etc. What can I do to impact the world positively, it's very easy
for us to feel despondent
and then just take a backseat
and hope for the best.
The reality at the end of the day
is that there is something we can do.
The
In fact,
it's not just a possible solution.
It's something that we are obligated to do.
That that's none other than
providing
our children
with the sound upbringing
and a good example.
If we look at every major figure in our history, that's impacted
society positively.
Right?
If we look at every major figure that's impacted our society
positively, and provided positive change behind that individual,
more often than not, I would argue 90% of the time, you would find
behind that individual was a parent who had very high
aspirations
and provided the child with a good upbringing.
We should never ever underestimate what that can do.
We look at the likes of Mr. Musharraf here I am Allah Allah
the likes of Imam Abu Hanifa Rahim Allah to Allah the likes of Imam
Al Ghazali Rahim Allah Allah likes every moment now when we refer
them Allah to Allah. The likes of remember Suki Rahim Allah to Allah
the likes of Imam or rumley Rahim Allah Tala. Even Catherine de Oh
yesterday, more contemporary scholars the lecture of Sheikh
Mustafa slavery that actually of Sheikh Muhammad died Ramadan al
booty. Wala when we read the biographies.
What stood out to me once every single one of them
was motivated by the parents. Every single one of them had a
parent standing behind him that had very high aspirations, very
strong wool, and Tawakkol and Allah subhanaw taala and then
provided them with a good upbringing.
That's true for
most scholars, we do get we do get the the rare case the likes of
amendments to UT Rahimullah to Allah was an orphan. The likes of
even hudgell hate me, Rahim Allah Allah, who was an orphan, and then
divine intervention came through. We don't know perhaps the parents
did have high aspirations but didn't live long enough to see the
success.
So what's imperative for us
in today's time,
is to ensure that we have very high aspirations for our children,
and then to provide them with a very good upbringing.
In fact, more
today,
in today's time,
it's more
we are obligated to do so given the attacks on the morality of our
children.
And given the attacks on the upbringing of our children, it's
not only an optional thing now, it's not only you know, if I feel
like it, it's a necessary step for us, for us to take.
And if we see the impact that these people had in society, the
likes of environment of us early the likes of Muhammad Al Fatiha,
who conquered Constantinople, his mother from a very young age had
this aspiration for him.
The likes of Sheikh Salah Kadena UB, who conquered Palestine, the
likes of Imam Al Ghazali on intellectual level, who took on
the shiny balconies at the time, we took on the philosophers and by
the way, today we still use Immanuel fatalis works to
understand philosophy. The first book you wrote was Maqasid will
philosopher the aims of the philosophers the second of the his
work was widely accepted, hidden is enrolled at the half
philosopher, the incoherence of the philosophers. So on every
aspect, we see how the positive change that these individuals
brought into society that was fueled by the parents intentions,
the parents aspirations and the parents,
the parents ensuring that they have a good upbringing and a good
education. Now, the reality
is that I don't think any individual who
argue against this. I don't think any individual who deny that he
wants this for his child but the the many of us feel like how do we
get the so Mr. Ma Rahmanir Rahim Allah Allah, one of the scholars
when we just mentioned
a 10th century chef, a Judas, one of the most important important
Shafi scholars, because we refer back to his work. So today in
order to know if any of the Shafi AI books contradict him, Ahmed
Ramillies, books, those those views are put aside, and his book
is considered the preponderant view in the madhhab. So this is a
big figure we're speaking about. Remember Rahmanir Rahim Allah
Allah writes 100, roughly 100 lines of poetry,
addressing the parents and the upbringing of the children.
And so, I'd wish to touch on two three of these points that Mr.
Romney puts forth, for us to ensure
that our children follow the same to the trajectory that the likes
of Mr. Romney and others had. One of the first things you mama
Romney says.
He says,
Are you born Noah Chu Lucia, told us Savi and Calima you
he says, Be sure to busy your child or other the heart of your
child. So yeah uses the word.
