A heart warming tale of self acceptance

“Allah Made You Beautiful” is a heartwarming tale of self-discovery and acceptance, centered around two sisters, Sara and Zoya, during the joyous celebration of Eid. As they try on their beautiful dresses, Sara feels a pang of sadness, grappling with the stark difference between her complexion and her sister’s.

Hurtful comments from relatives and family friends weigh heavily on Sara’s heart, leading her to question her worth and wonder if she’ll ever look different. In a moment of vulnerability, she turns to her mother with a heartfelt question: “Will I turn fair as I grow older?”

With love and wisdom, her mother guides Sara on a beautiful journey to understand Allah’s purpose in creating everyone uniquely. Through tender moments and meaningful lessons, Sara learns that true beauty lies not in the color of her skin but in the kindness of her heart and the strength of her soul.

This inspiring story is a celebration of diversity, self-love, and the beauty of embracing who we are.
