Tell us a little about yourself…
What inspired you to start this project with your children?




What book are you using to teach the 99 names of Allah?
And then one day I was scrolling through Facebook and came across a new book that had just been published by Chickpea Press, ‘The 99 Names Of God’ by Daniel Thomas Dyer.
Without having seen anything of the contents, I somehow knew that this

How do you structure the sessions?
How do you teach a typical session and follow up craft?
Each day we would discuss the name informally as we went about our business, read the information available in our 99 names book and then complete the activity. It was very informal, relaxed and I tried to make the whole experience as pleasurable as possible for him. I would say that most of the lessons I try to impart to my son take this form- there is rarely the sense that he is being taught in the formal sense- he gets enough of that at school in the classroom. The proof that this technique was having its desired effect came each day as he eagerly awaited the activity and repeatedly asked me about it after waking. For me this was excellent motivation to continue going too- as much as I enjoyed the project, there came days where I was overwhelmed with multiple other tasks and his excitement and enthusiasm gave me the energy I needed to follow through with that day’s name.




What questions did your children ask about Allah?
What advice would you give to someone who wants to start this project?
