✦ Every surah
All 114 of them, in order.
✦ Stories
Prophets and companions, told for children.
Yunus and the Whale
A prophet left his city in anger, was swallowed by a great fish, and from three layers of darkness spoke the dua that Allah promised never to leave unanswered.
The Parable of the Two Gardens
A man with two magnificent gardens forgot the One who grew them — and his poorer companion gave him the reminder that outlived both gardens.
The Three Men and the Rock
Trapped in a cave by a fallen boulder, three men called on Allah by the most sincere deed each had ever done — and the rock moved.
Uthman and the Well of Rumah
When Madinah's Muslims had to pay for sweet water, Uthman bought the well and made it free for everyone, forever — a charity still flowing today.
Al-Amin and the Black Stone
Years before revelation, Makkah's clans drew swords over who would place the Black Stone — until the young man they all called "the Trustworthy" solved it with a cloak.
The Bedouin in the Mosque
A desert man did the unthinkable in the Prophet's mosque. The companions leapt up to stop him — and the Prophet ﷺ taught them, and us, the power of a gentle word.
