How The Right Prayer Mat Can Impact A Child’s Inclination Towards Islam?
When a child turns seven, some of us parents begin to feel anxious thinking about how we can teach our kids Salah with love and patience. Moreover, we wonder how to instruct our children to pray so that they remain consistent as they grow.
Every generation has lived in a totally different world, a different environment. They had their favourite games, T.V shows, and so much more. As parents, we tend to remain stuck in our timelines. Hence often we may fail to understand that times have changed and what worked with children back then, may not work for them now. So, let’s replace those old prayer mats you have and get something much more appealing for the current generation.
Even though the obligation for Salah for children is after the age of seven, to raise a family strong in Islamic tenets, children must be taught and exposed to the elements of what a prayer is and how it is offered. Read more about how you can do so, here.
With all that said, let’s jump onto the list of some of Kutuby Learning’s recommended Salah mats for kids.
