The Story of Shaytan

Why do we sometimes feel angry or want to make bad choices? Join Hasan as he learns the true story of Shaytan and how to protect his heart! When a ruined block tower sparks a sudden feeling of anger, Hasan discovers the epic history of Shaytan (Iblis). Children and families will journey through his long years of worship, his tragic fall through arrogance, and his refusal to bow to Prophet Adam (a.s.). Hasan learns that Shaytan is not a powerful monster—he is only a weak creation who whispers. Most importantly, children will discover the beautiful "shields" Allah gave us to stay safe and keep our hearts full of light.
