Every Good Thing
Every Good Thing
book one · surah Ar Rahman
the world is full of good things, and tonight you are the one who shows her.
a little girl walks through an ordinary day and finds it quietly full of wonders, the sweet fig, the cool water, the calm round moon, each one a gift from Allah, who gives and gives because He loves her. you read it slowly at bedtime, and she drifts off certain of two things: that the world is full, not scarce, and that she is loved. few gifts you give her will last longer than that.
so many gifts from Allah. which one would you thank Him for first?
the kind of thing she will carry long after she has forgotten you were the one who read it to her.

a note from the publisher
nothing on these pages is there by accident. the child in the story is your child's own age, because that is who a small one learns from most. the words are chosen to be read aloud. each page is a single calm picture with room to breathe. and the lesson is always lived, never lectured, because that is how young children actually take something to heart. behind every twenty four page book is a long stretch of reading in two directions at once, the Quran and its tafsir on one side, and how children this age truly learn on the other.
inside every book: twenty four watercolour pages · one small Arabic word from the surah · a little dua in your child's words · one question to talk about.
why it works. children between four and seven do not learn best from rules, they learn from stories they can step inside, so the first meeting with the Quran is warmth and wonder, not fear.
