Being a father, I constantly search for meaningful approaches to impart to my children the core of our faith. Although internet materials abound, I would rather have something to hold, flick through, and read at night. I decided to test “40 Dua for Kids” after coming across a book at the Darularqam Book Store. Having used it with my children, I can now fairly say—that was a wise choice.
The title, “40 Dua for Kids,” describes what the book offers—a carefully chosen collection of forty key supplications (duas) every Muslim child should learn. Young readers would find the book perfect since it provides these duas easily and interestingly. Every dua is derived from real-life sources and aims to teach youngsters how to recall Allah throughout regular tasks.
Children’s Friendly Layout & Design
This book’s kid-friendly design by Darularqam Book Store is among the things I most like. Children will be able to grasp the simple enough translation; the font is easy to read; the Arabic language is clear and voweled. Every dua is accompanied by a brief justification of when and why to say it, therefore enabling children to link their behavior with their faith. Some pages also feature vibrant images meant to captivate younger readers.
A useful learning tool
Every night before bed and occasionally in the morning, we follow a daily ritual including using the book. My kids now find it a delightful and consistent approach to study and memorise duas; they have already acquired some that they report using on their own. I value how the book offers just enough to instruct and inspire without being overly long or complex, thereby avoiding overwhelming knowledge.
Fantastic for educators and parents
Whether you are a parent or a teacher in an Islamic school or madrasa, this book is a great tool to introduce duas in a disciplined yet gentle manner. For homeschooling families or weekend Islamic programs, it’s also a smart choice. Older children can read on their own; younger children, say four or five, can follow along with support.
Why I Suggest It
My encounter with “40 Dua for Kids” has been positive. I would thus suggest it for the following few purposes:
- Straightforward and real duas
- Easy Arabic for reading with translation
- Simple clarifications to help one grasp
- Beautiful and kid-friendly architecture
- Perfect for organizing a schedule around faith
Conclusions
Our house now loves “40 Dua for Kids” from the Darularqam Book Store. It has given my kids a greater relationship with Allah and made Islamic education fun for them. I suggest looking at this well-made, carefully written dua book for your children.
