by J. Samia Mair
An excellent story book for mini Muslims to enjoy: encouraging good deeds and conveying the lesson that it is one's intention that matters most, even when there are unintended outcomes!
Siblings Zak and Hana decide to see how many good deeds they can try to do in one day. Unfortunately, everything is going wrong for Zak, and his plans only end in disappointment … and lots and lots of mess!
This really upsets him! Through his mother sharing a hadith, Zak soon realises that what happens is not as important as his intention, and it is his good intentions that matter the most.
"This is an articulate and well-written book that imparts a sound Islamic lesson in a way that appeals to children. It has all the elements of a good children’s book – great pace, slight misadventures, which keep children amused, a likeable main character and a happy ending. This is definitely a high quality Islamic book that I would recommend." - Review by Readlittlemuslims.com

This is such a wonderful story driving home such an important message. Rarely do we discuss the importance of INTENTION with our kids, and this book serves as an entertaining yet meaningful reminder

My 4 & 7 year old boys thoroughly enjoyed this story. Zak's mishaps kept them engrossed in the story which is fairly long and the lessons from the story make it really worth reading.
