Hey, little Ramadan explorers! Did you know that Ramadan is divided into three special parts? Each part has a different meaning and teaches us something important. Right now, we are in the first 10 days—also known as the Days of Mercy! 💖

Let’s learn why these days are so special and how we can make the most of them!

What Are the Three Parts of Ramadan?

Ramadan is like a treasure chest with three golden keys:

🔑 First 10 Days – The Days of Mercy (Rahmah)
🔑 Middle 10 Days – The Days of Forgiveness (Maghfirah)
🔑 Last 10 Days – The Days of Protection from Hellfire

Right now, we are in the Days of Mercy—a time when Allah showers us with love and kindness! 🥰

What Is Mercy (Rahmah)?

Mercy means love, kindness, and care. Allah is the Most Merciful, which means He loves us so much and always wants the best for us.

🤲 Did you know?
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that Allah’s mercy is greater than a mother’s love for her child! Imagine how much your parents love you—Allah loves you even more! 🥰

How Can We Earn Allah’s Mercy?

Here are 5 simple things kids can do in the first 10 days of Ramadan to receive Allah’s mercy:

1️⃣ Say This Special Dua:
"رَبِّ اغْفِرْ وَارْحَمْ وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّاحِمِينَ"
"My Lord, forgive and have mercy, and You are the best of the merciful." (Quran 23:118)

Kids praying for the mercy of Allah

2️⃣ Be Kind to Everyone 🤗

  • Help your parents with iftar.
  • Share your toys with siblings.
  • Say nice words to your friends.

3️⃣ Pray on Time

  • Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha—try not to miss a single prayer!
  • If you’re too young to pray all 5, start with one or two!
Reading salah to achieve Allah's mercy

4️⃣ Give Charity (Sadaqah) 💰

  • Put some money in a charity box.
  • Give food to someone in need.
  • Smile! (Yes, even smiling is a charity in Islam!) 😊
Giving charity

5️⃣ Say "Alhamdulillah" Often 🙌

  • Thank Allah for food, family, and everything you have!

🌙 What Happens After the First 10 Days?

After the Days of Mercy, we enter the Days of Forgiveness—a time to ask Allah to forgive our mistakes. But before that, let’s make the most of these blessed first 10 days by being extra kind and earning lots of rewards! 🌟

What good deed will you do today? Let us know! 😊
