Home / Ramadan Zone / Printable Colouring Pages
Colouring is the quiet superpower of Ramadan afternoons: it settles excited children in the last hour before iftar, gives grandparents and grandchildren something to do side by side, and turns a screen-free half hour into a small act of calm. This page offers six original line-art designs — a mosque with dome and minarets, a crescent moon and star, a fanous lantern, a dates palm, the Kaaba, and a geometric star pattern for older children and adults — each printable on its own and downloadable as an SVG file.
Every design is drawn as clean black outlines on white with chunky shapes for small hands and no fiddly detail that frustrates a five-year-old. The geometric pattern is the exception on purpose: its interlocking stars reward patience and make a genuinely beautiful finished piece for a card front or a frame. Print on ordinary paper with ordinary pencils — nothing here needs special supplies.
The mosque page is the classic opener: a big central dome, two minarets and a row of arched windows that invite rainbow experimentation or careful realism. The crescent and star is the fastest page — ideal for the youngest children and for that restless twenty minutes while the iftar rice finishes. The lantern (fanous) carries a lovely talking point: lanterns lit Ramadan evenings in Egypt and across the region for centuries, long before electric lights.
The dates palm teaches while it colours — the fruit that breaks a million fasts grows at the top, and children remember that association. The Kaaba page is drawn simply and should be treated with the respect children naturally offer when you explain what it is: keep the finished page somewhere honoured rather than on the floor. The geometric star pattern closes the set as the family challenge page — put it on the table during taraweeh breaks and watch adults quietly join in.
Each design has two buttons. Print opens your browser's print flow with only that design on the page — choose A4 or Letter, and if your printer offers a 'fit to page' option, leave it on so the borders survive. Download SVG saves the artwork as a vector file: it stays perfectly sharp at any size, opens in any browser, and can be enlarged by a print shop into a poster for a classroom or mosque children's corner without going fuzzy.
Print on the thickest paper your printer tolerates if felt-tips are involved, because thin paper bleeds through at exactly the moment a child presses hardest. For a reusable set, slip printed pages into clear sleeves and hand out dry-erase markers — the same six designs then last the whole month in a classroom or siblings' rotation.
A coloured page is a decoration waiting to happen. String the finished set along a ribbon as a Ramadan bunting across a doorway; mount the mosque and lantern pages as the front of handmade greeting cards (the card maker on this site can supply the inside message); let each child colour one page per week and date the back, so the month accumulates on the fridge as a visible countdown of its own.
Teachers and mosque schools: these pages pair well with a two-minute story per picture — why we break fast with dates, what a minaret is for, how geometric patterns decorate mosques without images of people. Colouring holds attention while the story lands, which is exactly why the combination has survived in classrooms for generations.
Yes — print as many copies as you need for home, school, mosque and community use. Please do not sell the uncoloured designs themselves.
SVG is a vector format: the lines are mathematical, so the design prints sharply at any size from a worksheet to a poster. It opens in any web browser.
The crescent and star — the shapes are the biggest and simplest. The geometric pattern is designed for older children and adults.
The designs are portrait A4-shaped and fill a portrait page best. Your printer's 'fit to page' setting handles Letter paper automatically.
