Tafseer for Kids - Tafseer of Soorah Al Masad Course

 

  بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

We started our Tafseer for Kids Course two years ago, exploring the  Tafseer of the three Quls with our young children, and maashaa Allaah, it was a mega hit.

We promised to continue with the Tafseer courses to complete Juzz Amma Soorahs. We are excited to announce our upcoming Nurture Islaam Tafseer course for kids on Soorah Al Masad.

This Soorah has tremendous benefits, and we can link it to the upcoming Hajj season as well. Children will enjoy learning some valuable historical pieces and learn other important skills, too. This is a Soorah that many young children have memorised, and knowing the explanation of its meanings while they recite it every day will no doubt bring them closer to the words of Allaah. Details below.

Training the Trainers: A Hands-On Workshop for Teaching Tawheed Effectively

   بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

A couple of years ago, Ustadh Mustafa George invited me to deliver a workshop for the educators in the New Jersey community on how to teach children Tawheed. His vision was to have me train fellow educators in using the Nurture Islaam books, starting with the most important topic: Tawheed. May Allaah reward him immensely for this initiative.

By the mercy of Allaah, we delivered our first-ever workshop on teaching Tawheed at the Ibn Qayyim Library, and it was a wonderful success. The sisters in New Jersey were truly inspiring with their interactive participation, Allaahumma baarik. Following that, many sisters reached out and asked if the same training could be offered online so others could benefit too.

Alhamdulillaah, I’m now pleased to announce that you can join this workshop online and benefit just as they did!

About the Course: Teaching Tawheed in Today’s World

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.

If you’re looking for our free Dhul Hijjah resources, you can grab them here:

Hajj
The Best Ten Days of the Year - Lapbook
Why are the First ten Days of Dhil Hijjah Special - Accordion Book
Story of Sacrifice and Story of Umm Ismaaeel and her Little Boy - Mini Books

Why is Dhul Hijjah Special - File Folder Lapbook - PreK

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.

📅 Access Duration: Available for 1 month from the date of release.

🗓 Release Date: 1st June 2025, in shaa’ Allaah

🌿 What Will Your Child Learn?

• 🌻 What is Charity in Islam?
  A gentle introduction to why giving is beloved in our faith.

• 🌱 Understanding the Hadeeth:
  “The Muslim is under the shade of his charity” – what does it mean and why is it so powerful?

Summer Camp for Children - 2025

      بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Going strong for the third year, Alhamdulillaah!

We’re back with another exciting and enriching experience for our young learners! Every year, our children’s summer camp brings stories of the Qur’an alive with interactive sessions and engaging activities — and this year promises to be even better, in shaa Allaah.

This summer, we’ll be exploring the extraordinary story of Prophet Sulaimaan (عليه السلام) — a Prophet blessed with wisdom, gratitude, and a kingdom like no other. From speaking to birds and commanding jinn to meeting the Queen of Sheba, children will explore powerful lessons of leadership, trust in Allah, and the wonders of His creation.

We are also thrilled to team up yet again with Maimoonah T – a young budding artist and an undergraduate in English and English Literature – who brings a passion for nurturing creativity in children. With her expertise, our little ones will explore hands-on skills, arts, crafts, journaling, and more – all rooted in meaningful learning.

Summer Camp for Teen Girls 2025

Our youth need to know and understand that the struggles they face today are not new. We have had excellent examples from the stories of the Qur’an to follow. 

Alhamdulillaah, we have teamed up with Umm Khadeeja from Mums Unstuck this summer to bring you an awesome summer camp for our teens. The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ advised us to make space for our youth, to welcome and embrace them — and we understand that our girls need support and guidance in a safe environment upon authentic knowledge.

Come and check out our one-of-a-kind summer camp this July, in shaa Allaah. Here are the details:

About the Instructor – Umm Khadeeja

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

As an advocate for continued professional development for mothers, she works with women to transform their parenting approach by focusing on their personal growth.

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.

Her approach isn't just about better parenting strategies; it's about nurturing the whole self to become more effective, confident, and fulfilled in your parenting role, because she believes when you grow, your children grow too.

We are honoured to collaborate with her in this year’s summer camp to support our growing pre-teens, teen girls, and young sisters. Through her sessions, they will learn how to understand, manage, and express their emotions. 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.

A truly valuable opportunity for our youth to connect, reflect, and grow — inside and out. In shaa Allaah. You can read more about Umm Khadeejah here https://mumsunstuck.com/
