THE JOY OF RAIN (فرحة مطر)

Yasmeenah invites her friends over for a party but her plans are derailed when it begins to rain and thunder. Instead of hosting what she initially planned outside, Yasmeenah tells her friend to bring extra clothes and come ready to have fun! A simple story reminds readers about how to turn an unexpected challenge into an opportunity. As the girls go outside to play in the rain, they remind each other of simple Islamic prayers for this occasion, and what the Prophet Muhammad would do when he witnessed rain, lightning and thunder.    Details Author: Mariam Alkhatib Illustrator: Sara bin Saif Publisher: The Reader Child  Specifications Soft cover -- 20 pages  7.5 x 7.5 inches
