Tip for Raising Children: Love and Positive Associations

Leave a comment

118670658.jpg

As members of this Muslim Ummah, we must strive harder to play a central role in building a solid Muslim identity in our children.

Some tips for parents:

It is important for parents to spend quality time with their children and show their love to them. Time and love will develop a deeply rooted relationship of mutual trust. It will pave a pathway for open communication, strong foundation for their emotional well-being and a beautiful shelter in their own homes.

In this context, parents must develop their children’s experiences in such a way that they always have positive associations with Islam. Such positive memories will help instil the love of our beautiful Deen in their hearts.

Negative associations on the other hand, typically linked to parental strictness, constant threats of Allah’s punishment and impossibly high standards, will forever link the Deen to feelings of pessimism, dread and helplessness. This coupled with the constant barrage of peer pressure faced in schools is causing many of our youth to leave the Deen.

May Allah make our children those who have piety and taqwa. May Allah make our children strong leaders for this Muslim Ummah who abide by the Quran and Sunnah. Ameen.

Converting to Islam is simple process.

If anyone wants to become muslim with strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-beings, then, one should say the “shahada”.

The Shahada is as follows :

 “ASH-HADU ANLA ELAHA ILLA-ALLAH WA ASH-HADU ANNA MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH”.

The English translation is : “I bear witness that there is no deity (none truly to be worshipped) but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is the messenger of Allah.”

One should believe in it by heart with a firm conviction and unshakeable faith. If one is truly sincere and complies with the teachings of Islam in all his life, he will find himself a new born person.

Thats it!

Sponsor an Orphan

Leave a comment

Muslim (2983) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said:
The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The one who sponsors an orphan, whether it is a relative of his or not, he and I will be like these two in Paradise,” and Maalik pointed with his forefinger and middle finger.

There are many Muslim development/relief organizations working on the ground to provide aid to orphans in need. With their help, we have the opportunity to sponsor orphans through monthly donations. Do not miss out on the reward! 

May Allah accept our charitable efforts! Ameen
