My First Book about the Qur'an
A unique product for this age group. Other books have been produced that introduce stories from the Qur'an for slightly older children but this book offers young children basic teachings from the Qur'an.
Has the potential to be a 'must-have' book for all Muslim parents.
Focuses on the universal messages that are common to all faiths - peace and love - and manners that we all wish for our children - to look after the environment, care for our family, friends and neighbors.
Split into three parts: 1 - Allah created everything, 2 - Allah guides us, 3 - what Allah wants Muslims to do.
It is illustrated in a way that is common to many Christian children's books (the illustrator worked on a Bible book for children in the UK) and will not feel out of place in a mainstream bookshop.
This book will be significantly cheaper than the alternatives for slightly older children and is priced to sell in volume.
Includes a page at the end of the book that introduces the Qur'an and answers some questions children might ask about it.
Sara Khan was born in Stuttgart, Germany, before moving to the UK at the age of 12. Fluent in German, Arabic and Urdu, Sara is both a bestselling author and a qualified translator. She holds a first-class BA (hons) in Linguistics and Arabic, as well as a MA in Translation and Interpreting Studies both from the University of Manchester. As part of her degree, Sara lived in Amman, Jordan, with her husband Naveed, and studied Arabic at the University of Jordan. Living in Jordan enabled them to travel across the Middle East and experience numerous Muslim cultures, traditions, and historic sites in places such as Cairo, Damascus, Jerusalem, Madinah and Makkah. Her postgraduate research focused on Qur’an translation and adaptation for children. Now the proud mother of a little girl called Raya, Sara aims to build upon her academic background and personal experience to help fill the gap when it comes to presenting Islam to toddlers and young children in an age-appropriate way.
