Inspire the Generation

I was once asked at a lecture, “How did your mother raise 5 scholars in America in the 21st century?” As I recounted my memories, I reflected on the nights in our home where my family gathered to recall and reflect on the stories of our Prophets, pious predecessors, and prominent figures of Islam.

It’s books like the My First Heroes series that help shape young minds into scholars and leaders. These stories of great Islamic figures will inspire them and resonate with them throughout their lives.

Invest a few minutes before bedtime into My First Heroes, and InshaAllah you will see your children grow into the future heroes of our ummah.

My First Heroes includes beloved messengers like Adam, Noah and Moses and the noteable ladies of the Qur’an such as Mariam and Ayesha, peace be with them all. The short and sweet books are written in rhyme and begin with a lovely dua. References are given to Qur’an verses and each book ends with a moral lesson. A catchy and wonderful phrase is repeated ending each story with Allah loves You too! The last two pages focus on the moral of the story with fun and thought provoking activities. The illustrations created by J. Torresvillas are bright and colorful. He uses computer graphic digital art. The books are durable are come in a cardboard gift box. This series provides a wonderful all-in-one for any parent, teacher or child! If you want your children to have heroes from Qur’an, this series is awesome, mashAllah! And all proceeds go to charity!
