Protecting our young children from the worldly dirt/desires around us:

 -

Thoughts from Umm Khalid:


Yesterday, I went to a store with a friend, and there was a very friendly older woman behind the counter who chatted with us. She seemed eager to talk, so for several minutes, we obliged her. We got to talking about kids.


"How many kids do you each have?" she asked us.


"Three," my friend answered. 


"Four," I answered. 


"Wow! Having 3 or 4 kids is hard! Yeah, my daughter has 4 kids too. Her youngest is a 7-year-old daughter, who's so cute! You wanna see her? Here, I have some adorable videos of her on my phone!"


She was a proud grandma who was dying to talk about and show off her granddaughter. My friend and I smiled, and looked on with friendly interest as she pulled out her phone. 


But much to my consternation, I watched this grandmother pull up video after video on TikTok of this 7-year-old granddaughter dancing, lip syncing, and twerking to pop music and rap songs! With explicit lyrics, about sexual topics and about going to the club and drinking. This innocent young child was singing along and dancing to Rihanna's "Rude Boy," Beyonce's "Single Ladies," and other filth.


I looked on in disbelief. 


My own oldest child is almost 8 years old. It made my heart hurt to see how this child of a similar age was singing and moving in such an adult-like way. It made me incredibly sad.


"She just loves TikTok! Isn't she so cute?? She's really something!" The grandmother said, laughing. 


I tried to hide my unease. "She's really something," I echoed, unwilling to praise such behavior but not wanting to offend this proud, beaming grandmother. 


As I thought about this incident as we left, I wondered how the grandmother, and also the parents, of this 7-year-old girl allowed her to make these highly sexualized vidoes and actually post them publicly on TikTok. 


How do they not recognize the erosion of innocence of this child?


How are they comfortable with the explicit lyrics and the overtly sexual nature of the dance moves?


How are they fine with strangers, unknown adults all over the internet, watching their young daughter move in such a way, enjoying the sight of her, thinking sick thoughts about her?


Society is pushing us firmly and aggressively in this direction. It's a comprehensive agenda, a social engineering tactic. To create a generation of highly sexualized young kids in a hyper-sexualized modern society. 


It's a deliberate, concerted effort. An organized attack on childhood, innocence, purity. 


Have you heard of the new show that Netflix is pushing these days? 


It's called Cuties, and it's about an 11-year-old Muslim girl who tries to fit into American society by learning to twerk and dance suggestively and sexually. The show is so sexual and so explicit that Netflix gave it a rating of "MA," for mature audiences only, meaning that viewers of this show should be 18 years or older to watch it.


You need to be 18 years old to watch this 11-year-old. 


This young Muslim girl.


لا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله. 


There is no might or power except with Allah. 


Parents of Muslim children, protect your children!

Being accessible, lenient, tender, and easy to get along with

 - Ibn Mas‘ūd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not inform of whom Hellfire is forbidden for? Or he is forbidden for Hellfire? It is forbidden for someone who is accessible, lenient, tender, and easy to get along with."     [Authentic hadith] - [Narrated by At-Termedhy - Narrated by Ahmad] الشرح Shall I not inform you of whom Hellfire is forbidden to burn? It is forbidden for he who is accessible to people, who sits with them in the places of worship, and treat them kindly to the best of his ability; and he who is forbearing, lenient, and tolerant in dealing with them.

So he asked his adviser, Robert Crane, to read and summarize the article.    Robert read the article a...

How does Allah Ta’ala increase when He accepts the sadaqah!:

- It is a story from 1282 Hijri, that is, 160 years ago. There was a noble and righteous woman named Munira in the city of Buraidah, Saudi Arabia. She intended to bequeath her jewellery to her brother before she died and instructed him to buy a shop from that money. Whatever income would come from this shop would be spent to fulfill the needs of masakeen.  After her death, her brother sold the jewellery and bought a shop in the name of his sister, which was worth twelve riyals according to the currency of the period. He rented the shop and the rent money was used to attend to the needs of masakeen. This continued for nearly 100 years. After 100 years, the monthly rent of the shop had reached 15,000 riyals and through this money more things were provided for the needy. Then came the day when the Saudi government decided to expand the Mosque of Buraidah and decided to acquire land and shops within the vicinity of the expansion site. The shop of the deceased woman was within the bound...

