Along time ago, South Africa was a jungle, and there were many animals walking arround everywhere. Then, people became scared of the animals, so they put them into zoos and parks. There are many parks in South Africa where you can go to see the wild animals.
Finally, after driving for many hours in the car, they arrived at the park. It was so huge, it looked like a big bush. Huzaifah wondered whether they would see any animals in the bush.
As they were driving through the tress and bushes, they saw a buck running across the road. Mummy told tem read SUBHANALLAH every time they saw an animal, because Allah created all the beautiful animals and we should praise Him whenever we see his beautiful creation.
After that, they saw many animals! They saw some very tall giraffes with long necks eating from the top of the long trees. Abba made the giraffe’s neck long so that it can reach the high leaves easily.
They saw many zebras with beautiful black and white stipes. The rhinos had huge horns and the hippos were playing in the muddy water.
Every time they saw an animals, they would say SUBHANALLAH! They were so amazed at how many beautiful animals Allah had created.
After driving around for a few hours, they saw some lions eating a dead zebra. Muhammad asked, “Why are the lions eating the zebra?” Abba told them that Allah has created different animals as food for the lions.
There is no one in the jungles and bushes to feed the wild animals, so Allah has taught them how to catch their own food. Some animals, whilst zebras, bucks and giraffes eat grass and leaves. Allah has taught every animal to eat what food is good for them.
Just then, Muhammad shouted, “There’s an elephant!” They all turned to look, and saw 3 massive elephants walking towards them. As the elephants came closer to them, Huzaifah and Muhammad started crying. Muhammad shouted for their father to driave away quickly. Huzaifah screamed, “The elephant is going to attack us!”
Mummy and Abba were not even remember it. So Abba started reading it alound and they all read Aayatul Kursi. Just then, the elephants turned around and ran into the bush.
That night, before they went to sleep, Huzaifah asked his father, “Why did the elephant run away when we read Aayatul Kursi?” Abba explained, Aayatul kursi is the chief ayat of the entire Quran. Whoever recites Aayatul kursi, Allah will protect them from evil things and whatever they are sared of.”
Dear Little Muslims! Do you know Aayatul Kursi? Nabi (sallallahu alaihis wa sallam) has taught us to read it every night before we sleep and after evry salah. We should also read it when we leave our home, so Allah will protect it.
Whenever we are scared we should also read it. Allah is always there to look after us. If you are alone, or you are frightened of the dark, remember to take His name.
He will protect you always. If you have not learned Aayatul Kursi yet, ask your parents or your Muallimah to teach it to you.
