Why didn't the rain come? Why did my toy go missing? Why couldn't I have that treat?
Sometimes, children face small disappointments with big feelings.
This gentle, faith-filled book helps them understand why.

Allah Al-Qābid – The Withholder is a heartwarming Islamic children's book that lovingly explores one of Allah's 99 Names: Al-Qābid — the One who holds back with wisdom and care.

Through four beautifully told stories, young readers will discover that:

  • When Allah holds something back, it's always for a good reason
  • Patience and trust can grow during life's small "no" moments
  • Being withheld from something can lead to something better
  • From a garden that won't grow, to a missed football match, to a ripped toy and a visit to the dentist—each story offers a relatable moment, rooted in faith, for children aged 6 to 12.

    Perfect for:

  • Islamic homeschooling and storytime
  • Teaching emotional resilience through faith
  • Ramadan and Eid gifts for Muslim children
  • Families exploring Allah's Names together
  • ⭐ Written as part of the best-selling series, Exploring Allah's Names: A Journey for Kids, this book helps children connect with their Creator in moments of sadness, patience, and quiet hope.

    Because when Allah withholds... He's still loving you.
