Assalamoalaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuh

I'm actually the distributor of an Islamic game called 'Mecca to Medina'. It's a trading game with many Islamic themes running through it - a bit like a halal version of monopoly (i.e. no interest, mortgaging, unfair fees and taxes etc.)

The game is designed for 2-6 players aged 8 and upwards, but can also be simplified for children as young as 6.

Please click on the Mecca to Medina banner in my signature to visit the website, or alternatively, place your order through MS products and help Muftisays (20% of the sale will go to MS)

Fee amaanillah
Wassalaam

Just found a fantastic link.


I will certainly be looking into stocking all of these games in the near future, insha Allah.


In the meantime, do check it out:


www.irf.net/childrenswing/middle/playinggames.htm
Some of the numbers are very old, so you'll have to update it. Actually, I just tried the first one, and they're both invalid *sad*


Good luck ! Let me know if you do find the stockist, please. Jazakumullah Khairun.

That the ones I'm looking for: Steps to Paradise like, monoplay rather the money you earn sawabs and Snakes and Ladders for Muslim Children is very good I heard, you go up the ladder when you obey Allah huqum and go down the snake if you disobey allah.


shahly- I will look into buying Mecca to Medina and tell others, as 20% is going into a good cause MS!

It maybe just that the code numbers have changed.


(I'm sure back in those days the code for London was 01...)


Try 0208 or 0207.


I pray you get through


Hope this helps.

01 = 081/071 = 0181/0171 = 020(8/7)

so
020 8555 5434
020 7555 5434
020 8372 7624
020 7372 4624

Seems like really old numbers

Assalamualaykum


I remember 'Steps to Paradise'! I always wanted one when I was younger..I heard they've stopped doing them. Do let us know if they are still selling, it would be nice to play that with some youg children.
