30 Minutes for Deen
30 Minutes a Day. A Lifetime of Deen.
A little time each day. A lasting relationship with Deen. Children already learn at school, at home, through books and through the digital world. This initiative invites a family to keep a small part of that day for Qur'an, Islamic knowledge, duas, adab, seerah and conversation.
