About This Story
Tonight's story is called Ibrahim and the Whispering Star. Ibrahim is a restless little boy who talks so much and moves so fast that he never quite hears the world around him — not his mother's soft words, not the wind, not even his own breathing. When a tiny star-shaped lantern begins whispering to him from the Starlight Plains, Ibrahim discovers that it only glows brighter when he stops to truly listen. By the end, Ibrahim learns that Allah اللّٰه placed quiet wonders all around him — and that peace was never far away, only waiting for him to be still enough to hear it.
