A reflective Islamic story with comprehension questions for Muslim children and teens
 
 
 For the child who says, 
“I know I should pray… but I struggle.”
 
 
As Muslim mothers, one of our deepest worries is when our child begins to struggle with salah.
They still believe. They still love Islam.
But their heart feels heavy. Their motivation feels weak.
And we don’t always know how to help them without pushing them away.
 
This resource was created for that exact child.
 
What is this resource?
 
The Story of Suhailah & Her Struggle With Salah is a deeply relatable, Islamic story based on real struggles Muslim children and teens face today — laziness in prayer, distractions, sins, peer pressure, social media, weak companionship, and a feeling of disconnection from Allah.
 
Through Suhailah’s journey, children learn that:
 
Struggling with salah does not mean they are a bad Muslim
Hardships and  heaviness are tests from Allah, not abandonment
Sins and distractions affect the heart
Repentance, effort, and good deeds bring light back into the heart
Allah helps those who take steps towards Him
 
The story gently guides the child to reflect on their own actions and choices — without shaming, without harshness — and shows them how to return to Allah properly.
 
What’s included?
 
✔️ A fully written Islamic story grounded in Qur’an and authentic understanding
✔️ Clear Qur’anic āyāt explaining trials and consequences of actions
✔️ Comprehension questions to check understanding and encourage reflection
✔️ Separate answer sheet for parents, teachers, or homeschool use
✔️ Content suitable for upper primary to teenage children
✔️ Designed for home learning, Islamic classes, homeschooling, or youth groups
 
Authentic guidance — not internet confusion
 
One of the most important strengths of this resource is that it directs children away from random online advice and clearly links them back to trusted Salafi-based Islamic websites, such as:
 
Abukhadeejah.com
Troid.org
Islamtees.uk
AbuIyaad.com
 
Children learn where to seek correct Islamic guidance and why that matters — a vital skill in today’s world of misinformation.
