The Brave Ant and Prophet Sulaiman

This is a serialised ongoing story, so jumping in at episode 10, for example, could confuse matters.

Listen to episode one here

When the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ receives a command from Allah to share the message of Islam with all of Makkah, he climbs Mount Safa to make a bold, public call for truth. But not everyone is happy to hear it—including his own uncle, Abu Lahab. In this powerful episode, Zaki, Captain Suhail, and Noora explore the courage it takes to speak up, even when it’s hard.

With heartfelt storytelling, sound-rich scenes, and a whole lot of hoopoe and seagull humor, this story brings the streets of Makkah and the hearts of its people to life.

Moral of the story: Speaking the truth with kindness takes real courage—especially when it’s not popular.
