My name is Sharifah.
I am a Muslimah,
Alhamdulillah!
|
I wear a khimar,
|
and a hijab just like my Ummy.
|
One day,
I would like to
wear a veil like her too, Insha Allah!
|
When I go outside, I must lower my voice,
Shhhhhhhhh!
|
But Allah says it is better for me to stay inside.
|
but I don't mind because . . .
|
I can help wash baby brother
in the bathtub . . .
|
and play and splash when
I 'm finished while I'm cleaning the tub!
|
I can take my little brother
to the potty. . .
|
and then get a sticker for being a BIG helper!
|
I can help make cookies . . .
|
and then play with the bubbles
when I wash the dirty dishes.
|
I can play tea party with my Abi .
|
Sometimes my Abi takes
me places by myself
(--without the boys)
|
Or sometimes we all go to the park!
|
Sometimes I like to pray
with my family.
I make sure I have my khimar,
hijab, and socks.
|
I have a kunyah just like Umm Ibrahim, my Ummy.
My kunyah is Umm 'Arusa.
'Arusa is doll in Arabic so I am mother of my doll!
(by the way, 'Arusa wears a khimar and hijab like me sometimes)

My name is

|

Alhamdulillah!
