Born from a Parent’s Love, Crafted by Experts

Like many Muslim parents, we started with a simple question: How can we make our faith as exciting for our children as the shows and stories they see every day in the mainstream media?

Our founders, Adiba Ataeva and Matthew AbdulMateen Sansom, started Miraj Stories in 2013 because they wanted high-quality content for their son that showed Islamic values like kindness, compassion and honesty, without compromising on production quality.

"Whatever we created shouldn’t put our child off Islam but present the religion as something that is easy, enjoyable and ultimately full of meaning."

- Adiba Ataeva, Founder and CEO of Sidra Media, former BBC Producer and Broadcast Journalist

Why choose Miraj?

Most digital media are designed for passive use, where children just sit and watch videos in a loop. At Miraj, we do things differently. We believe that halal screen time should be a bridge to learning, not a distraction.

The Child at the Centre

Our app follows a “Learning through Doing” philosophy. We put your child at the heart of the experience:

  • Interactive Engagement: With touchbooks, games and puzzles, your child does more than just watch a story. They take part in it, making choices that build Islamic manners (Adab) and good character (Akhlaq)
  • Active Discovery: Our games challenge your child’s mind and encourage logical thinking and critical thinking, all inspired by Islamic values and beliefs

Encouraging Screen-Free Time

We are one of the few apps that actually encourage you to turn off the screen. Our large collection of professionally narrated Islamic audiobooks lets your child:

  • Build strong listening skills
  • Use their imagination without the blue-light stimulation of a screen
  • Relax before bed or enjoy car rides while listening to stories of the Prophets and the Sahaba

The Highest Quality, No Compromise

We believe Muslim children should enjoy the same high-quality production as any Disney or Netflix show. Our world-class animation is paired with authentic content, reviewed by respected religious consultants like Sheikh Abu Sayeed, former Chairman of the Islamic Shari’a Council (East London, UK), and Imam Ajmal Masroor (London, UK). This way, your child can be inspired by the beauty and virtue (Ihsan) of their faith.

Our Guiding Principles

We believe learning about Islam should be joyful and enriching. Everything we create, from Islamic audiobooks to interactive games, nurtures your child’s potential with content that is:

Authentic

Rooted in Islamic teachings, verified by qualified scholars and true to our Muslim faith, values and culture

Creative

Innovative storytelling that competes with modern mainstream media

High-Quality

We aim for excellence (Ihsan) in everything we produce

Inclusive

We celebrate the rich diversity of the Muslim communities around the world

Inspiring

We hope to nurture a lasting love for Allah and His Messenger, Muhammad (pbuh)
