When you hear, you’ll see. Mesmerising narrations of sacred stories that will leave you amazed and wanting more.
I have had the honour and pleasure of knowing and working with Maryam Sinclair for the last ten years. We have co-written and produced several children’s drama events and I have witnessed the painstaking work she puts in on her own audio book productions. Her motto is “When you hear, you will see,” and this is truly so!
We are living in a day and technological age when children are forgetting how to be still, how to tap into their inner creativity and imagination, and how to listen. This unfortunately directly impacts their ability to focus and internalize the spirit of our deen as they come of age.
Maryam Sinclair has travelled across the globe and has been able to evoke heartfelt responses from the youngest of tots to the most questioning teenagers. Even as parents and adults, when we listen to her stories, it captures our hearts. We often think we know the story of Musa alaihisalam for example, but when you hear her tell it, then you will understand what it is to experience it as if you were in the middle of its reality! This is truly a priceless blessing and opportunity for all of us. My hope is that children all over the world with have the pristine opportunity to hear and benefit from her pioneering work.

When you are stressed, overwhelmed and don’t have time for anything, let alone your wellness. Ouch! Sometimes that’s last on your list.
I have seen many families regretting not having taken their responsibility seriously enough to protect their children from straying away from the deen later. I have created various programs and audio books to capture their imaginations while they are young and establish in them a deep love for İslam and its traditions. Your family’s spiritual wellbeing is our priority.
Children of all ages have loved and benefitted from the audio books I have prepared to inspire their love of Allah and His Messenger and to develop their language abilities.
