About This Story
Tonight's story is called The Secret Caravan of Good Deeds. When six-year-old Sumayyah begins to feel that her small acts of kindness don't matter — not next to grown-up good deeds — she discovers a secret caravan that only appears on the Golden Caravan Trail for those whose hearts are trying. Guided by a gentle old traveller and a little brass bell that rings whenever a good deed is done, Sumayyah learns that Allah اللّٰه never overlooks even the tiniest kindness. By the end, she understands that goodness done quietly, without waiting to be seen, is the goodness that shines the brightest of all.
