🎨 About the Book
As a parent, we all cherish the desire to nurture a deep love for Islam in our children's hearts. We want them to understand the beauty and significance of our faith, to feel connected to our rich history and traditions, and to grow up to be kind, compassionate, and God-fearing individuals. And what better way to do that than by introducing them to one of the most important pillars of Islam – the sacred pilgrimage of Hajj.
We understand that explaining the intricacies of Hajj to young children can be a daunting task. That's why we've created this delightful book to make learning about Hajj a joyous and engaging experience for kids of all ages.
