THE STORY OF ABU NAWAS accompanied my childhood. This story is very well known in our country (Indonesia) and maybe also in other countries where the majority of the population is Muslim. Abu Nawas is described as a smart, cunning and humorous figure. He is always able to solve the problems he faces with solutions that no one else has ever thought of. The story of Abu Nawas greatly influences our mindset and actions as children, including: Even though we are naughty, we are taught to respect our parents, study hard, pray, read the Al-Qur'an and never give up. The whole Abu Nawas story always leaves meaning and wisdom for its listeners and interestingly all of these stories have good humor and are educational so they are very suitable for children to listen to.

I find it difficult to make a list of children's stories that I have heard because there are so many inspirational stories that have been told. At that time the development of the digital world was not as massive as it is now so that the only source of stories was word of mouth from parents, grandparents, uncles or from our friends. Our fellow children also often share stories we have heard. But what I remember well, besides the story of Abu Nawas, the history of the struggle of the Prophets was also often told to us as part of our religious studies.

Currently, only inspirational stories from the Prophets are still being told to my children and nephews. As for the story of Abu Nawas, I can only tell a few stories. Missing a piece of the whole story can eliminate the meaning or moral message of the story. Now I can't remember it completely.

No, I haven't made up my own children's story yet. I only tell from stories that I have heard or that I read from a book. However. I understand correctly, stories are an effective medium for conveying moral messages that educate children. The connection that is built between parents and children stimulates children's brains to absorb the message to be conveyed from the story.

Thank you for taking your valuable time to visit and read this post. Any comments are greatly appreciated. Many blessings.

Kind regards,
Harferri
