Understanding My Ramadan Duas – Journal and Videos

For many many years, I have felt that we do such a disservice to the beautiful duas that we recite in Ramadan because we focus so much on the rote recitation as opposed to looking at and learning from the gems that our Imam has given us within. Last year a close friend and I started working on this journal, first and foremost to work through with our own children and then hopefully with the aim of using it in classes during Ramadan. As it turns out, mosques still aren’t reopening so we have produced short YouTube clips for children to listen to and help them work through the books, Inshallah.

The journal covers the 7 duas we recite daily in Ramadan. Each dua will follow a similar format – Dua Iftitah is broken down into smaller chunks – and there are questions, activities and games to get your child thinking and learning about what we are actually praying for through the beautiful words in the dua.

And here are the videos that accompany the journal!

  • For the younger crowd (suggested 5-10), Memoji Masi does a brilliant job of bringing the duas to life!: http://bit.ly/ctc-memoji-masi – for all of the videos

  • For the older crowd (suggested 11 plus), here is the link to the 12 videos:

Here are some lovely pics people sent in:

Baligha Series – Idea 11: Gather messages from loved ones

he next batch of Buloogh Ideas is all about acknowledging that your daughter is now entering a new phase of life…

One mum had a lovely idea of collecting messages for her daughter from all the people who knew her – family, friends – school and otherwise, teachers, etc.

The result was one lovely journal full of memories and advice for the years ahead, which I’m sure she will cherish forever!

As well as reading books, journals can allow the girls to learn by writing and thinking about this time in their life.

  • This awesome journal allows girls to document this special new journey in their life!

Using the word ‘Baligha’ as an acrostic poem, the following topics are covered in a clear and beautiful manner:

B: Beautiful (cleanliness and inner beauty)
A: Awareness (of fiqh, salaat, physical changes)
L: Little Lady Quiz
I: Intention (wajib)
G: Genes (relationships and geneology)
H: Hijab (declaration of identity)
A: Aspiration (Micro and macro goals)

Each section has a place for your child’s own notes and thoughts, as well as quizzes, personal information, and even a space to design their own hijabs!

There is a PDF available but I would highly recommend ordering a physical copy – nothing beats that!

So in the Iraq series, we talk about encouraging our children to keep a journal to write their thoughts/duas in, make a scrapbook with all their mementos in, and we also mentioned the importance of having child-friendly information about the trip.

Alhamdulillah, all these three concepts have been incorporated into our latest product – the Umrah Journal!

It is with the printers and will be with us early next week so please do get in touch if you would like us to send out a copy straight away to Inshallah get to you in time. Alternatively, we can arrange a mutually convenient time to pass them on!
