			How to Deal with teenagers anger
and aggression. Well first figure
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11
			out why they're angry and what
they're angry about, and see if
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:15
			you can remedy that. We've just
had a recent talk that's gone up
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:19
			on zum zum academy that deals more
specifically with, you know,
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:23
			teenagers challenges and so on.
But if it's particularly anger,
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26
			let's find out why they're angry.
Is it something genetic that
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			they've taken from their parents?
Is it because they've learned to
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			do that? Because they've seen
other people are constantly angry?
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:37
			And that's the way they've learned
to, you know, respond, knee jerk
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:41
			reaction? Is it because they've
got some difficulty in their life?
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:44
			Is it because they're frustrated
about something? Is it because
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			there's something else bothering
them, you'd have to actually have
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:51
			a casual, very formal discussion,
very kind of easygoing discussion
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:56
			to try to get this out as to what
the issues are. And then after I
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:00
			tried to find a remedy for that,
so if we can get rid of the cause
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:04
			for that, then maybe the anger
will go away. Plus, then we need
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:07
			to tell them about the Prophet
salallahu alayhi salam, how he
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			dealt with anger and what he said
about anger, what Allah says about
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:13
			anger in the Quran about
controlling it, and then get his
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:17
			like fire and gaze from the
shaytaan. So we need to get them
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:21
			to listen to all of that as well.
The point of a lecture is to
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:25
			encourage people to act to get
further an inspiration, and
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:29
			encouragement, persuasion. The
next step is to actually start
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:34
			learning seriously, to read books
to take on a subject of Islam and
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:37
			to understand all the subjects of
Islam at least at the basic level,
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			so that we can become more aware
of what our deen wants from us.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			And that's why we started Rayyan
courses so that you can actually
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:50
			take organize lectures on demand
whenever you have free time,
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:54
			especially for example, the
Islamic essentials course that we
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:57
			have on there, the Islamic
essentials certificate, which you
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:01
			take 20 Short modules, and at the
end of that inshallah you will
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:07
			have gotten the basics of most of
the most important topics in Islam
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			and you'll feel a lot more
confident. You don't have to leave
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:12
			lectures behind you can continue
to live, you know, to listen to
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:15
			lectures, but you need to have
this more sustained study as well.
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:18
			JazakAllah Heron salaam aleikum wa
rahmatullah wa barakato.
