Fun Games for The Muslim Family  
For Small Groups
 
 
 
Naming: Everyone in the group takes turns in naming one item in decided category.
If you can't name something on your turn, you are out. (eg- names of sahaba,
names if cities in Muslim world, name of surahs, etc...)
A more challenging version is to name an item only if it starts with the same
letter that item ended with



Nuh(a. s)'s Ark: One person privately thinks of general category ( eg- words that have an
"a" in them, words that are five letter long, things that are green ). Each
person says a word which he/she hopes is within that category. If it is,
"Nuh" will let him into the ark; if it is not, the person must wait until
his/ her next turn to guess again. The people who are not in the ark
after 2 (or 3) rounds will "drown".


Haram Letter: The quizmaster declares one ( or two ) letters of the alphabet to be
haram. He/she will ask each person in the group a different question.
They must answer it in 10 seconds without using the haram letter (s).
If they do, they get a sin (just kidding--they are out).



Story Building: The first person in the group says a word. Other people in turn add on a
word to follow the last one so that a sentence is built. As the sequence
continues, a whole story will be composed!
A more challenging version is when everyone must contribute two
phrases at a time, but your first phrase must rhyme with the previous
phrase. (eg- "We set our tent in a field, because we were about to camp, but the
grass was very damp. Then came the wind and rain..")


Hafiz's Game: One person in the group start off a list of something ( eg- items bought at
a store, or a movement ). Then the next person in in line repeats the last
words ( or does the last movements), and adds a new one to the list.
Each person must repeat the previous list and add one. If you make a
mistake you are out.
