السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ
Simple lessons, short stories and a weekly star chart to help you teach your children good manners (adab) the way the Prophet ﷺ taught them, with gentleness.
Each value comes with a verse or hadith you can read together and one small thing to try at home today.
رِفْق
Allah is Kind and He loves kindness in every matter.Hadith · Sahih al-Bukhari 6927
Try today: Ask your child to give one smile and one kind word to someone at home. Remind them the Prophet ﷺ said a smile for your brother is a charity (Tirmidhi 1956).
عَفْو
Let them pardon and overlook. Would you not love for Allah to forgive you?Qur'an · Surah An-Nur 24:22
Try today: Practise the "sorry and forgive" swap. One child says "I'm sorry", the other answers "I forgive you, may Allah forgive us both", then they shake hands.
إِيثَار
None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.Hadith · Sahih al-Bukhari 13, Sahih Muslim 45
Try today: Split a snack in half and let your child choose who gets the bigger piece. Talk about how giving the better half is what the Companions did.
Tap a card to see when to say it. Pick one word a week and use it together until it becomes a habit.
Tap a circle each time your child does the good deed. Stars are saved on this device, so you can come back each evening and add today's.

Every star is a small sadaqah. Let's begin!
Children copy what they see far more than what they hear. These habits come straight from the Prophetic way of raising children.
Say "please", "JazakAllahu khayran" and "I'm sorry" to your children. They learn the words by hearing them aimed at themselves.
"You shared your crayons with Ali, that was generous" teaches more than "good boy". Specific praise tells them exactly what to repeat.
The Prophet ﷺ taught the young Umar ibn Abi Salamah table manners kindly: "Say Bismillah, eat with your right hand, and eat from what is near you" (Bukhari 5376).
Explain why: "Allah loves people who are kind." Children who understand the reason keep the habit when no one is watching.
