Lesson video

Hi, my name is Miss Speakman.

We're on lesson 12 of 14 of the human rights unit and in today's lesson, we're looking at revision.

So we'll be looking over quite a few of the different topics that we've looked at so far in the human rights unit.

So in this lesson, as I said, we'll recap the key content explored in this unit, but this will not cover everything in the unit.

I'll explain why in a moment.

So let's make sure that we are ready for our lesson.

So let's make sure we've got a pen or a pencil, a piece of paper, an exercise book, and a different colour pen ready for corrections.

But then we've also got a nice, clear, quiet working space.

So TV, music off, phone to one side if we're not using it for the lesson, and making sure we've got a nice quiet space to work in where somewhere, where somewhere is quiet, we're able to concentrate better and therefore we learn more.

So if you need to get yourself ready by getting any of those things, please pause the video now and on pause when you're ready to move on and start revising.

Okay.

Brilliant.

Okay.

We are ready to revise.

Let's get started then.

So you might be saying and thinking to yourself, "Why is it that Miss Speakman will not cover everything in one lesson? Surely if it's a revision lesson, we need to revise all of it." The reason behind this is because of cognitive science, this idea of cognitive load.

There's only so much our brains can handle at one point.

It's most likely about one to two to three things that are new at a time that can be held in our short term memory.

Otherwise, we're just going to forget it.

What we want to be doing is getting as much as possible into what we call our long term memory, which is said to be infinite.

Why that is possible is because we revisit things and go over things a lot, but if I tried to do everything in one lesson, it just wouldn't work.

You wouldn't retain a lot of the stuff that we looked at.

So looking at a couple of topics and doing tasks for each one of those topics will be really, really helpful and actually help them to learn that stuff better.

It will mean, of course, that you may have to go over some of these other topics we don't cover yourself, but that's part of revision anyway.

Just one revision lesson won't be enough for you to know everything you need to know for the human rights unit, ready for an exam.

All the topics will be covered in other lessons, though.

So in the next two lessons, lesson 13 and lesson 14, we do exam practise questions and we do what I call deliberate practise lesson, which practises key quotations, key words, and gets us to think about those different topics and application of those different topics.

So don't worry.

There'll be plenty of things for you to be doing to help you revise the whole unit and then, of course, hopefully your teachers as well will be providing you with revision materials, et cetera.

You'll be absolutely fine, but I only want to focus on a couple of different topics really, because I think that'd be more effective than trying to do everything at once.

So should we get started? We are going to cover religious freedom and censorship, the status of women in Christianity and Islam, poverty and human trafficking, and giving money to the poor.

So you can see that I've chosen sort of four main topics, because I think that those are the ones to focus on.

Also the recap lesson I did, lesson six of 14 in my Oak National Academy lessons, I covered some of the other topics that came up previously in that unit.

So if you're thinking that you enjoyed this lesson and found it really useful, and hadn't looked at my recap lesson, that's also really helpful lesson to look at when you're looking to revise it for this unit.

So we're going to cover these things today and hopefully you find it super, super useful.

We're going to start with.

I'm going to give you some multiple choice quickfire questions.

Essentially, what these are is, if you've not seen my videos before, is I give you a question.

There are two possible answers.

I read them out.

I think give you a countdown of three seconds.

After three seconds, you then point to the screen or say out loud which one you think is the correct answer and then we go through and say, "Yes, that's the correct answer," or "No, that's not." And it's a really good way of revising things, recapping things super, super quickly, a really good way of quickly highlighting which things we don't know, which things we do know.

So let's get started on those.

It is legal to express any religious or nonreligious belief in the UK.

Is that true or false? Three, two, one.

Yes.

That's true.

So it's legal to express any religious or nonreligious belief in the UK.

We are all free in the UK to say whether we believe something or don't believe something.

It is legal to express any religious or nonreligious belief in the UK even if it incites hatred, is that true or false? Three, two, one.

Good that it's false.

Actually illegal to express any religious or nonreligious belief, even if it incites hatred.

So although yes, we have the right to be able to speak freely about religion or no religion that should not then go into inciting hatred or violence.

Well done if you've got both of those correct.

We're now going to have a look at Christian and Muslim views on religious freedom.

Starting then with Christian views on religious freedom, we look at two main verses.

