Adopt Gradation in Teaching Children

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

From the Story of Prophet Musa and al Khidr, one of the many lessons learnt is to Stop Being Judgmental.

From the point of view of a Teacher/Parent, we learn another lesson: Adopt gradation in addressing and warning your children! Be Polite and at the same time stern in your voice!!

Not Being Judgmental: Lessons from Surah al Kahf

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

In today’s world judging people, giving unnecessary and unsolicited advice has become the norm of the day. When you post a certain post in the social media, for example, you find immediate reaction from some members of the group. They are ready to give their judgement about you and your post. And then, you know, the arguments and counter-arguments start, which at times lead to unhealthy developments among the members of the group.

I was thinking about this last Friday while reading the beautiful story of Prophet Musa and al Khidr. The lessons we learn from this story is very much relevant in contemporary times:

Qur’an is never meant to cause distress of any kind!

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

Qur’an is the Book of Allah. It is the Maker’s Instruction Manual.

He sent this beautiful Book for man’s guidance on earth. As a source of Mercy, as a source of  Light, as a Source of Blessings.

It is meant for human welfare. And never meant, in the least, to put people in distress!

Welcome to the Golden Moments!

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

As per authentic hadeeths, Laylatul Qadr falls in one of the odd nights of the last 10 days of Ramadhaan. 

        So please be reminded that:

Qur’an is Bayaan and Tibyaan as well!

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

Qur’an calls itself Bayaan. Qur’an calls itself Tibyaan.

What is their meaning and what is the difference?

Read on to find an amazing elucidation by the world renowned Arabic scholar, Dr. V. Abdur Rahim.

“Glory be to the One who gives even when He takes”

The Travels and Travails of Dhul-Qarnain

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

Every Friday, many Muslims around the world read this Surah.

It would be great if we take time to reflect over and connect the Qur’anic stories to our real life situations.

This article is an amazing read on one of the finest Qur’anic stories that is an inspiration of all times. Please do take time to read this….inShaaAllah.

Redirecting and Reinforcing ‘If’al Ma Tu’mar’ to Oneself

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

Reflecting on an ayah is an ibadah of a highest kind.

Today as the world celebrates Eid al Adhaa, I would like to discuss on an ayah that celebrates and commemorates the act and the spirit of sacrificing for the cause of Allah.

Reading the story is one thing. Drawing inspiration is another. 

Arafah Package for non-Pilgrims

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

The 9th of Dhul Hijjah is popularly known as the Day of Arafah.

Presenting here a collection on different aspects of Arafah, a Package unto You 🙂 

Critical Thinking: Best Tribute to Prophet Ibraheem

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

These are the blessed days of Dhul Hijjah. And we all know that Hajj is connected with the life and teachings of Prophet Ibraheem alaihis salam.

Qur’an mentions that Prophet Ibraheem is the best role model for all humanity.

What a great tribute indeed it would be if we, as parents and teachers, kindle or lighten up in our children the spark of critical thinking. You know why this is so special, more so when we are indebted to the immaculate contributions of Prophet Ibraheem?

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله

In the name of Allah, all praise is for Allah, and may His peace and blessings be upon His final Messenger Muhammad (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wasallam)

How they would spend their days and nights and what would change for them during the sacred month.
