It’s an adorable story of sifr (zero in Arabic) and zero (English numeral) playing hide and seek with each other. Then baby waahid (Arabic number one) and one (English numeral) are sitting on feeding chairs crying and the player has to give them several options so the baby calms down. As a result, my 4-year-old gives me options on what to do when her 1-year-old sister cries 🤣 30) Arabic numbers (arba & khamsa)Parents tend to believe that it is too early to read to babies that can’t talk yet.

He was born in a village in a mountainous place in Western Arabia. Bilal's father was called Rebah and his mother was known as Hamama 1. They had come to Arabia as slaves from Ethiopia. The father and mother were slaves of Ummayya bin Khalaf, a rich man from the tribe of Quraish. Bilal was therefore born in slavery and served as a housekeeper.
