What is A Little Girl's Prayers about?

A Little Girl's Prayers is an Islamic audiobook for children aged 4 to 9 that follows a little girl through her day as she talks to Allah, thanking Him for beautiful things and asking Him for what she needs.

She knows that Allah listens every time she prays. On a bright morning, with the flowers blooming, she asks Him to fill her day with joy. She prays for the people and animals who are hungry, and asks Allah to help her share with them. When it rains, she thanks Him for the grass and the rain, and for her eyes, ears, nose and mouth. She asks Him to make her as beautiful inside as He made her outside.

At school she prays for her friends, her teachers and the bus driver. When her friend is ill, she remembers that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ told us to visit the sick, so she takes her friend a gift and prays for her to get better. She asks Allah to love her mum and keep her safe. At bedtime she thinks about her day: she is happy with the good things, and asks forgiveness for the wrong ones. And when she wakes in the night and feels afraid, she says the prayer her mum taught her, because Allah is the One who protects us.

The book shows children that they can talk to Allah at any time, in their own words, about big things and small ones. It takes about three minutes and is music-free.
