One of the most practical ways to bring Islamic learning into everyday family life is through printables — simple, beautiful resources your children can hold, use, and refer back to.
The best Islamic printables for kids are those that are visually appealing, age-appropriate, and actually useful — not just decoration. Here are 10 of the best types of free Islamic printables for children, plus where to find or create them.
1. Dua Cards for Kids
Simple cards with one dua each — Arabic text, transliteration, and English meaning. The best format is small enough to fit on a bedside table or be tucked into a school bag. Children who have dua cards to refer to say duas more consistently than those relying on memory alone. Great duas to start with: waking up, eating, leaving the house, entering the masjid.
2. Five Pillars of Islam Poster
A colourful visual displaying the five pillars — Shahada, Salah, Zakah, Sawm, and Hajj — with simple icons and child-friendly explanations. Display it in your child’s room or homeschool space. When it becomes part of the visual environment, it becomes part of their mental furniture.
3. Daily Prayer Chart
A weekly grid with the five daily prayers listed, designed for children to tick or sticker each prayer as they complete it. The most effective prayer charts are simple and positive — celebrating what was done rather than shaming what was missed. Best for children aged 6–10.
4. Arabic Alphabet Colouring Pages
Each page features one Arabic letter in large format for colouring, with the letter name and a word that begins with it. Colouring reinforces letter recognition in a hands-on way that worksheets don’t. Ideal for ages 3–6. Print one letter per week and create an Arabic alphabet display on the wall.
5. 99 Names of Allah Activity Sheet
A beautifully laid out sheet with all 99 names, their transliterations, and English meanings. Older children (8+) can use it as a reference while younger ones enjoy simply looking at the Arabic script. A simple activity: choose one name per day and discuss what it means over breakfast.
6. Surah Colouring and Tracing Sheets
Short surahs printed in large, clear Arabic script for children to trace, followed by the English meaning. Surah Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq, An-Nas, and Al-Fatiha work perfectly in this format. Tracing Arabic builds familiarity with the script long before formal reading begins.
7. Prophets of Islam Flashcards
Cards featuring each prophet’s name, a key fact, and an illustration. Use them for memory games, quizzes, or storytelling prompts. Children who know the names of the prophets early have a stronger sense of Islamic history and lineage. There are 25 prophets mentioned in the Quran — a card set for each is a wonderful learning tool.
8. Ramadan Activity Calendar
A 30-day calendar with one small Islamic activity or act of worship per day — making dua for a friend, giving sadaqah, reading a story about the Prophet ﷺ, making iftar with the family. Print at the start of Ramadan and work through it together. This is the most downloaded type of Islamic printable during Ramadan season.
9. Islamic Gratitude Journal Pages
Simple journal pages with prompts like “Today I am grateful to Allah for…” and “One thing I learned about Islam today…” Journalling builds reflection and emotional connection to faith. Best for children aged 7 and up. A single completed journal page from your child’s childhood becomes a treasure.
10. Islamic Homeschool Weekly Planner
A weekly planning template built around salah times, with dedicated slots for Quran, Islamic studies, and academic subjects. Designed for Muslim homeschool families who want a planner that honours the Islamic day rather than a generic secular timetable.
Where to Get Free Islamic Printables
Many of the printables described above are available free from our own Muslim Kids Lab resources page. You’ll also find excellent free Islamic printables on platforms like Teachers Pay Teachers (search “Islamic” for free resources), Etsy (many sellers offer free samples), and dedicated Muslim homeschool blogs.
When evaluating any Islamic printable, look for: accurate Islamic content, clean and appealing design, and age-appropriateness. The best printable is the one that actually gets used.
May Allah make every resource in your home a means of drawing your children closer to Him. Ameen. 🌟
