Sometimes, the greatest acts of love are the ones children don't always see.
Abdullah feels disappointed. His dad is always rushing off to work, doesn't have much time in the mornings, and can't always pick him up after school. So when his teacher asks the class to make a "Jazak Allah Khair" card for someone special, Abdullah knows exactly who he wants to thank—his mum.
But as the day unfolds, Abdullah begins to understand the quiet sacrifices his father makes every day to provide for his family. He discovers that love isn't only shown through time spent together—it's also found in hard work, responsibility, and putting your family's needs before your own.
Beautifully written, this heartwarming story teaches children to recognise and appreciate the many ways parents express their love, even when those sacrifices often go unnoticed.
This book helps children to:
Understand the true meaning of gratitude in Islam.
Appreciate the sacrifices parents make for their family.
Recognise that love is shown in many different ways.
Develop empathy, thankfulness, and respect for others.
Be inspired to express gratitude through words and kind actions.
A touching story that celebrates the often-unsung role of fathers while reminding young readers to value both the visible and invisible ways their parents care for them. A wonderful addition to every Muslim family's bookshelf.
