Meesha's Journey: Discovering Meqha’s World

Meesha was excited to go to her friend Meqha’s house for the first time. Meqha was a Muslim, and she had told Meesha so many interesting things about her religion. Meesha was curious to learn more, and Meqha’s family had invited her over to experience some of their traditions.

When Meesha arrived at Meqha’s house, she was greeted warmly by her friend’s family. They took off their shoes before entering the house, and Meesha was amazed at how beautiful the prayer room was. Meqha’s mom explained to her that Muslims pray five times a day and that the prayer room was a place where they could connect with Allah.

Meesha was also curious about the Qur’an, the holy book of Islam. Meqha showed her the Qur’an and explained that it contains the teachings of Allah as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Meesha learned that Muslims believe in the importance of being kind, honest, and helping others.

During her visit, Meesha also got to witness Meqha’s family practicing some of the rituals of Islam. They fasted during Ramadan, and Meqha explained that it was a time of spiritual reflection, self-discipline, and devotion to Allah. Meesha also got to taste some delicious food during Eid al-Fitr, the festival that marks the end of Ramadan. She was amazed by the festive atmosphere and the sense of community.

Meesha also learned about the importance of modesty in Islam. Meqha and her mom wore hijab, and they explained to Meesha that it was a way of showing respect to Allah. Meesha admired how beautiful Meqha and her mom looked in their hijabs.

As the day came to an end, Meesha felt grateful for the opportunity to learn about Islam. She realized that despite their differences, Meqha’s family shared many of the same values as her own family. They both believed in being kind, honest, and helping others.

As Meesha left Meqha’s house, she felt a sense of respect and curiosity for the Islamic faith. She knew that she still had a lot to learn, but she was grateful for the chance to experience a different culture. Meesha left with a newfound appreciation for diversity and a desire to continue learning about the world around her.
