Make a bookmark to serve as a constant reminder about charity in our everyday lives

NOTE: Makes a good activity for Bibi Zainab (as) as well.

 

You Will Need:
  • Foam sheets (cut into bookmark size)
  • Wool String
  • Hole Punch
  • Stick-ons to decorate (can be anything, but ideal if something to do with charity, e.g. smiley faces, coins, etc)
  • Template of hadith (downloadable here)
  • Scissors and Glue

 

How To Make:
  1. Cut the hadith out and stick on one side of the bookmark.
  2. Decorate the other side with the Stick-ons.
  3. Punch a hole on the right hand top side of the bookmark.
  4. Wrap some wool string around the palm of your hand (not including your thumb) about 5 times round.
  5. Cut it at the same point as the beginning of the string, and then make a cut at both ends so that the pieces are loose at both ends.
  6. Taking a small piece of string, tie it around the middle with a secure knot.
  7. Thread this through the hole and then tie again from the outside, using another small piece of string.
