As Salam alaikum wa Rahmat-Allahe wa barakatuhu everyone.
I’m a mother of two daughters. They are 11 and 13 now. Reading short prophet stories at bedtime is what I had practiced with both of them when they were growing up.
It has helped them not to be obsessed and over-fascinated by the superheroes the world introduced them to. For them, the benchmark to be a role model is too high.
Also, it has ingrained the faith in Allah’s mercy in their hearts. There is a lot to learn from these stories like taqwa and sabr. So instead of reading fictional fairy tales ( that give them a false picture of living happily ever after in life) we rather introduce them to true prophet stories (that teach them the real struggles of a believer and how to manage the tests and trials of life)
May Allah guide and help us all in raising a generation In Shaa Allah our Prophet will be proud of!! Ameen.

Prophet Saleh AS lived with them throughout his life of 100+ years but the people made excuses, upon their demand the prophet prayed for the miracle of the she-camel, which ALLAH gave them too, but they chose to be not thankful even then. Their behavior with the prophet had become worse and they killed the she-camel by clear wrongdoing, which led to ALLAH’s anger, striking them as the worst earthquake ruined everything except the prophet AS and followers.
