Your child can name every superhero. Not one prophet.
Cartoon heroes are invented to sell toys, and gone by next season. Sukun gives your child heroes who truly lived, chosen and honoured by Allah: courage in the fire, patience in the well, mercy at the moment of victory.
Which world will they step into first?
They lit a great fire to destroy him. Allah told the flames: be cool, and safe.
A baby set adrift on the Nile, raised inside the palace of the tyrant hunting him.
A king who understood the speech of the birds, and heard an ant warn its colony.
He set out to silence the Prophet ﷺ. He walked away in tears, a believer.
His own brothers left him at the bottom of a well. Allah had already planned his rise.
The very first human, and the first to turn back to Allah after a mistake.
A girl whose questions and memory would teach the ummah for centuries.
A handful of young believers hid in a cave, and Allah kept them asleep for three hundred years.
Made for any calm moment of the day: the drive to school, quiet time in the afternoon, the last light before sleep.

Every story is drawn from the Qur'an and classical tafsir: Ibn Kathīr's Stories of the Prophets and Maʿāriful Qur'an, with the ayah cited on each story.
Reviewed with reverence
Scripts are checked against their sources, with care for the names and lives of the prophets, and the precision of belief.
No faces, no ads
No faces of the prophets are ever depicted, in keeping with tradition. No ads or third-party tracking, ever.
“And We relate to you the most beautiful of stories…”
Questions, gently answered.
What is Sukun Kids?+
Sukun Kids is a storytelling app for Muslim children. It tells the stories of the prophets, the companions, and the women of Islam as immersive, beautifully narrated adventures. Heroes your child can look up to, for any calm moment of the day (bedtime included).
Is it really free to start?+
Yes. The complete story of Prophet Yusuf, along with all of his short tales, is free forever. No trial period, no credit card required. A subscription unlocks the rest of the library.
What ages is it for?+
Sukun Kids is made for children ages 3 and up. Younger children listen along to gentle narration, while older children can read the stories themselves or follow along with the audio.
Is Sukun Kids on Android?+
Not yet. Sukun Kids is on iPhone and iPad today, and a native Android app is being built right now. Email support@sukunkids.app with the subject "Android" and we'll let you know the day it reaches Google Play. Until then, you can read every story free on this site.
Where do the stories come from?+
Every story is drawn from the Qur'an and trusted classical tafsir, primarily Ibn Kathīr's Stories of the Prophets and Maʿāriful Qur'an. Each story cites its ayah, and scripts are reviewed for accuracy and reverence before they are ever narrated.
Are the prophets pictured?+
No. In keeping with Islamic tradition, no faces of the prophets are ever depicted. The artwork shows the scenes and worlds of the stories (the ark, the sea, the palace), never the figures themselves.
Do you collect my child's data?+
Sukun Kids shows no ads and includes no third-party tracking. It's built for the Kids Category, and your family's listening stays private.
Heroes worth growing into.
