Abstract

Theism is one of the most fundamental intellectual concerns for children. This cognition gives direction to the child’s life and facilitates the way by which he/she understands the meaning of life. Making children familiar with the Quran and Quranic studies is a deliberate and appropriate way to teach insight to the them. Spiritual interaction with the children through literature and art and paying attention to the aesthetic elements as a basic rule in their religious training can affect their understanding and lead to a better conveyance of religious and Quranic concepts to them. For this aim, the present study analyses ten short and poetic chapters in the Quran for children in terms of “children’s poetry structure” and “appropriate translation of the verses”. The purpose of this article is to show the level of appropriateness and quality of these poems in terms of from and content and to reveal their pros and cons. The results of the research show that there is still a long way to reach flawless, perfect, and accurate samples of such Children’s Poems.