So the first verse is what Christians refer to as the Great Commission, a command or sometimes by some Christians called an ordinance of Jesus to go out and spread the good news of the Gospel to other people.

So it says in this verse, He said to them, "Go throughout the whole world and preach the Gospel to all people." So Christians believe that they are taught by Jesus to go and evangelise.

What this means is to go out and to tell other people about Jesus, to tell other people about the gospel, to tell other people that Jesus died on the cross for sentence, et cetera.

And many Christians have the view that those who believe in Jesus' sacrifice, His crucifixion, His resurrection, will go to heaven.

And so some Christians believe that they should evangelise to help people to get to heaven.

Many Christians also believe, though, that that is not needed to go to heaven, but still important to teach others about the faith.

So at first glance, for some people, this might seem like Christians are saying that they want to force people to essentially become a Christian, but many Christians say this isn't the case.

This is just telling people the good news of Christianity, to evangelise, to encourage people to become a Christian, but not to force people.

And so therefore many Christians say that religious freedom is very important because it should be a personal choice for someone to come to Jesus, for someone to become a Christian.

And then also we have the verse in Galatians, which says, "So there's no difference between Jews and Gentiles.

You are all one in union with Christ Jesus." This is a verse I refer to so often in the human rights unit, because it's so useful for so many topics.

Essentially here it's saying there's no difference between the Jews and the Gentiles.

The Gentiles are the non-Jews.

So in that you're all wanting in union with Christ Jesus.

Essentially many Christians interpret this to be as they're all part of God's creation there's no difference between them.

It doesn't matter which religion you belong to because God loves and has compassion for all people.

What we're going to do then is we're going to pause and bring this together with some questions.

No, we're not.

No.

Bad, Miss Speakman.

I've forgotten about Islam, haven't I? Been a long day already.

Sorry.

Before we go on and do any questions.

You're probably thinking, "I don't want do any questions yet." I'll teach you about Islam first and we'll recap religious views, Islamic views on religious freedom.

So in Islam, we've got two verses we're going to refer to again.

We've got the first one from the Qur'an which says there should be no compulsion acceptance of the religion.

Essentially, what this means is compulsion is the idea.

From that word, compulsory, means you have to do it.

In this verse it's saying there's no compulsion in accepting the religion.

So you're not forced and cannot be forced to follow Islam.

Many Muslims have this idea that if they speak to someone about Islam, if they want to try and make some.

If they want to try and encourage someone to become a Muslim, then they can only speak to them three times seriously about it before they are therefore no longer allowed to ask them.

So that then doesn't feel like someone is being forced into it.

Many Muslims will say that everyone is born Muslim and that those who follow another faith, if they decided to become a Muslim, they would say instead of converting to Islam, they'd be reverting to Islam, going back to what they were created to be.

So many Muslims believe that anyone who comes to Islam would be a revert rather than a convert.

But many Muslims say you cannot force someone to follow Islam because submission is about genuinely having that sincere want to submit to Allah, not just to be forced into it.

There are some however sort of slightly problematic verses once you first look at them in the Qur'an and also in the Bible and many other religious texts that might make people think actually it looks as though they want to force people into the religion.

So this verse here says, "Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the last day." And at first glance, that looks like it's saying to Muslims they're allowed to fight those or kill those who don't believe in Allah, who don't follow Islam.

However, this is where context is very, very important.

What we mean by is the situation at the time that this verse was revealed to Muhammad, the same with other religious texts.

What is the backstory behind it? What's the verse before it and after it? What sort of narrative is it part of? This verse is specifically talking about when the Romans were persecuting Muslims back in the time of Muhammad.

They weren't allowed to practise Islam and were being killed for their faith.

This first was revealed to Muhammad as a command from Allah to say that he was allowed to then fight and kill those who were persecuting him.

Many Muslims would say that this does not apply to a general rule to now.

So that many Muslims said this doesn't apply to anyone who doesn't believe in Allah.

It refers to when there was persecution.

Some Muslims, however, may say that it does have a general rule.

So we can't just say all Muslims would ignore it.

Some Muslims may say that it does mean that they should be able to force people or harm people who don't follow the religion.

But the majority of Muslims said this is not what that verse means.

It's not for us to reply this to a general rule.

Now we're going to do those questions I was talking about.

So now I know what's going on.

We're going to move onto some questions just to bring this together, just to make sure you're 100% clear on what Christianity and Islam teaches about religious freedom.

