Little Abdullah's dreams are filled with frightening things, including tigers and enormous waves. In A Prayer at Bedtime, his family helps him face those fears through reassurance and prayer.
Zaynab Dawood's imaginative story gives parents a gentle starting point for talking with children about worries, asking for help and turning to Allah. It connects a familiar childhood experience with the comfort of family and faith.
Who is it for? Children aged 5 and above, especially for shared reading with a parent or caregiver. It can open a conversation about what makes bedtime feel safe and how children can tell a trusted adult when something frightens them.
