Allah and Me | Learning to Live Allah’s Way

Why this book matters today

Every parent wants their child to grow up knowing the difference between right and wrong — not just as a set of rules, but as something they genuinely feel and understand. Allah and Me offers exactly that: a gentle, faith-centred guide that helps young children understand what it means to live with Allah’s awareness in their hearts. Rather than moralising, it invites children into a way of seeing the world — one where their daily actions, big and small, are connected to something greater. For families looking to raise children with grounded, beautiful character, this Islamic book offers a warm and reliable place to begin.

What makes this book unique

What makes Allah and Me | Learning to Live Allah’s Way truly stand out is how effortlessly it weaves reflection into the reading experience. Each lesson introduces what Allah loves and what displeases Him — not through fear, but through understanding and care. Children are gently encouraged to think about their own choices and why they matter. It never overwhelms; it simply guides. As a character building book, it nurtures both knowledge and personal growth in a way that stays with a child long after the book is closed.

Qur’anic guidance on righteous living

Allah says in the Qur’an:

“This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allāh -“

It was narrated that Ali bin Abu Talib said:

“When I narrate a Hadith from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), to you, then think of him as being the best, the most rightly guided and the one with the utmost Taqwa (piety, righteousness)” (Sunan Ibn Majah 20)

It was narrated that ‘Uqbah bin Amir said:

“A silken Farruj was presented to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he put it on and offered the prayer in it, then when he had finished the prayer he tore it off as if he disliked it and said:’This is not befitting for those who have Taqwa.’” (Sunan an-Nasa’i 770)

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah was asked about that for which people are admitted into Paradise the most, so he said:

“Taqwa of Allah, and good character.” And he was asked about that for which people are admitted into the Fire the most, and he said: ” The mouth and the private parts.” (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2004)

Ibn ‘Abbas narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) recited this Ayah:

“Have the Taqwa of Allah as His due, and do not die except as Muslims. And the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: “If only a drop of Az-Zaqqum were to drip into the abode of the world, it would spoil the peoples’ livelihood, so how about the person for whom it is his food?”” (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2585)

‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud narrated from his father, that he heard the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said:

“Indeed you shall be aided, capturing, and victorious; so whoever among you sees that, then let him have Taqwa of Allah, and let him command the good and forbid the evil, and whoever lies about me on purpose, then let him take his seat in the Fire.” (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2257)

Taqwa — that beautiful, living consciousness of Allah — is exactly what this book hopes to plant in young hearts. And there is no better time to plant it than now.
