that that's useful to instruct them what proportion toddlers anybody prophet had. this isn't significant and that i do no longer think of this is a sturdy thank you to start their religious coaching. What ought to learn is perception interior the unseen - that must be the 1st component taught. so as that incorporates advent on the Oneness of God, how He has no helpers, no companions, and no toddlers. Then approximately Adam and Eve, the prophets and angels and how angels (particularly Angel Gabriel) performed a place interior the messengers' lives (ie. Jesus' concept, Mohamed and the revelations printed to him, etc). those are all needed first of all as those will sort the initiating of their information on Islam. Taking a while daily to communicate obligations that they ought to accomplish in this latest existence on an known basis could be stable, like respecting and obeying their mothers and fathers, being respectful to elders, no longer gossiping, etc.

    I have not heard that schools in Muslim countries do not have books with any pictures to depict living beings plants, animals or human forms. I am sure they have books just like everybody does, in other countries. They just do not have any pictures of Mohammad (Allah).

    They do edit every western book for pictures of women and anything which contradicts their medieval thinking. And they do add lot of intolerance, hatred , lies and garbage to be taught to their kids--that is for sure. And they do use the best coloured pictures to teach this thing.

    As a result, moderate muslims are being wiped out by growth of fundamentalists. There is a growing number of muslims who believe that 911 in America was caused by America and Israel to demean Muslims and get back at them. I am sure they used good quality video and digital pictures to teach this.

    What do you say ?

    They are not taught about anything except how to prepare for being married aged 10 and make babies aged 11. That's all Allah(pi$$ be upon him) requires.

    Islam is an evil modus vivendi and should be bombed back to the Stone Age. Come to think about it, Even Stone Aged people were more intelligent than modern day muslims, so it's doubtful if they'd have gone for that sh1t either.

    they used to soak the camels in paint and throw at cave walls. so the stamp mark can be seen. Islamic schools are dumb dens full of moon worships and only quran is the greatest parrots.
