My Salah Mat

My Salah Mat is a prayer mat designed to educate children on how to perform the Muslim prayer in a fun and enjoyable way.

The interactive prayer mat is touch sensitive and has pre-recorded keys that can be touched to reveal the sound, such as the Adhan, prayer times, how to do wudu, recite surahs, say duas, and much more.

How to Educate Your Children to Perform Salah

Teaching our Children How to Perform Salah is not the easiest thing. While it may be easy for them to mimic us while we pray, there are so many elements to prayer and one of the biggest things is to not let it be a daunting task for kids!

The importance of the prayer in Islam cannot be understated. It is the first pillar of Islam that the Prophet (PBUH) mentioned after mentioning the testimony of faith, by which one becomes a Muslim.

I was reading a blog post about Islam & Kids on Haute Hijab recently and I loved how the author put this “Whether positive or negative, pay close attention to how you’re modeling your own observance of worship because that is the most significant teaching you’re doing for them!”

How to Teach Kids to Pray & Love Salah

We asked women in our FB group (Productive Muslimaat) – “WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST STRUGGLE IN SALAH (particularly praying on time)”? and most women said that it was their children because of whom they struggle to pray on time. And of course, as mothers of small kids ourselves, we understand that struggle.

The struggle of praying in peace while one kid is riding on your back during prostration and the other is lying in front of you.

The struggle of keeping your cool during salah while the kids fight with each other.

HOW TO GENTLY ENCOURAGE CHILDREN TO PRAY SALAH

I remember when I first became a mother, I couldn’t wait to introduce my child to Islam. Over the past 11 years, from praying with little babies on my lap to starting our eldest son on his prayer journey to watching my girls pray next to me, my husband and I have learnt so much about teaching children Salah.

MY SALAH MAT REVIEW: AN ENGAGING WAY TO TEACH CHILDREN HOW TO PRAY

My Salah Mat is an interactive educational prayer mat for Muslim children to teach them how to pray. I was taught how to pray by my grandmother since I was lucky to grow up living in the same house as her. Times have now changed and children learn through various interactive ways. The parents and family members still remain the principle teachers, but tools definitely help.