So let's move on to that.

Okay.

What I'd like you to do here then is answer the following question.

Spend about four minutes on this.

I'd like you to do is summarise views on religious freedom in Christianity and in Islam.

So write in full sentences, please, just to summarise what we've just talked through.

We'll go through the answers in a moment.

So pause the video now, please.

Around four minutes to summarise the views in Christianity and Islam on religious freedom.

Unpause when you ready to move on.

Okay, so please make sure you've got your different kind of pen out ready for corrections and we'll go through it together.

It's always really good to make sure you correct things just because, obviously, the more we correct where there are things to correct, the more we learn from it.

So let's have a look.

So most Christians believes that religious freedom is important and teaches that there's no difference between Jews and Gentiles, whoever Christians are encouraged to evangelise and spread the good news of the faith as some belief you need to believe in Jesus to be saved.

Many Muslims, believe there's no compulsion in the religion and that they cannot force someone to revert to Islam.

Some believe the Qur'an teachers to fight those who do not believe, although most Muslims believe this is a verse revealed at a specific time in Islamic history and is not a general rule.

So if you need to make any corrections, please do so now by pausing the video and then unpausing when you are ready to move on to our next question.

Okay, brilliant.

Let's move on then.

So I want you to pause the video on next slide to complete your task.

I'm going to give you the instructions for this.

So, before you pause on the next slide, I'll give you the instructions, all the instructions you need for our next task.

So I want you to copy and complete the following paragraph.

This is about roles of women within Christianity.

And as you can see there, there are some gaps and the missing words are at the bottom in pink.

You need to copy and complete the paragraph.

It'd be really good idea as well if you could put the missing word in different colour, use, you know, different colour pencil.

Make it really clear which ones are the words that you've added.

What I like to do please is to pause the video, copy and complete the paragraph, then unpause when you have completed the paragraph.

Okay, let's get our different coloured pens out ready for corrections.

Let's check that our gaps are in the right place.

I'm sure they are, but always best to check and always best to read it through together as well, just to make sure we understand what it is saying.

So the traditional Christian view of the role of women is that they do not have authority over men and should stay at home and look after the children.

Evidence for this can be found in 1 Timothy which says that women should keep quiet and have no authority over men, as well as interpretation of the Genesis story in which Eve is created as a helper for Adam.

Another Christian view of the role of women is that they're equal to men and that men and women can have interchangeable roles.

Neither men nor women have authority over the other.

Evidence for this can be found in Galatians, which states that there's no difference between men and women.

You were all born in union with Christ Jesus.

So what you're going to need to do is read through this paragraph.

If there are any corrections to make, please make sure you're making those corrections now and you going to need to do that by pausing the video and unpausing when you are ready to move on and we'll look at the views on the roles of women within Islam.

Looking now then at Islamic teachings on the roles of women.

We've looked at Christianity.

Now we're going to look at Islam.

The first verse within the Qur'an says, "Never will.

I allow you to be lost the work of any worker among you with a male or female.

You are of one another." So this refers to the Islamic belief of how human beings were created.

Many Muslims believe that humans were created with equal value, but we're not the same.

But it's saying specifically here, "You are of one another." So you're both part of the human race.

You're both loved and cared for by God.

And it's saying that it doesn't matter whether you're male or female, any good works that they do will be recognised by God, not just because they're male or female.

This is also referred to in the Qur'an as well, where it says, "In whoever does righteous deeds, whether male or female, or being a believer, those will enter paradise and will not be wronged." Again here, it's sort of reiterating the idea that men and women are of equal value and it's those deeds that set you apart, not whether you're male or female.

So it's the idea that it's your good works, your good things that you do in life, whether you've submitted to Allah properly, whether you're loyal, which sets you apart, not whether you are of particular gender or sex.

So in Islam, the idea is that men and women are of equal value, but not the same.

And I've explained this before in my other videos, but I think is a really good way to explain it, so I'm going to do it again.

These two pens I bought in a shop were the same price.

And so they equal in value, aren't they? If they're the same price, they're equal in value, but they're not the same, are they? One is red.

No, this one's red.

This one's black.

Okay, so then equal in value.

They're worth the same, but they are different.

And I also use them for different purposes.

I use this one for writing just normal things and this one for my corrections, and hopefully you do something similar too when you're writing for your answers for this lesson.

So they are of equal value, but not the same.

