Often, parents ask me, like, what's the best

00:00:02 --> 00:00:03

way to teach

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

children Islam? It's not easy. There's

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

a great hadith from Imam Abu Majah who

00:00:09 --> 00:00:10

said, that the prophet

00:00:11 --> 00:00:13

said the best thing a father can leave

00:00:14 --> 00:00:16

his children is good character. The best way

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

to teach good character

00:00:18 --> 00:00:20

is to spend time. My friend That's why

00:00:20 --> 00:00:21

it's called

00:00:21 --> 00:00:23

the water didn't come out. Oh my gosh.

00:00:23 --> 00:00:24

Try again.

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

There's a example. Right? Let's see what happens.

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

Say Bismillah.

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

Oh, there it comes. Now it's coming out.

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

You said Bismillah.

00:00:34 --> 00:00:35

So the best way

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

is just to spend time with them and

00:00:37 --> 00:00:38

contextualize

00:00:39 --> 00:00:41

religion seamlessly in our lives, not to compartmentalize

00:00:42 --> 00:00:43

it. So they see us as being religious

00:00:43 --> 00:00:44

here,

00:00:44 --> 00:00:46

not religious here. Actually, what that does is

00:00:46 --> 00:00:47

confuse our children.

00:00:49 --> 00:00:49

Seamlessly

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

try to do it, we ask a lot

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

for tofia.

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

That leaves that that that the prophet talked

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

about. Of course, it applies to all family

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

members. We ask a lot to tofia.
