AN EASY TO READ AND UNDERSTAND PICTURE BOOK ABOUT HAJJ RITES

DALLAS, TX — March 6th, 2021. DJARABI KITABS PUBLISHING has officially released The Blessed Hajj by Montessori Teacher Anastasia Aisha Izgagina.

About the book: "The Blessed Hajj” is a book that enables Muslim children to gain, love and have knowledge about one of the beautiful pillars of Islam; Hajj. It is written in a poetic form which is easy to read and understand for children. Finally, "The Blessed Hajj" brings the pilgrimage journey to Muslim children's homes. The Blessed Hajj is geared at children between 3 and 7 of age.

The author shared her reasons for authoring The Blessed Hajj.

1. Why did you decide to author The Blessed Hajj ?

I felt the need of creating a simple and beautiful book about hajj for kids. I felt like most of the books that are out there target older kids and are very difficult to understand.

I wanted something catchy and easy for kids to remember things about hajj. So, I wrote the book in a rhyming form. When I read it to my five-year-old, he was super excited and even memorized some sentences from the book very quickly.

2. What do you want to achieve with this children's book?

I want to contribute to the ummah. I want to contribute to Islam and little children to learn about hajj in a fun way.

3. Please tell us about yourself.

I'm a stay at home Mom, homeschooler, graphic designer and artist. I love teaching and creating educational materials for children. I want to contribute to my beautiful deen in whatever way I can bithnillahi.

I'm a convert to Islam for many years now alhamdulillah. I speak Russian and English. I am also working on creating Russian Islamic books for children, too.
