Bismillah Soleimani Kamara hit the light well better catch. Ramadan

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

is a time of disciplining and fortifying the body and the soul.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:21

Naturally, a lot of us focus on our own worship and development

00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

this month, and sometimes take the opposite direction when it comes

00:00:25 --> 00:00:29

to our children. Instead of teaching them to make the most of

00:00:29 --> 00:00:33

the month for themselves, we make excuses for why they can't fast

00:00:34 --> 00:00:37

why they shouldn't stay too late at the masjid why they shouldn't

00:00:37 --> 00:00:41

wake up for budget. So for most children, Ramadan becomes a

00:00:41 --> 00:00:45

countdown to eat. They're just on the sidelines waiting for the days

00:00:45 --> 00:00:50

to pass. What if we actually encourage them to fast a day?

00:00:51 --> 00:00:54

If not for a whole day? Maybe a few hours? What if instead of

00:00:54 --> 00:00:57

letting them sleep through a budget, so that we could enjoy a

00:00:57 --> 00:01:02

quiet so who we actually woke them up and ask them to join us? What

00:01:02 --> 00:01:06

if we let them stay overnight at the masjid for the PMS? What would

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

they see?

00:01:08 --> 00:01:13

They would see and experience dedication. They would see and

00:01:13 --> 00:01:17

experience sacrifice, and they would see and experience what love

00:01:17 --> 00:01:23

for God above comfort and ease really means this Ramadan let us

00:01:23 --> 00:01:28

engage our children in the struggles as well as the joys of

00:01:28 --> 00:01:32

this beloved month. Let them endure hardship for the sake of

00:01:32 --> 00:01:36

God so that they taste the sweetness of the struggle for his

00:01:36 --> 00:01:42

sake for themselves instead of just watching us just like walk in

00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
