Sammy loved hearing stories, especially ones about Allah and Islam. One day, after evening prayer, he asked his father for a story.
1
His father smiled and said, "Today, I will tell you about one of the most beautiful Surahs in the Quran, Surah Al-Ikhlas." Sammy sat eagerly, listening intently.

His father explained, "Surah Al-Ikhlas is short but powerful. It tells us that Allah is the One and Only, who created everything."

In the past, some people asked Prophet Muhammad, "What is Allah made of? Is He made of gold or silver?" Surah Al-Ikhlas was revealed to answer them.

His father explained, "As-Samad means Allah is the Eternal Refuge, whom we rely on for everything. He is the One who does not need anything."

Sammy understood, "Allah is the One who always helps us and deserves our worship." His father added, "Remember, Allah is always near, listening to you."

Sammy said, "I will read Surah Al-Ikhlas every night before bed. It makes me feel safe and happy." His father smiled, encouraged by his son's devotion.

And so, Sammy learned that Surah Al-Ikhlas speaks about Allah, who needs nothing and deserves all love and worship. He made a habit of reading it regularly.
