Hashim and Ayesha explore the garden with their family. They spot a rainbow, a butterfly, a golden sunset and a bright star at night, and each time they say “Subhan Allah”. Their parents and grandparents join in, so little ones can sing along with the whole family.
The words in this song
Watch together Try together Remember together
1. Watch together
Sit side by side and sing “Subhan Allah” with your child.
2. Try together
Play “Subhan Allah Spotting!” for about two minutes.
3. Remember together
Next time you are outside, say “Subhan Allah” together when you see something beautiful.
Try it together: Subhan Allah Spotting!
- Stand at a window or step outside together, keeping your child close.
- Take turns to spot one thing Allah made: a cloud, a tree, a bird, a flower or the moon.
- Point to it and say “Subhan Allah!” together.
- Ask, “Who made the sky? Who made the flowers?” and answer together: “Allah made it all!”
- At bedtime, look for the moon or a star and say it one more time.
Parent tip
Children learn the words best when they are linked to a real moment of wonder. Say “Subhan Allah” softly when you see a rainbow, a full moon or a tiny ladybird, and let your child hear you. Keep it warm and playful, without testing or pressure.
For parents: “Subhan Allah” (سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ) means “Glory be to Allah”: it declares that Allah is perfect and free of any fault. The Qur’an describes all of creation glorifying Allah: “The seven heavens, the earth, and all those in them glorify Him” (Surah Al-Isra 17:44, translation: The Clear Quran). The song links the words to the beauty children can see around them.
Using the Subhan Allah song every day
The Subhan Allah song turns a walk, a window or a bedtime sky into a small moment of remembrance. Play it once, then look for real things to notice together: the colours of a flower, a bird on a fence, the shape of the moon.
Young children are naturally full of wonder, so you do not need to explain much. When your child points at something and smiles, say “Subhan Allah” with them and add a few simple words: “Allah made the clouds.”
Keep it short and cheerful. Some days your child will say it to every leaf in the park, and some days they will forget; both are normal. Gentle repetition, and hearing it from the people they love, is what helps the words become their own.
