Ease after Difficulty…

Ease after Difficulty…

Sep 21, 2015 | Allah

If you’re ever trying to teach your children the wisdom behind the difficult times that Allah puts us through, this past week has so much to offer…

I tend not to share political posts here, but these seem to be so appropriate in sharing with our children that there is always a bigger picture out there, and when Allah says that there will be ease after difficulty, He means it!

Take for example, the story and picture you must have seen by now of the refugee carrying his son who was kicked down by the camera woman. His story was spotlighted because of that and it became known that he was a soccer coach, and has since been asked to coach a team in Spain, and his son not only met Ronaldo but accompanied him into a game!

Then there’s the story of Ahmed, who built a clock and got ARRESTED at 14. And yet, the world now knows and admires him and he has offers to the best universities and companies, inlcuding google, MIT, etc. Not only that, but his father buying pizza for the media camped outside made news as well 🙂

Dig a little deeper and there are such stories behind many, many of the sad ones that we see. Surely He does know best!

 

Baligha Series – Idea 12: Wisdom Necklace

Baligha Series – Idea 12: Wisdom Necklace

Jun 16, 2014 | Buloogh

I loved, loved, loved this idea!

So with buloogh parties, the girls celebrated with friends, but what about marking the moment with the loving women in our child’s life?

A friend was telling me how they marked a girl’s ‘coming of age’ by gathering all the important women in the girl’s life, such as the grandmothers, aunts and other close women. Prior to this, the girl was asked to think of questions she would like to ask (could be on anything she wanted to know), and she thought of a number of questions, and who she would like to answer what question.

On the day, each lady went into a room with the young girl and answered the question she had been given. At the end of each question, the girl got a bead to put together as a necklace of beads (or ‘pearls of wisdom’ :)), and the lady too got a bead as a reminder of this day and moment.

Needless to say, the beads are a treasured reminder of all the advice given to the young girl, both for her and the ladies involved!
