Wake up! It’s the Ramadan Drummer
“Take Suhoor for there is blessing in it” Bukhari
It’s Ramadan and Adam loves this special time of year, but there’s a growing problem; people in Adam’s neighbourhood are not waking up for the pre-fast meal (Suhoor) or the dawn prayer.
Sadly they are forgetting these important early morning activities for Ramadan, which have now become a distant memory.
Can Adam’s father help to wake the people up in time by rising to the challenge of becoming the Ramadan Drummer - the neighbourhood waker-upper?
Can he find the courage to continue an ancient legacy in a modern city?
A humorous, feel-good story with a heart-warming message that celebrates cultural heritage, service to the local community and bravery during hard times.
Through lively rhymes and vibrant illustrations children will learn about the importance of the
Ramadan Drummer tradition, which was once the heartbeat of many Muslim
communities during the Holy Month of Ramadan.
Ramadan is here!
"Ramadan drummer, is a modern classic and should be in every child's bookshelf!"

"Wake up! It's the Ramadan drummer, is one of if not the best Muslim children's book available!"
