Janin: Mother, the teacher of arts said that I have a sweet voice and I shall have a promising future with singing. The mother: Indeed, Allah granted you a nice voice, but may Allah guide the teacher of arts to the truth for encouraging you to sins. Janin: Why is that, mother? Why did Allah grant me such a gift if it is prohibited to use? The mother: O sweetheart, Allah may grant you a sweet voice as He grants you another gift such as drawing, beauty, good shape, longness, or money. The blessings of Allah are countless, so how should we use each one [...]

Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "When I start Salah I intend to prolong it, but on hearing the cries of a child, I cut short the Salah because I know that the cries of the child will incite its mother's passions." Lessons gained from the Hadith: 1- It contains a proof that the one who starts Salah with the intention of prolonging it may lighten it for a benefit. 2- It shows the Prophet's mercy with his nation, particularly with the weak: Women and children. 3- The great kindness of the Prophet (peace be upon him) who started Salah with an intention [...]

The biography of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) showed how was the Prophet keen to teach young children and play with them in a friendly prophetic manner which, in turn, contributed in building the characters of young Companions who were brought up in the prophetic community and made of them a good core for building the community of the second generation of Muslims which was the second best century after the century of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Hence, you see the Prophet (peace be upon him) playing with a child whose name was `Umayr ibn Malik, the younger brother [...]

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. O young people, Allah created you from a despised water. "And it is He Who has created man from water, and has appointed for him kindred by blood, and kindred by marriage. And your Lord is Ever All-Powerful (to do what He wills)." [Surat Al Furqan: 54]. And granted you minds to think, ears to hear, and sights to see. "Then He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him the soul (created by Allâh for that person); and He gave you hearing (ears), sight (eyes) and hearts. Little is the thanks [...]

Allah (may He be Exalted) says: "And those who say: Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring the comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders of the Muttaqûn (the pious)." The previous Ayah included the qualities of high spiritual energy which seek high goals in regard to religion. It does not want you to be only a righteous person, but also wants you to be a leader to the righteous. To me, I may be a good example for others in clothes, dealings with the people, and dealing with my husband, but did anyone of us ask herself: [...]

During the family visits, while children are engaging in play with one another, a mother finds her child clings to her and refuses to play with its peers, moreover it may hasten to scream when she urges it to merge with its companions who fill the house with noise and vitality! He is a shy kid, but many mothers exaggerate and consider it a problem. After the age of four, some children make friends, whereas others stumble and take a long time in integration with those around him. Both types of children are normal, and it is important for the mother [...]
