The First 10 Days of Ramadan: Let's Collect Mercy Points!

Hey, little Ramadan explorers! Did you know that Ramadan is divided into three special parts? Each part has a different meaning and teaches us something important. Right now, we are in the first 10 days-also known as the Days of Mercy! 💖

Let's learn why these days are so special and how we can make the most of them!

What Are the Three Parts of Ramadan?

Ramadan is like a treasure chest with three golden keys:

🔑 First 10 Days - The Days of Mercy (Rahmah)
🔑 Middle 10 Days - The Days of Forgiveness (Maghfirah)
🔑 Last 10 Days - The Days of Protection from Hellfire

Right now, we are in the Days of Mercy-a time when Allah showers us with love and kindness! 🥰

What Is Mercy (Rahmah)?

Mercy means love, kindness, and care. Allah is the Most Merciful, which means He loves us so much and always wants the best for us.

🤲 Did you know?
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that Allah's mercy is greater than a mother's love for her child! Imagine how much your parents love you-Allah loves you even more! 🥰

How Can We Earn Allah's Mercy?

Here are 5 simple things kids can do in the first 10 days of Ramadan to receive Allah's mercy:

1️⃣ Say This Special Dua:
"رَبِّ اغْفِرْ وَارْحَمْ وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّاحِمِينَ"
"My Lord, forgive and have mercy, and You are the best of the merciful." (Quran 23:118)

2️⃣ Be Kind to Everyone 🤗

• Help your parents with iftar.
• Share your toys with siblings.
• Say nice words to your friends.

3️⃣ Pray on Time ⏰

• Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha-try not to miss a single prayer!
• If you're too young to pray all 5, start with one or two!

4️⃣ Give Charity (Sadaqah) 💰

• Put some money in a charity box.
• Give food to someone in need.
• Smile! (Yes, even smiling is a charity in Islam!) 😊

5️⃣ Say "Alhamdulillah" Often 🙌

• Thank Allah for food, family, and everything you have!

🌙 What Happens After the First 10 Days?

After the Days of Mercy, we enter the Days of Forgiveness-a time to ask Allah to forgive our mistakes. But before that, let's make the most of these blessed first 10 days by being extra kind and earning lots of rewards! 🌟