What Aidan Sugarland Sheriff, pelvis. Sabe uses the word hot
pile, which literally means hot, but the word call
and intellect the word hot and intellect and intellect is
interchangeable given the context. So the commentators on this verse,
they use both,
they say the first thing you need to do, they tackle it from the
intellectual side, ensure that the mind of the child is busy.
With those things that are gradually developing his
intellect.
These are the commentators speaking, I'm just delivering the
message. They say, lack of focus, and racing thoughts are
detrimental to the development of the child's intellect. And this
can be avoided
by avoiding busying the child's mind with randomness directly,
direct, directionless, content,
whatever,
the same email telling you, the child can sit down for four hours
with a book, the same email that they're not unrealistic. They tell
you know, they learn through play, they learning through play.
However, what the minds are being consumed, consumed, consumed with
must be directed. You need to manipulate it in such a way that
the mind is busy with something that's beneficial. That gets him
thinking. Right.
And then the commentators continue and they focus on the same word
from the spiritual aspect. And they quote the likes of Imam Al
Ghazali Rahim Allah Allah women because Allah says that what ever
in this through the eyes and ears are channels to the heart, and
whatever images reaches the heart
that pollutes the heart, it's almost impossible to eradicate
after that. This is the words of a man of his early that didn't see
the internet that we have today. Right? So from a spiritual aspect,
basically they say ensure that whatever interests the child to
his heart, through his eyes through his ears are not things
that are going to pollute his heart
because it's impossible or close to impossible to eradicate it once
again. The beautiful point that Mr. Moran Lee mentioned here is
what he says keep the child's mind to heart busy with those things
that are beneficial and couldn't be my huge boon axial Adobe,
because it's going it's going to affect his credit it's character
later on. If what's interesting is pollution. If he's busy with every
random thing, statistically videos
for four or five hours straight what do we expect of the child?
What do we expect him to make of his life there after
right so if what's interesting is pure.
And the development of his intern intellect is consistent and
directed. You can expect good character but if the other the
opposite is true, then expect you gonna tell me that you will have
very little etiquette
and you won't necessarily be able to make anything of himself.
My mom Rahmanir Rahim Allah Allah continues. You know, we've
mentioned the list a list of scholars, the likes of Imam Suki,
so I wish to perhaps just she mistook his relationship with his
father. Before we continue with the words of Imam Bromley in his
poetry. He was a mama
tsuchiura mulata Allah says his father
would send them to Imam and Mizzi Muhammad mmm Mizzi was one of the
great Madison one of the time and scholars of religion. And he sent
him to him as a hobby at the same time was also a scholar of Hadith
and a leading scholar in the science of religion. One day, Mama
Sookie the sun the sun is superior the father Sookie the sun is tell
you, Dina Sookie the father is the period in SOP, the son would go to
a museum and he's relating this in his autobiography. He says when he
came home when he comes home, his father asked him, What did you
learn from him? Is it today? You couldn't fully saw the pod in
tattooed. tattooed in a suitcase was one of the leading scholars of
his time, the chief judge, and I'd say Father, you couldn't. So you
would ask your son origin and buy music today. And then you would go
to a mother happy the next day and we'll come back. What did you
learn by my, my mother hubby today?
Which beautifully demonstrates to us gives us insight that his
father was very up to date to this education.
Right? Not just he's going classes some way.
I'll see the report the end of the year. Every day when Mr. Mizuki
returned from from class. His father asked him What did you
learn today and challenge him on his understanding.
Then remember, Sookie says his father never allowed us to sleep
the last third of the night. His father would wake me up as a young
child and say even if you're going to play, you're not going to sleep
this last portion of the night. Because I don't want it to become
a habit of yours that you can wake up at this time. This hour will be
for 5g This hour and a half before Fajr mama so please wait himself.
A father would never allow us to sleep the last third of the night.
