What should we teach our children?

*We should be teaching them stories* like *Abu Bakr* (ra)’s loyalty and undying service for his master, *Umar ibn Khatthab* (ra)’s love for justice and tolerance, *Uthman ibn Affan* (ra)’s level of shyness and modesty, *Ali ibn Abi-Talib* (ra)’s show of courage and bravery, *Khalid ibn Waleed* (ra)’s desire of combating evil, *Fatima bint Muhammad* (ra)’s love and respect to her father, *Sallahuddin Al-Ayubi* (ra)’s conquest of the promised land, and much much more to tell about… Above all, we should teach them about *Allah* (subhanahu wa ta'ala), *Qur’an* and the *Sunnah* with love ... it is a very important aspect! And then see how the change begins...! InshaAllah ! Source: Whatsaap message

What is Afiyah?

Al-Abbas (R.A.), the uncle of the Prophet (Pbuh), came to the Prophet (Pbuh) and said: “Ya Rasulullah, teach me a du'a.” The Prophet (Pbuh) said: “O my uncle, say: Allahumma inni asaluka al-afiyah (O Allah, I ask you for afiyah).” Now what is Afiyah? Afiyah means - “to save me from any afflictions. To be healthy, you are in afiyah. To have enough money, you are in afiyah. To live, you are in afiyah. To have your children protected, you are in afiyah. And if you are forgiven and not punished, you are in afiyah." So basically Afiyah means: “O Allah, protect me from any pain and suffering.” This includes both dunya and akhirah. Al-Abbas (R.A.) thought about this for a while, and then he came back after a few days and said (paraphrased): “Ya Rasulullah, this du'a seems a little short. I want something big.” The Prophet (Pbuh) said: “My dear uncle, ask Allah for Afiyah for Wallahi, you cannot be given anything better than afiyah.” It is a simple du'a.

Its all about connection of heart:

There was a Sheikh who was teaching his students Aqeedah (Faith), He taught them 'La ilaha illa Allah' and explained it's meaning to them. The Sheikh loved keeping pets, so he was given a parrot by one of the students as a gift. And with days the Sheikh started to like the parrot. He used to take it to his lessons, until the parrot knew how to say "La ilaha illa Allah", and would  utter it day and night. One day the students found their Sheikh crying and sobbing. When they asked him the reason, he told them that a cat attacked the parrot and killed it. They said: "Is this the reason you are crying?"... If you wish we will bring you another parrot better than that one. The Sheikh said: I am not crying because of this... But it made me cry when the cat attacked the parrot. It was shouting and screaming until it died. He used to say la ilaha illa Allah a lot. However, when he was attacked by a cat he forgot to say it. He did nothing but scream
