WHY PEARLS OF LIGHT
Helping Children Understand the Faith They Are Growing Up With
Children ask big questions. Why do we fast? Why do we pray? Why does Allah (SWT) test us? What can we learn from the Ahlulbayt (as)? Pearls of Light turns those questions into animated stories children can understand, while giving parents a trusted way to start meaningful conversations about faith at home.