And Muslims believes that human beings are designed by Allah with different physical characteristics and different purposes, just like my pens.

And so within Islam, the role of the woman traditionally, is that she looks after her husband, provides films..

Films? Provides meals for the family, looks after the children and raises the children within the faith, looks after the home, et cetera.

This is seen as equal in value as the role of the man who goes out to work and provides financially for the family.

Of course, Islam teaches that if you didn't have either of those then you wouldn't have a working household.

A man not providing money for the family means the family will not be able to essentially have the food, have the house, et cetera.

And if the woman doesn't say at home and look after the children, provide for the family, cook meals, et cetera, the household doesn't work in the same way.

So Islam teaches that those have equal value, but they are different and therefore the traditional ideas of men and women is that man goes out and provides financially for the family.

Woman stays at home, looks after the house.

Those roles are of equal value.

What we are going to do with that then is we're going to bring this all together.

I'm going to do some more questions on the role of women.

And then we'll move on to looking at poverty, human trafficking, and then we will have a really, really good idea of quite a lot of the stuff that we've done so far in this unit.

So are we ready to move on to some questions? We're going to answer the following questions about the role of women within Islam.

There are two questions.

They've both got some sentence starters for you as well.

So if you're struggling to know how to start to answer the question, those sentence starters will be really helpful for you.

So what is the traditional Islamic view on the role of women and why does this view exist? And what do Muslims believe about the value of men and women and what evidence is there for this? So I want you to answer the following questions.

Use those sentence starters.

Write in full sentences, please.

Spend about five minutes on this.

You can absolutely do this.

Looking forward to seeing you again soon when you've unpaused so we can go through the answers.

Okay, please have your different coloured pen out ready for corrections, and we're going to go through the answers together.

So it's okay if you found a little bit tricky, but we'll go through the answers together just to make sure we've got everything there on the Islamic views on the roles of women.

So the traditional Islamic view of the role of women is women look after the home and the family, including looking after her husband, preparing food, and teaching the children about Islam.

Evidence for this is that many Muslims believe Allah has designed men and women with different characteristics and purposes.

Many Muslims believe that men and women are of equal value to God as they're all part of his creation.

Evidence for this is that in the Qur'an it says and, "Whoever does righteous deeds, whether male or female, while being a believer, those will enter paradise and will not be wronged." This shows that it's your deeds that get you into paradise and not whether you are male or female.

Please make sure then that you have made corrections if you need to make corrections.

It doesn't have to be word for word like mine, but the more sort of key things you have in there, key teachings such as the idea of what the role of the woman is, the idea that Allah designed men and women with different characteristics and purposes, equal value, et cetera, those are the key parts.

You need to make sure you've those in your answer.

Please pause the video now.

Make corrections if you need to.

Unpause when you're ready to move on and we're going to start looking at the causes of poverty and people trafficking.

Okay.

We're going to move onto looking at the causes of poverty now, and what I would like you to do is spend about three minutes on this question.

Can you think of as many different causes of poverty? I'd like you to write down as many as you can think of.

This can be a bullet point list.

I want to spend about three minutes on this.

So please pause the video now.

Can you write down as many causes of poverty as you can think of? Unpause when you're ready.

Okay.

Amazing.

Let's have a look at my list then and compare it to your list.

So a lack of food and clean drinking water.

Some people might think this is an effect of poverty, but it also can also can also be a cause of poverty.

Whether it's a lack of food, people don't have the energy to be able to work.

Whether it's a lack of clean drinking water, which means often people will suffer from diseases that are waterborne diseases.

All suffer from something that we might find slightly frustrating when we have it, things like diarrhoea or sickness bugs, but this can actually be a large cause of death in LEDCs.

So this would then mean that they are often ill and cannot work, or even if people have to go a long way to collect water.

So it could be hours at a time to and from to collect water.

It means then there's a lack of education and a lack of being able to work, which then of course causes poverty because you're unable to work.

Greed is a cause of poverty, a lack of infrastructure.

So perhaps maybe not having certain facilities like schools, hospitals, but also the infrastructure of buildings not being very secure.

So if there were natural disasters that would have caused destroyed buildings.

Countries borrowing money at high interest rates is a large cause of poverty because the countries are paying back their debts rather than being able to invest in their own country.

Corrupt government leaders who perhaps, maybe don't distribute wealth out, fairly.

