To produce a fun entertaining yet educational cartoon episode for our children to benefit from.


Build the Leaders of Tomorrow

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

My name is Ahmad Philips, and I have a degree in Animation. I used to love watching cartoons in my youth. They were an inspiration to me as an only child. I found myself studying how they were made even at the age of 10, and now unsurprisingly I want to make my own but from an Islamic basis.

The leaders of tomorrow are the youth of today. Unfortunately the youth of today are watching immoral entertainment which is corrupting their minds and hearts.  I'm striving to give children, including my own, an alternative to watch. The response I've gotten from The Muslims Cartoon episode 1 and Graphic Novel has been amazing. There aren't many other cartoons like this one with good animation, a good story, a good message,  and all without it being perceived as preachy. Our Muslim children deserve better, and I'm working to do my small part to give them just that Insha'Allah. I invite you all to share in this noble cause for our youth.

An Ongoing Charity

With your help, we can make this possible Insha'Allah.  If you like our ideas, and what you’ve seen here, then please donate, and share this video. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “When a man dies, his good deeds come to an end except three: ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge and a righteous son who will pray for him.” Narrated by Muslim, 3084.

This will be an ongoing charity because your donation will be of benefit to every child that sees it, even after you die.  The goal of the show is to instill Islamic values to the children, which would Insha'Allah add to their righteousness.


The Impact

Developing a cartoon series is an expensive, time consuming task. Even so, we feel the need for Islamic content for children is so great, that we will be releasing the episodes for free! Something as amazing as this shouldn’t be limited to only people capable to pay for it. It should be readily available for as many people as possible!


    Risks & Challenges

    We've already successfully produced the first episode along with a graphic novel available on Amazon. By Allah's will this project will be completed and your hard earned money will be a benefit for those who watch it for years to come.
