A Family Forgiveness Jar is a simple Ramadan activity for kids during the 2nd Ashrah. Each family member writes a note about someone they forgive, a mistake they want to fix, or a kind deed they did, then places it in a jar. It helps children learn tawbah, Allah’s mercy, and making amends.<\/p>

    The 2nd Ashrah: Ramadan’s Forgiveness Days<\/h2>

    Ramadan comes in three parts of ten days each. We call each part an Ashrah.<\/p>

    The Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa said:<\/p>

    “Whoever fasts Ramadan out of sincere faith and hoping for reward from Allah, his previous sins will be forgiven.”
    (Sahih al-Bukhari 38)<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>

    So the second Ashrah \u2014 days eleven to twenty \u2014 is the season of forgiveness. Maghfirah.<\/p>

    This is when the heart slows down and asks a quiet question.<\/p>

    Who do I need to forgive? And who do I need to ask?<\/p>

    Children feel that question too. They just don’t have the words yet.<\/p>

    The 2nd Ashrah is your chance to give them the words \u2014 and a jar to hold them.<\/p>

    A simple forgiveness dua is short enough for a young child to learn:<\/p>

    <\/p>

    \u0627\u064e\u0633\u0652\u062a\u064e\u063a\u0652\u0641\u0650\u0631\u064f \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647\u064e \u0631\u064e\u0628\u0650\u0651\u064a \u0645\u0650\u0646\u0652 \u0643\u064f\u0644\u0650\u0651 \u0630\u064e\u0646\u0652\u0628\u064d \u0648\u064e\u0623\u064e\u062a\u064f\u0648\u0628\u064f \u0625\u0650\u0644\u064e\u064a\u0652\u0647\u0650<\/p>

    “I seek forgiveness from Allah, my Lord, for every sin, and I turn to Him in repentance.”<\/p><\/div>

    Many families teach this as a simple 2nd Ashrah dua because it helps children remember the meaning of maghfirah \u2014 asking Allah for forgiveness and turning back to Him.<\/p>

    Want a gentle way of incorporating the Ashrah dua<\/a> into your evenings? The jar below gives your family a simple place to begin.<\/p>