He would wake us up in many siblings and save even if you're
going to play around but you're not going to sleep this out. A
father that was involved in his child's education and not only
education, but his spiritual upbringing as well.
In our suitcases, when he would come back from him as a hobby we
will go to my mother who was very he was very happy with my mother
happy was a very approachable person you came from my mom Mizzy
wasn't too happy because for me she was an unapproachable person
very stern person and for the child at that time, you know, we
just gives us insight to that they were normal human beings like you
and I
remember Romney Muhammad Allah Allah continues and he says
off the focusing on the heart and the mind of the child he says via
the field be here and could Anil Joe Holly what could be handled
fiscally what Burley woman or this bill could be well here in Baku
lumen Lai settler who Amana protect your child from every
sinner? Ignorant, treacherous liar, any individual who has these
characteristics, not let your child spend time with him? For in
our Salah bill
have the sabe
and sorbitol Ashari
he says the secret and the cinema of Azalia Ron Allah Allah mentions
as well. This is the secret to the upbringing of your child. He says
the secret of the saints
of their upbringing and how they
see to the nurturing of the children is what have the sabe and
Sofitel luxury they never allow the children to spend time in
people who are involved in sin. Straight up Let's call a spade a
spade. Right anyone was involved in fiscal involved in was was
involved in lying to the cheaters whatever the quality may be, never
allow your child to spin time in those people's company.
Why is it the ba ba our nature we steal from one another you rub off
on me and rub off on you from you
will soon and universally be inevitable model II
Khalili
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he quotes the prophets of
salaam who said that your character is that of your
companion?
Your character is that of of your companion. If you allow the child
in company that's not beneficial. What do we expect?
We're going to pour
false in the glass and expect not to come out. Right? So the second
advice of Mr. Muhammad Rahim Allah Tala is what protects the children
from company that's not beneficial.
He continues and this is you and I, as the parents and he says, oh
you father. Oh your mother
who has not yet
read himself of bad habits and sin
At the very least, he pleads to us at the very least, do not commit
those sins in front of your children.
At the very least, if you cannot read yourself completely from sin,
irrespective what it might be, at the very least, do not commit the
sins in front of your children. Your child needs to see you as the
Father and as the mother in the best light as possible. You don't
have to be the most knowledgeable person, we don't have to be the
most strongest person, we don't have to be the most wealthiest
person, but my son needs to see me as an upright person.
So no matter what this means is that I struggled to hurt myself or
what no matter what the bad habit is that I struggled to read myself
or,
at the very least in my marami Rahimullah analysis, do not commit
to sins in front of your children.
So after the intellect, and the heart, often ensuring that he has
good company, after ensuring that you only display good character
to your child.
He leaves one loss advice. And that's what that's
ultimately everything that we implement. Everything that we wish
to steer the child in a certain direction, will only come into
fruition through the will of Allah subhanaw taala one of the chef
Morabito Hajj, Muhammad, Allah Tala is quoted to have said that
when they asked about the upbringing of his son, who's also
a great scholar, he said that he's tarbiyah of his child was Doha
rubber. He's telling me, his child was a DA.
So after we have
stressed and exhausted ourselves in ensuring that the child gains
the good in education, the good companionship and did you display
good character. Last, but not least, you need to make dua for
the for the for the child, the average for our children needs to
take preference over do anything else or anyone else.
And if Allah subhanaw taala sees our sincere efforts
and when we are consistent in our efforts and consistent in our
eyes, certainly Allah subhanaw taala will except my mother was
early is in Mama was early because Allah subhanaw taala chose him to
hurry, hurry because Allah Subhana Allah chose him to be Muhammad
Buhari. The times are different, the challenges are more the
distractions are more but the same Allah subhanaw taala exists, we
need to experience have very high aspirations and ensure that our
children are in good company receiving a good education and
Insha Allah, the need of the time, the challenge of the time could be
seen to and solved with the next generation of our children
Bismillah in terracotta Allah we had an uncluttered interactive
view through that one and in hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen Subhan
