Anak itu hadiah dari Allah.
untuk menolong kita masuk syurga.
a child is Allah's gift to help us enter Jannah.
that's what she said during the Raising Young Khalifah seminar we joined.
(i havent fully blog about what i have learned there.)
this was said by the founder of Little Chaliph.
i was truly inspired by her words. her motivation.
her vision.
i cant recall all the input. too bad.
but one thing i remember is the above statement.
a child is Allah's gift to us.
but.
to help us to enter Jannah.
thus, how we shape, teach, provide, show our child, affect the being that
we are raising.
if we raise him/her following Allah's way,
insyaAllah, Jannah is ours.
if we fail to provide her/him with her/his rights as a muslim,
then the right for us to enter Jannah will also be taken away.
she told us stories on how she and her husband raise their family.
they raised tahfiz/tahfizah so it was kind of difficult.
they dont have tv for about 5 years.
and when they finally bought a tv, no astro whatsoeva.
tgk pun kabur2 je so that tak nampak scene2 tak elok.
haha
and the husband is very particular about reading materials in their house.
magazines with women not covering aurah are forbidden.
newspapers are forbidden.
all those contain information not suitable for growing children.
rape,lust,sex,sodomize
children who are starting to read, will tend to read everything they can read.
so, by exposing them to sensitive words at a very2 young age
may not be suitable.
it is not the time for them to understand.
yet.
it's hard to do what they do.
i, myself, am trying to live without tv.
i dont let it conquer my life.
but at moments, i'd like to unwind and relax.
now, ayra is being a sponge.
absorbing everything she sees.
including the Hi5 videos on tv that Nena likes to put on.
then she starts dancing and moving and being all cute.
we simply cannot resist her cuteness.
hm..
how do we deal with that??
Anak itu anugerah.
anak itu ibarat kain putih.
kita la yang mendidik dan mencorak nya.
i am trying.hard
