Ameena's Enthusiasm for Learning to Fast During Ramadan, Atta Halilintar Teaches Empathy

The holy month of Ramadan in 2026 is a special moment for the small family of famous YouTuber, Muhammad Attamimi Halilintar, or commonly known as Atta Halilintar. His eldest daughter, Ameena Hanna Nur Atta, has begun to show great enthusiasm for learning to fast, even though she is still very young. Ameena's spirit certainly makes Atta feel very grateful.

Atta shared how his little daughter took the initiative to refrain from hunger and thirst, just like an adult. Although she is not yet required to fast religiously due to her young age, Ameena's strong desire to participate in fasting is a source of pride for her father.

"Alhamdulillah. When the kids want to fast, and she's even excited about fasting, I am truly grateful. Especially since this is one of the obligations as a Muslim, even though she is not required yet because she is still young. But with her wanting to learn and wanting to join in fasting, I am very happy," said Atta Halilintar when met in the Warung Buncit Raya area, South Jakarta, recently.

The background of this story begins with the habits of Atta's family, who always instill religious values from an early age. However, the process of learning to fast for young children is certainly not always smooth. Atta admits that Ameena sometimes felt cranky because she had to resist the urge to eat her favorite snacks like cireng and dates during the day.

"Yes, she was cranky all the time. Not all the time, though... For a bit, because maybe she was fasting for half a day, so the hunger felt quite real," explained Aurel Hermansyah's husband.

The moment of the child's crankiness was actually used by Atta as an effective educational tool. He not only asked Ameena to endure her hunger but also explained the essence behind the act of fasting itself, which is to train social awareness.

Atta provides a simple yet profound understanding to his daughter. He encourages Ameena to imagine how difficult life is for those who are less fortunate out there, who often do not have certainty about their daily food.

"So I teach her, during this fasting month, we are restraining our desires, holding back hunger so that we can care for our friends out there who are less fortunate," Atta wisely stated.

Furthermore, Atta emphasizes the importance of instilling a sense of gratitude in children from a young age. By experiencing a little hunger, Ameena is expected to appreciate the blessings of food that she has been receiving easily.

"So... I said, 'you who just didn’t eat from noon to evening already felt tortured, let alone our friends out there who sometimes can't get food for days, not knowing what to eat tomorrow.' So that his sense of empathy grows, and he can also be grateful for what God gives," concluded Atta.
