What is The Little Girl Says Alhamdulillah about?
The Little Girl Says Alhamdulillah is an Islamic audiobook for children aged 4 to 9 about a little girl and her kitty, who find reasons all day long to say Alhamdulillah, all praise is for Allah.
The kitty follows the girl everywhere she goes, and she is thankful to have her. In the backyard, birds sing all day, and she is thankful for ears to hear them. There are vegetables and fruits in the garden (her favourite is watermelon), milk to drink, and sunshine that fills the world with light. When it rains, she sees birds drinking from a puddle and thinks how merciful Allah is. She notices how a small seed needs sunlight and water to grow into a big tree, how colourful the creatures under the sea are, and how busy ants carry food home for the winter. Flowers look beautiful and smell good, and at night the moon and stars bring light into the darkness.
Almost every line brings another Alhamdulillah, so even the youngest listeners can join in. The girl decides that she wants to be kind to every living creature, and she ends by saying that we have many reasons in our lives to say Alhamdulillah.
Written by Rabia Gelgi, the story is about 2 minutes long and music-free. It helps young children notice Allah's gifts in everyday things, from their eyes and ears to the rain, and thank Him for them.
