Ramadan

By: Misi, Simi

What Is Ramadan? is a delightful, dialogue-driven children's book that introduces young readers (ages 4-8) to the magic and meaning of Ramadan through the eyes of curious 4-year-old Ali and his loving family.

Engaging Family Story

When Ali notices his family bustling with preparations-stirring pots, hanging lanterns, arranging prayer mats-he asks, "What's Ramadan?" Through warm conversations, Dad shares how Ramadan began with the Prophet Muhammad receiving the Qur'an in the Cave of Hira, Mama explains fasting's lessons of patience and kindness, and big sister Aisha reveals the crescent moon's role in starting and ending the holy month. Ali's thoughtful questions about no food, no water, and moon sighting make the learning natural and relatable.

Beautiful Illustrations & Learning Moments

Each page bursts with whimsical watercolor-style art showing cozy modern home scenes: kitchen excitement, lantern-lit story circles, daytime fasting explanations with helpful side-panel visuals, magical moon-gazing by the window, and joyful iftar gatherings. The story builds to Ali's excitement about sharing dates with neighbors and celebrating Eid.

Perfect for Ramadan Sharing

Ideal for bedtime reading during Ramadan, this 6-page book teaches Islamic traditions simply and joyfully. Encourages family discussions about thankfulness, generosity, and community-helping even the youngest children feel included in this special time. A heartwarming addition to any Muslim family's library
