	Lesson Begin by discussing with children the topic of charity. Which charities, if any, do they support? Which charities deserve support? Which countries are the most charitable? For many years now, the most charitable countries have been Islamic ones. Are the children surprised by this information? Why do they think this is? Each year, Muslims are required to give 2.5% of their total wealth to charity? What is the purpose of this? Ask the children able to work out how much that would be for them? They must include all of their valuable possessions and income. What do they think of this level of commitment to charity?