LEDCs where people often work for little pay.

Perhaps some places may work for any one peer day equivalent.

War can be a huge cause of poverty because it can harm the environment and destroy cities, et cetera.

And also a large number of deaths means less people to work.

Natural disasters and unemployment can be causes of poverty.

You, of course, might have come up with other ones, too.

That's absolutely fine.

If you wanted to pause now and add any of those to your list, then you can do so now then unpause it when you are ready.

Okay.

What we're going to do now is move on to different views on human trafficking.

So we're going to look at Christian and Muslim views about people trafficking, human trafficking, people trafficking can be used interchangeably.

Now again, I'm going to refer to Galatians 3:28, which says, "There is no difference between Jews and Gentiles, between slaves and free people, between men and women.

You are all one union with Christ Jesus." Essentially, where human trafficking is the illegal movement of people which can also include slavery, sexual exploitation, the harvesting of human organs, illegal work, et cetera.

In this verse, essentially saying you were all one in Christ Jesus, you should all be treated fairly.

You're all you're all loved by God.

There's no difference between slaves and free people.

Many Christians would say this exploitation of people is wrong.

It's not showing compassion.

It's not loving.

In Psalms we see this verse.

"Defend the rights of the poor and the orphans.

Be fair to the needy and to the helpless." We can easily say that those people who are a victim of human trafficking are needy and helpless.

They are in need of someone to help them to get them out of that situation.

They are being exploited and many Christians believe that they should be defending the rights of those who need help.

This could be lobbying governments to deal with it.

It could be raising awareness.

It could be giving money to charities that help those who are victims of human trafficking.

But many Christians believe it's a duty to help those who are being exploited.

In Islam, Sharia law calls for the welfare and wellbeing of all human beings.

Essentially says that everyone should be treated fairly and equally.

Muslims believe that Sharia law comes from God and can never be unjust.

So we believe that they should be following this and helping people at all times.

In the Qur'an it says, "Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conduct, giving to relatives, forbids immorality, bad conduct, and oppression." Now we can see here that people trafficking, human trafficking is not just.

It's the unfair, illegal movement of people.

In many cases, people are exploited from a young age, enslaved, which is not just.

and we can also say that it's oppressive too.

It's taking away people's rights.

So many Muslims also believe that they have a duty to help those who are victims of people trafficking and human trafficking.

What we're going to do with some of these verses I've got here is just make sure that we are 100% clear how we could use this verse to argue that Christian and Muslim views about people trafficking.

So we're going to move on to that.

Now I'm going to give you instructions and we'll get started on some work.

We're going to spend about five minutes on these two questions.

Essentially what I've given you are two quotations, which are referring to people trafficking or human trafficking.

We can use them to talk about human trafficking.

And what you're going to do is explain how this verse shows, first of all, Christian views on human trafficking.

And the second of all how the Qur'an verse shows Islamic views on human trafficking.

So the verses are, "Defend the rights of the poor and the orphans, be fair to the needy, and the helpless," from Psalms. And the second one from the Qur'an, "Indeed Allah orders justice and good conduct, giving to relatives, and forbids immorality, bad conduct and oppression." Essentially, what I want you do for both of those is explain how this shows Christian, Islamic views on human trafficking.

So I want you to pause the video now.

Please spend about five minutes on this.

Then unpause when you are ready to move on and have a look at the corrections, please.

Okay, please make sure you've got your different coloured pen out ready for corrections or be ready to correct.

Well done for working so hard.

Let's have a look then at the answers.

So for the first in Psalms, we could say this verse shows Christians should be defending the rights of those who are exploited, including those who are involved in people trafficking.

It talks there doesn't it about the needy and the helpless and we can say those people who are being exploited are definitely helpless and in need of people to help them.

The second verse shows Muslims that they should not be oppressing people and should look for justice for all people.

Human trafficking is unjust so many Muslims believe they should help those who are in that situation.

This idea, you know, he orders justice and forbids oppression.

It is oppressive to exploit people through human trafficking.

If you need to make any corrections, please pause the video and do so now.

Then when you unpause, we're going to start looking at poverty and the idea of helping those within poverty.

Okay.

So the next task I'm going to get you to do is dealing with the issues of poverty.

Here are some methods we might use for short or long term aid.

Remember that short term aid is dealing with the immediate effects of poverty.

