About this page

Printed on the sheet: Al-Amin means “the trustworthy”. How can you be honest today?

Long before revelation, the people of Mecca gave the young Muhammad ﷺ a nickname: Al-Amin, the trustworthy. They left their valuables with him because they knew he would keep them safe and give them back. In our picture book a proud little fox guards a locked treasure chest to stand for that trust. The sheet has two writing lines at the bottom, so an older child can answer the question on the page, or tell you their answer while you write it down.

Talk about it

  • What does it mean when someone trusts you? Who do you trust?
  • Can you think of one honest thing you could do today?

Color tips

A red-orange fox with a white-tipped tail, a brown wooden chest and gold corners. The bluebird is a nice spot for a bright blue.
