Illuminating books to nourish the hearts and minds of our beautiful children.


Help Us Create and Publish Illuminating and Entertaining Books for a New Generation of Happy and Devout Muslim Kids

Our aim is to produce rich and captivating children's books that help parents convey to their children the illuminating and uplifting teachings and values of Islam. We see it as our mandate to equip the faithful with a wide-ranging and comprehensive variety of books and multimedia products that would enable them to better educate their children. This is especially important since parents are in a constant state of competition with mainstream children's entertainment outlets, which are scarcely concerned with the psychological and spiritual wellbeing of our children.


Heavenlywise Books

Heavenlywise is a small and young yet highly motivated publishing and media company with no corporate or government backing of any kind. We have great plans and wonderful projects under way but are constrained by a very limited budget. By making a donation to Heavenlywise, you help us create the high quality and successful books and multimedia products we are aiming for. Your donation benefits your children, and the spiritual reward will--God willing--come to your assistance on that Day when all worldly acquaintances, positions, and belongings abandon us.



Small and Young Yet Highly Motivated

Heavenlywise marked its launch with the debut of its first two published books: The Greatest Gift and Wings to Fly With. We are now preparing to roll out over 40 more volumes of wonderful kids books. They will be dealing with the lives of God's prophets, based on their stories as told by the Qur'an and the corpus of tradition, and the teachings and values that define Islam, all using the appealing language and medium of storytelling. With the necessary funds available, we will--God willing--be able to gradually release the 40+ books over the course of the next 2-4 months.



Help the Cause

By making a contribution to our fundraising campaign powered by LaunchGood, you enable us to take the next step to offer dozens of new titles that teach children the spirit and essence of Islam in a way that they can enjoy and relate to.

Titles We Will Publish with Your Help

The following is a short list of the titles that Heavenlywise will publish in the next 2-4 months with the help of your donations:
