The Action Cycle (Reflect - Choose - Act) is an integral part of the IB PYP Curriculum Framework.
The life of Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and the wisdom of the Quran both provide ample opportunities for students to reflect on their actions, make better choices in light of Islamic teachings, and take action to address issues they witness at school, at home, and in the world at large. Action in the IB PYP is an invitation for students to look within themselves at their own hearts, as well as to consider the society around them.

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
الْبِرُّ حُسْنُ الْخُلُقِ وَالإِثْمُ مَا حَاكَ فِي صَدْرِكَ وَكَرِهْتَ أَنْ يَطَّلِعَ عَلَيْهِ النَّاسُ
Righteousness is good character and sin is what waivers in your heart and you hate for people to find out about it.