Isra was the beloved’s ﷺ journey from Makkah to Jerusalem, and Meraj was that from Jerusalem to the Heavens. •        This chapter also mentions in detail many incidents of Bani Israel. •        Allah’s wisdom behind taking Prophet Muhammed ﷺ to Jerusalem was to grant him and his followers the custodianship of Masjid al-Aqsa, just like that of Masjid al-Haraam in Makkah.  •        Though this chapter is themed at Tawheed, morals, affirmation of the Doomsday, but it also focuses on messengership, and particularly in that of Prophet Muhammed’s ﷺ. •        The ...

Quran Juz 7 – Wa Iza Sami’u - Summary:

 - Quran Juz 7 – Wa Iza Sami’u Summary Join Us: https://chat.whatsapp.com/EwGX2NFn95O2Bo92HkyyiI • Allah talks about those Christians who cannot control their tears when they listen to the Qur’anic recitation. This was especially in context to Najashi Ash’amah, the Christian King of Habsha who had accepted Islam. • From Verses 87 of Surah Maidah the topics like Halal & Haram and extremism are discussed. • Islam is a religion of balance. It neither calls for abstention of permissible items (for drinking, eating, wearing etc.) as piety, nor does it abolish the distinction between Halal & Haram. • Verse 89 talks about oaths (qasm/aqd). The penalty of breaking the oath is to either feed 10 poor and needy, twice, with an average food of his/her usual intake (cost wise), or to clothe them, or to free a slave. If someone cannot do it, he/she should fast on three days. Allah also advices to be true on oaths to be safe from getting penalized. • If a person takes an oath of...

Allaah did not call him Khaleel after a single moment. The friendship ripened through repeated surrender, across fire and desert and stone:

 - Allaah did not call him Khaleel after a single moment. The friendship ripened through repeated surrender, across fire and desert and stone. - Taqwa, when it matures in the crucible of trial, is the precise and correct ordering of the loves within a heart. It is the absolute knowledge of which love sits upon the throne, and which loves, however deep, however true, however entirely lawful, must bow beneath it.  - Tawakkul is the heart’s genuine reliance upon Allaah as the sole ultimate cause of all things, combined with the employment of every legitimate means. Islam teaches freedom from servitude to causes without teaching contempt for them. It is the settled condition of a heart that has understood that creation possesses only delegated force. What burns burns because it is permitted to burn; what heals heals because it is permitted to heal. No thing in creation holds or withholds what belongs solely to the Creator. - Hasbunallaahu wa ni’mal Wakeel. Allaah is sufficient for...

Some of the traditional methods of raising children in Tarim (Yemen):

*Raising children* Some of the traditional methods of raising children in Tarim (Yemen). This is really beautiful. Women expecting children would ensure every morsel going into their mouths was halal. Breastfeeding mothers would repeatedly recite Ayah al-Kursi, Surah al-Falaq, Surah al-Nas and du'as of protection over their babies. When a child first began to speak it would be taught to say: رَضِيتُ بِاللهِ رَبّاً، وبِالإِسْلامِ دِيناً، و بسيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَبِيَّاً ورَسُولاً ‘I am content with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion, and with our Master Muhammad ﷺ as my Prophet and Messenger.’ Parents would teach their children the importance of making good intentions and what intentions to make just as they would teach them how to recite Surat al-Fatiha. Parents would teach their children to call upon Allah in every situation. If a child asked for something, his parents would tell him to perform wudu, pray two rak'ats and then ask Allah to fulfil his...
