NORAK inspiring Islam for children

by Khanum

Life, is beautiful. What makes it even more pretty are the astounding unique ideas of brilliant people.

Meet Sara Hussein! Another brilliant girl. One of the many beautiful people on earth who came forward with a unique andΒ productiveΒ idea of her own. NORAK. “A product that brings the beauty of Islam and Technology together.”

I came across thisΒ product on Twitter, when I met Sara who was extremely busy running the fundraiser campaign. You all remember the Pop Quranic Book by Hajera Memon, right? A product that I got to know via twitter as well. The news update on that one is that it raised the required funding to go ahead with their project and now they are in the production phase.

As for NORAK , the journey has just started and am so glad that they have raised $2,526 already. With 13 days left to reach their target of $50,000 , Sara is hopeful that it would turn out well. See her websiteΒ http://bit.ly/1e48ekZ

Is it just about lights?

This is where you’ll be surprised my friend. NORAK is a WONDER. In the words of the creator of this product,

“I created this product to help enhance my children’s bedtime routine and give them something that holds true to our Islamic identity, as well as giving me the freedom to be in control my children’s bedtime routine. In a world filled with technology it can sometimes feel like everything around us is chosen for us before we even get given a choice.

When I was looking for night-lights for my son to help him get to sleep at night all I could find was the same generic moons and stars with pre-installed musical lullabies. I believe that the Quran is our light in this world and so it’s important to be able to share that with our children as soon as we can. With NORAK you can choose what you listen to, and if you take a look at our perks you can get one of the first ever NORAKs to be made with a micro-SD card pre-loaded with Quran for you to listen to.

Although NORAK was designed with children in mind, it’s also a beautifully timeless classic addition to the home. It’s a piece of art / technology that is interchangeable between generations. From babies to grandparents were confident this is a gift to give or keep.”Β 

I find her story very inspiring and her kids too adorable. NORAK is like a perfect gift you can gift to your kids and to your friends as well. If you haven’t checked out their site yet, Follow them and support their campaign by helping in raising the funds. Click here to run fast to their site.

  1. Happy 200th post. Yay!!! It’s a beautiful idea, and a great idea to share a bit of your culture. I think I just like pretty lights, I am a sucker for pretty things.

  2. This is a beautiful idea, masha’Allah. I like how the mothers could record their own voice and make that play though this night light. But I hope this doesn’t mean that mothers would take advantage of the recording and avoid reading ‘live’ to their children πŸ™‚

    Mabrook on the 200th post! Wow, TWO HUNDRED is a LOT of posts πŸ™‚

    • Thank you and yes, 200 is alot of posts and I’m amazed myself how far I have come with this blog with Allah’s help of course. Just feeling so blessed, Alhamdulillah.

      Sara’s idea is sure a delightful thing. The best part is that she invented it for her own kids first. That’s how it all started and now masha Allah, she’s spreading the light. May Allah reward all people for their efforts in the right way. Ameen

  3. Congrats on 200th post! NORAK sounds like a wonderful light for my 2 year old. Hopping over to check out more on Sara’s site.
