Does Wise Compass show why revenge thinking is harmful and how to let go? 

When a child feels hurt or wronged, the immediate impulse is often to strike back or seek some form of revenge. We want to help them move beyond this cycle of retaliation and toward a place of forgiveness and justice. Wise Compass addresses revenge thinking by showing children that seeking ‘payback’ only keeps the pain alive and often leads to more mistakes. We focus on the beauty of Afw, or pardoning, and the strength that comes from letting go of grudges for the sake of peace and the pleasure of Allah Almighty.
