Duas for Pious Children
A handy list! Great to print out and stick up somewhere 🙂
Muharram Resolutions
Every Muharram we take the opportunity to give ourselves resolutions for the year ahead. This year in the girls’ classes we asked them to pick 3 small things that they knew was good to do, and encouraged them to try and make it a habit by doing it over the next 40 days – from Ashura to Arbaeen.
May Allah accept our mourning for Aba Abdillah, and help us transform it into true knowledge and bettering ourselves, Inshallah.
Allah's Awesome Creation: Seed Germination
[56:63] Al-Wāqi‘ah-الْوَاقِعَة
“Well, give your view: the (seed) that you cultivate—”
[56:64] Al-Wāqi‘ah-الْوَاقِعَة
“Is it you who make (the crop) grow from it, or are We its Grower?”

Thoughtful Gift Ideas 48: Sponsoring an Orphan
We talked about giving charity, but how about specifically sponsoring an orphan as a gift to others?
This family did exactly that – this is definitely a gift that will keep on giving long after both the gifter and the recipients are gone..
Thoughtful Gift Ideas 46: Giftboxes to Refugees
This is by far one of my most favourite Thoughful Gifts!
Near the end of Ramadan, we invited the girls in our night classes to bring in a shoe box and we spent on evening decorating it and making Eid cards with a personal note inside. The girls then took them home and filled it with gifts – some suggestions were: Stationery/Stickers, Snacks/Sweets, Small notebooks, Small/soft toys.
They then brought it back to mosque and it was collected by Sufra NW London who then distributed them to Refugee children in the UK!
Here is a picture of them when they were brought back, alongside boxes of food bank items also, by those who followed Sufra’s Ramadan Giving Calendar where each day of the month, they put in an item.
Here’s hoping these awesome gifts put a smile on their faces at a time when things aren’t easy!
Thoughtful Gift Ideas 45: Messages
A little message can add so much meaning to a gift. This narration on friendship added that special touch!
Thoughtful Gift Ideas 44: Oud-ooni
Here is what Towards Jannah said about this gift!
“OUD’ooni Moments
This year like all years, my kids’ teachers at the mosque have been more than awesome! I’m forever indebted to them for the incredible difference they make!
The kids were taught Prophetic Duas, so we thought we’d give them this with a message saying:
“Thank you so much for teaching me awesome Prophetic Duas and helping me to increase and enrich my OUD’ooni (2:186) Moments”
The The World Federation of KSIMC Ramadhan Relief Raffle is just the perfect finishing touch needed to transform any gift to an eternal one InshA with a little perky chance of winning something too