Perhaps, maybe that's something that occurred in a natural disaster or in famine, for example.

And then long term aid is dealing with the causes of poverty.

So looking to eradicate the cause of poverty, rather than dealing with the effects of poverty.

For each of these, I want to you write them down and tell me whether you think it's an example of short term or long term aid, please.

And then in a moment, we'll go through the answers together to make sure that we are absolutely sure which one is which.

So pause video now for me, please.

Spend about five minutes on this maximum and then unpause when you are ready and we'll look through the answers together.

Okay, please have your different colour pen out, ready for corrections.

We'll double check whether these are all correct.

We'll talk through them as well so it's nice and clear.

So providing food is short term, as it only deals really in crisis and giving people food, obviously it will run out.

Building a well is long term aid because it provides water for a prolonged period of time.

Cancelling international debt is long term because essentially this means that if you cancel international debt, those countries can then start to spend money on their own countries and their own people, rather than trying to pay off countries who they owe money to.

Providing medical supplies is short time 'cause those will run out and providing the supplies means there still will be people within that country perhaps maybe aren't trained in medicine to help those people long term.

Providing farm animals is long term because they can use them as a source of food, such as a goat or a cow for milk.

Building a dam is long term 'cause that could help prevent natural disasters, but also it could help with providing water.

Building a school is long term, which of course allows education, which allows the furtherment of that and development of that country.

Providing water, again, like food, is short term.

Loaning building equipment is short term because you'd have to give it back and often have to pay for the loan of it too.

Training new doctors is long term, that you have more people than the country trained in the medical profession that can help people.

Giving farming and fishing tools is long term because then they can self provide, get their own food, and essentially farm their own land.

And providing temporary shelters is short term.

This of course is a temporary shelter.

It doesn't help with the infrastructure of their buildings.

So if you need to make any corrections, please do so now by pausing the video.

And after this I'm just going to test you very quickly on how many you can remember of short term and long term aid.

Now that you have written down your short term, long term, and you've checked your answers, I'm now going to test you and see if you can name for me, please, three types of short term aid and three types of long term aid.

I do not want you to look at the work you've just done.

I want try and do this from your memory.

The more we do that sort of work, doing it from our memory rather than copying, the better you will remember it and the longer you remember it for.

I promise you that.

I know that it works.

Copying it doesn't actually keep it in your brain for as long as you'd like it to.

So, I'm want you to cover over the work you've done before.

Spend about three minutes, please, telling me three types of short term aid, three types of long term aid.

So pause video now.

Do that for me please, then we'll go through the answers.

Okay? Good.

I'm trusting you that you didn't look.

I really, really trust you.

Okay? Because you will learn so much better that way.

If you did look a little bit, if you peeked, then I want you to be super honest when we're going through the answers and don't give yourself a mark for, okay? I'm going to be that strict.

Let's have a look.

Oh, now I need to disappear, don't I? So providing food is short, building a school is long term aid, building a well is long, providing water short term, cancelling international debt is long term, loaning building equipment is short term, providing medical supplies is short term, training new doctors is long term, providing farm animals is long term, giving farming or fishing tools is long term, building a dam is long term, and providing temporary shelters is short term.

If you need to now pause and make any corrections, please do so or to give yourself your marks.

There's a maximum of six marks.

Remember I said, be honest if you peeked and to not give yourself the full marks.

So once you've done that, unpause, and we'll be ready to move on and we'll be looking at giving to the poor.

I'm just going to pop back up again on my screen.

There we go.

So giving to the poor in Christianity obviously is linked to this idea of short term and long term aid.

Why might Christians feel motivated to give to the poor? Now in Corinthians it says you should each give then as you've decided, not with regret, right, or a sense of duty, for God lives loves the one who gives gladly.

Many Christians believe this refers to the idea that it's not a duty to give charity, but many believe that when you do give charity to be given gladly because you genuinely want to help other people.

Some Christians believe that the Old Testament teaches that they should tithe.

Tithe is giving 10% of one's income to charity.

So some Christians do believe it's a commandment to give tithe and others believe it's not.

So mostly within Christianity it's a choice whether or not Christians want to tithe or not.

In the parable of the sheep and the goats, Jesus essentially says that God will separate people as a shepherd separates the sheep and the goats.

The sheep are like the good people who help those who are poor, give food to the poor, clothe the homeless, help the sick, et cetera.

