A Muslim is Under the Shade of his Charity - Workshop

        بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Jābir bin Abdillāh narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) said:

أَفْضَلُ أَيَّامِ الدُّنْيَا أَيَّامُ الْعَشْرِ

“The best days in the world are the ten days (of Dhul-Hijjah).” 

(Ibn Hibbān, Al-Bazzār, declared saheeh by Al-Albāni in Saheeh Al-Jāmi’, no. 133) 

Alhamdulillaah, the best days of the year are approaching soon, the blessed days of Dhul Hijjah!

Over the past years, we’ve offered many engaging workshops and resources to help children understand these special days. This year, we wanted to take it a step further, by helping children take action and earn real rewards in these blessed days.In shaa Allaah.

Instead of just learning about Dhul Hijjah, this workshop helps kids live it, by practicing generosity, giving sincerely, and learning how their small efforts can earn huge rewards with Allaah.

Now, let’s look into this special new workshop…

Nurture Islaam Online Workshop - The Muslim is Under the Shade of His Charity

We’re so excited to bring you a special workshop that highlights the essence of charity in Islam—not just as an act of giving, but as a deep, sincere form of worship that brings us closer to Allah.

Most Muslim children grow up thinking that charity is only about giving money. But this workshop takes them on a different journey—one that explores the connection between sincerity and charity, and how smart young Muslims can collect maximum rewards through everyday acts of kindness.

Through stories, hands-on activities, and visual learning, we’ll help children understand that charity is not a favour we do for others—rather, it’s a gift we give from the blessings Allah has given us. We’ll also teach them how to give charity with dignity, without ever humiliating or degrading the receiver.

💡 This is the online version of an in-person workshop we hosted with a homeschooling group recently, and now, your family can experience it from home! In shaa Allaah.

If you’re part of a homeschool community and want to run something similar in person, get in touch! We’d be happy to share how you can adapt this for your local group and make this Dhul Hijjah meaningful for your children.

🛑 This is NOT a live class.

Once you register and complete your payment, you’ll receive access to the full workshop on June 1st, 2025, in shaa Allah.

🎥 Your child will be able to watch a pre-recorded video filled with engaging visuals and stories, and access a full pack of printable resources.

Umm Khadeeja an ICF trained Parenting & Motherhood Growth Coach in the UK, with a background in CBT and somatic trauma informed leadership coaching.

With her unique blend of coaching, mentorship, somatic and cognitive-behavioural tools, she helps mothers to break free from destructive limiting thought and behaviour patterns that keep them stuck in negative cycles.

With her compassionate approach and practical tools, she will help guide our girls to develop emotional strength, self-awareness, and confidence — all within the boundaries of what is permissible in Islaam.
