Parenting- the environment you give at home is the best training for him : so keep building on it-

The Task of Parenting.

Little did we know that the technologically savvy world would impose such a big challenge on the upbringing of children .The artificial dazzle of media and technology has made it very difficult for the parents to raise children on the right lines.

Nevertheless this Hadith gives all parents a great inspiration:

an infant is born on the FITHRAH(the true nature of Islam) it is his parents who make him a Jew or a Christian ...
Sahih Muslim- Kitab ul Qadr .
So let each parent be assured and be confident that every child has the islamic inclination and fibre by default in his innate nature .
This hope and faith shall bring shall be a big asset for parents in their task of parenting and shall also bring in positivity in their approach .

The second aspect highlighted in this hadith is of great importance in the present scenario .The fact that has been highlighted therein is about the importance of parents and their method of parenting .The early education and upbringing of the child which begins in the lap of the mother is like stone work which is everlasting and extremely strong. Just as a child learns the mother tongue without any extra training and effort similarly he picks up the essentials of the Shariah and Sunnah from the environment at home .

Besides what is of real importance for parents is their ardent desire and duas to see their offsprings grow up as God fearing moomins.
The unequalled Spiritual excellence of Bibi Mariam was actually initiated by the ardent ardent desire of her mother
انى نذرت لك ما فى بطنى محررا(أل عمران)
that she vowed to dedicate her offspring to the service of The Almighty :Subhaanallah!h the result was the pious virgin BiBi Mariyam who was spoken of in the Holy Quran with such rare reverence and dignity.

So while we move forward towards achieving success in this challenging task of parenting ,we need to hold on to these basic principles:

1. Be sure that your child has the feature of Islam as his innate nature :
so keep working at it .
2. the environment you give at home is the best training for him : so keep building on it.
3.The duas of the parents in the interest of their children will never go unanswered, so keep praying hard.

Slicing Through the Ego: The Internal Qurbani:

- # Beyond the Sacrifice: What is Your "Ismail" This Eid ul Adha? 🌙 **Eid Mubarak!** 🌙 Every year, as the global Muslim community gathers to celebrate Eid ul Adha, our focus naturally turns to the tradition of *Qurbani* (sacrifice). We prepare the animals, distribute the meat, and share meals with family and neighbors. But if we pause and look past the physical rituals, a profound spiritual question emerges. **Eid ul Adha is not just about sacrificing an animal. It is about sacrificing whatever stands between you and Allah.** ## The True Essence of Qurbani: Trust Over Fear When Prophet Ibrahim (AS) left his wife, Hajara (AS), and their infant son in the barren desert of Makkah, he didn’t leave them in fear—he left them in absolute, unwavering trust of Allah. And years later, when he raised the knife above his beloved son, Ismail (AS), it wasn't an act of cruelty. It was the ultimate demonstration of submitting his will to the Divine. > **The realization:** The knife...

The Last Sermon (Khutbah) of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (Farewell Sermon):

- The Last Sermon (Khutbah) of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (Farewell Sermon) Prophet Muhammad ﷺ delivered His ﷺ last sermon (Khutbah) on the ninth of Dhul Hijjah (12th and last month of the Islamic year), 10 years after Hijrah (migration from Makkah to Madinah) in the Uranah Valley of Mount Arafat. His ﷺ words were quite clear and concise and were directed to the entire humanity. After praising, and thanking Allah He ﷺ said: “O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and TAKE THESE WORDS TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY. O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your LORD, and that HE will indeed reckon your deeds. AL...

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...

And when Allah eradicates his trouble, the human then boasts it and credits it to his mastery and starts denying the establishment of Doomsday. And even if he believes in its establishment, he wishfully thinks to possess Allah’s blessings there too. • The chapter ends with the declaration of the truthfulness of the Holy Quran • Surah Shura: Sura means advice or consultation. • This chapter says that the people of Allah settle their important matters and issues by seeking advice and consultations. • Th...

Don’t fall into being from those who are unjust and falsely assume:

- ASSUME GOOD OF PEOPLE: 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 A girl willingly jumps into a car after the male driver who sees her walking in the streets tells her to get in. 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 A man walks into a mosque while everyone is praying to wash his hands and leaves it without joining the prayer. 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 A teenage boy is greeted by a passerby but doesn’t return the Salam. 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 - 1st scenario: the driver was the girl’s brother - 2nd scenario: the man had already prayed in a mosque nearby which finished earlier - 3rd scenario: the teenage boy is deaf 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 Many people will fall into this trap of assuming bad of others. How can a girl ever agree to ride with her guy friend, how can a man dare to enter a mosque and leave without joining in on prayer and how can young boy not have respect and answer back the greeting. 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 A scholar once said: “If I see my brother and his beard is dripping alcohol...
