Raising Children In The West

Raising and educating children is one of the duties required of parents. Allaah has enjoined that in the Qur'aan, and the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also enjoined that. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

"O you who believe! Ward off yourselves and your families against a Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones, over which are (appointed) angels stern (and) severe, who disobey not, (from executing) the Commands they receive from Allaah, but do that which they are commanded"
[Quran: al-Tahreem 66:6]

Imam al-Tabari said, commenting on this verse:

Here Allaah is saying: O you who believe in Allaah and His Messenger, "Ward off yourselves" teach one another that which will protect those who do it from the Fire and ward it off from them, if it is done in obedience to Allaah and they do it in obedience to Allaah. The phrase "and your families against a Fire" means, and teach your families to do acts of obedience to Allaah so that they may protect themselves from the Fire.

Tafseer al-Tabari, 18/165

Part of our duty is to bring them up from a young age to love Allaah and His Messenger and to love the teachings of Islam. We should tell them that Allaah has a Paradise and a Hell; that His Hell is hot and its fuel is men and stones. The following story contains an important lesson.

Ibn al-Jawzi said:

There was a king who had a lot of wealth, and he had a daughter and no other children. He loved her very much, and he used to let her enjoy all kinds of entertainment. This went on for a long time. Beside the king there lived a devoted worshipper, and whilst he was reciting one night, he raised his voice saying, "O you who believe! Ward off yourselves and your families against a Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones " [al-Tahreem 66:6 -- interpretation of the meaning]. The girl heard his recitation and said to her servants, "Stop!" But they did not stop. The worshipper started to repeat the verse, and the girl kept telling them to stop, but they did not stop. She put her hands to her collar and tore her garment, and they went to her father and told him the story. He went to her and said, "My dear, what happened to you tonight? What made you weep?" and he hugged her. She said, "I ask you by Allaah, O my father, to tell me, does have Allaah have a Fire the fuel of which is men and stones?" He said, "Yes." She asked him, "Why did you not tell me? By Allaah I will not eat any good food or sleep on any soft bed until I know whether my abode is in Paradise or Hell."

i feel so sorry for your people who have been war torn for years, but i feel sorry for all people who must go through this. war is bad and blood is bad when it is sheed over another man or woman, we should have freedom of religion everywere, and embrace our neighbors, and not have contemp against them, for there choice of god or religion, and color. the world is not a battle field but man and man alone makes it this way. we as men must change this, can we?

[shittybooo]

and because our governments tell us this, we the stupid people, must do as we are told, either we go to war, or start hatting i guess, but please realize the usa is not your enemy its the governments in the governments if you know hat i mean. even you must do as your laws say just as we do in our laws but no law can make me hate another human being i dont care what you are, muslim, islam, christain, or jew, black, or white, this is how america is, and not the way it seems,

[shittybooo]

i would like to ask you somthing if i may? i am raised christain and i understand there is a god and a hell and jesus who told 12 followers to write a book that is now called the bible. but you have a different book. how did this all come to be? and do you and your people really hate the christain? or just there stupid government? because its not the people in general who hate in america. its not the people who hate the muslim its the governments who tell us that the muslims are doing bad.

children in the west are in deed in trouble. they are taught to hate and are blinded by sin,. a sin is a sin. no sin is worst then another, god judges them all alike. repent and be sorrry for the sins and say forgive me and confess it unto god and all will be forgiven. the west is really messed up indeed the way the children dress and woman dress they might as well walk about naked. the tv we watch is full of garbadge and sex. and violence. the lord is coming soon to save those who believe.
