Muharram: A New Islamic Year Begins for Kids

A Sacred Start for Young Hearts

New Islamic Year for Kids begins not with fireworks, but with faith — and it all starts in Muharram, the first month of the Hijri calendar.

At MeeM, we believe that every new year is a doorway. A time for children to step gently into the world of dheen, with curiosity, wonder, and love.

Why Muharram Matters So Much – Even for Kids

As adults reflect on the past year and plan anew, kids too deserve a moment to restart — in their own magical way.

Muharram is one of the four sacred months in Islam, where good deeds shine brighter and intentions feel fresher.

🌊 Ashura – A Story of Courage for Little Listeners

In the middle of Muharram lies the day of Ashura — when Prophet Musa (AS) was saved from Pharaoh by Allah splitting the sea.

For kids, it’s a superhero-level story of bravery, dua, and trust.

🎓 Tell them: “Even the ocean obeyed Allah that day!”

Fasting on Ashura (10th Muharram) is also a practice we can inspire them to try — even if they can’t fast, they can join by:

Making a special dua
Giving secret charity
Learning the story of Musa (AS)

📘 New Islamic Year, New Faith Habits for Kids

This is the perfect time to plant little seeds of faith in your child:

✅ Daily Bismillah before food, school, and sleep
✅ Short du’as like: “Ya Allah, make my heart clean and my smile kind.”
✅ Arabic letter play – turn Alif, Baa, Taa into glowing story characters
✅ Nasheeds – sing along to “Alif is for Asad…” and create joyful routines
