Lessons from Ahlul Bayt (A.S.): The Story of the Three Days of Fasting is a beautifully crafted Islamic children's book that introduces young readers to one of the most powerful lessons of generosity, sincerity, and faith from Islamic history. Inspired by the noble actions of Ahlul Bayt (A.S.), this book gently teaches children timeless values through a simple, engaging, and age-appropriate story.
This Islamic storybook for kids recounts the famous event in which Imam Hasan ibn Ali (A.S.) and Imam Hussain ibn Ali (A.S.) fell ill, and their parents made a vow to Allah to fast for three days if their children recovered. By the mercy of Allah, the children became well, and the family fulfilled their vow. Over three nights, despite having very little, the family gave all of their food to a poor person (miskīn), an orphan (yatīm), and a prisoner (asīr), breaking their fast with only water. Their selfless charity was so beloved to Allah that it was praised in the Qur'an in Surah al-Insān (Hal Atā), verses 8-9.
Written especially for Muslim children and families, this book helps parents teach core Islamic values such as:
Giving for the sake of Allah alone
