Activity 3
Suhoor Suhoor is the name of the meal that is eaten before dawn. The Prophet salallahu alaihi wasallam said “Take suhoor as there is blessing in it.” Children do not have to fast until they are around 14 years old. But, whether you are fasting or not you can eat the suhoor meal and take the blessings! To let your parent/carer know that you want to eat suhoor you can make and hang this door hanger and leave it outside your bedroom door. When they see it, they will know they need to wake you up. Remember to say Bismillah before you enjoy your suhoor! Instructions to make your “Wake me up for Suhoor” door hanger: 1. Detach the page with the door hanger template. 2. Decorate it. 3. Stick it on some card (could be from an empty cereal box). 4. Cut out the door hanger. Ask an adult to help you cut out the circle. 5. If you have a door knob and not a handle, ask an adult to cut a horizontal strip from one of the sides of the circle. This way you can slide the hanger on to your doorknob. 6. Hang it on the outside of your bedroom door before you go to sleep! 11
