Part of: Choosing a madrasah bag
ParentsHow to label a madrasah bag and Quran
Label the inside of the madrasah bag with the child's name and a parent's phone number, and put a name label on the Quran's cover rather than writing on the mushaf itself. Add something visually distinctive on the outside, such as a keyring or embossed initials, so the child spots their bag among identical ones.
Where to label
- Inside the bag: full name and a parent's phone number, on a sewn-in or iron-on label
- On the Quran cover: name only. Many people avoid writing on the mushaf itself.
- Exercise book and pencil case: name and class
- Outside: something distinctive, such as a keyring or embossed initials
Safety note
Avoid putting a child's full name and address on the outside of a bag where strangers can read it. Initials outside and full details inside is the safer pattern.
Questions people also ask