And they will go to heaven.

The goats are the bad people who don't help anyone when they're in need and will go to hell.

So essentially here, Jesus is saying that God judges based on how we help people and whether we not we show compassion.

And then in the Bible, Jesus is teaching love your neighbour, one that I say is very good teaching to use, if you use it properly, 'cause everyone knows love your neighbour.

Let's make sure we like use add it's really high level.

When we talk about love your neighbour, Jesus is referring to agape love which is selfless, sacrificial, unconditional love.

Christians believe this is the same sort of love that God shows to humans, essentially says that people should not care whether they are near, far, whether they know this person or not, whether they like this person or not, that love should be given to all people and therefore many Christians believe that they should help other people by giving to the poor, as this is showing agape love.

In Islam, a similar idea then that is seemed to be good to help people.

But there is something, sort of like another level to Islam in terms of tithe isn't seen by all Christians as a commandment, Zakah is.

So the Qur'an, it says, "To parents do good.

And to the relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbour, the neighbour farther away, the companion at your side, to the traveller." Essentially here it's very clear that any charity or giving to the poor or helping those should be done to all people, the needy, the relatives, the people close to you, the people far away, because essentially here it's saying that every part of you, is every one of you as part of creation.

Now Muslims, believe it is a duty to give Zakah.

Zakah is one of the five pillars of Islam, this obligation to pay 2.

5% of your idle wealth to charity at the end of the year.

This of course is done by those who can afford it and those who can't afford it are the ones who receive Zakah.

Muslims may also believe that it's good to give voluntary charity, which is called Sadaqah.

This might be given in any time where a Muslim feels that they want to give help in past.

Maybe a natural disaster or a crisis, or perhaps maybe in return for perhaps maybe they can't fast that year.

They might get may give Sadaqah instead.

And Shia Muslims believe that they should be given Khums on top of Zakah, which is one fifth of monetary gains.

In the Qur'an, it says Zakah expenditures are only for the poor and for the needy.

There's a list that goes on from that verse, but I thought we'd just pulled that out just talk about why Muslims believe it's so important to give to the poor because essentially Zakah payments help those.

Muslims believe that every person is part of the Ummah.

Ummah essentially translates from Arabic to mean brotherhood or community.

Muslims believe this refers to the past, present, and the future Ummah.

The past members of the Ummah would have done things to help the present and the present should help the future by leaving the world in a good state so that the future is good too.

What we're going to do then is do some questions to bring this together again.

So I am going to disappear and then we'll get started on those questions.

Okay, so to have a look at our learning on giving to the poor, we're going to answer the following questions, spending about five minutes on these questions.

So what do Christians believe about giving to the poor? What is tithing? Do all Christians pay this? What do Muslims believe about giving to the poor? What is Zakah? How does this help the poor? You've got some sentence starters there to help you as well.

I want you to use those so you can build up your answers.

So what I'd like you to do is to pause the video, spend five minutes on this, unpause when you're ready to go through corrections, please.

Okay, brilliant.

Let's make sure we've got different colour pen out ready for corrections.

And we'll go through the answers together.

Let's have a look.

Christians believes that they should help those who are poor because this is showing agape love.

They believe they should do this gladly, not because it's a duty.

Tithing is giving 10% of your income to the poor.

Christians don't have to pay this because many Christians believe it's not a commandment.

Some do believe this, though, and do give tithe.

Muslims believe they should help the poor by giving regular Zakah payments.

This helps care for the Ummah and treat everyone as equal in value and Zakah who is giving 2.

5% of idle wealth every year to charity.

This helps the poor because they receive the Zakah payments and they do not have to pay Zakah themselves.

If you need to make any corrections, can you please pause the video now and do that for me, please? And then we will move on.

Thank you very much.

I want to say a huge thank you for your lesson today and for working so hard.

We've covered quite a lot today.

Done quite a lot of writing.

I am very, very proud of you and I really hope it's been helpful in helping you to revise this unit for your GCSE.

As I said before, if you want us to go back to the recap lesson, which is less than six of 14 of my lessons, then that might be helpful too, with advising other content.

Please do make sure that you have a look at my lesson 13 and 14, the exam question lesson, and the deliberate practise lesson as that will also help you revise for this unit.

Thank you again for working so hard.

I'm looking forward to seeing you again soon, hopefully.

Goodbye.
