Four Topics
Status of our kids Our Environment The solution: Qurán & Hadith Your role as a TEACHER
![Page 7: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Our Kids
Don’t like our language – they want to speak English
Don’t like our dress – they want to dress western style
Don’t like our culture Don’t like our countries – of course because of
our backwardness but also because they are so much impressed by the west
Don’t like to mix with elders - lack of communication as well as lack of respect for elders of the community
![Page 8: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Our Kids
Have lack of confidence (because they don’t have enough information) in their own Deen – Al-Islam.
Live physically here but mentally in the west Do not see any future role in their own
community Would love to disappear in some western
city, if given a chance Most probably the vision they have is: Get
money and enjoy life when they grow up.
![Page 9: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
When they grow up, they!!! DON’T KNOW THE QURÁN (PERHAPS
NOT EVEN 2% OF IT). Have almost no exposure to Hadith Consequently, have no self-esteem as
a Muslim.
![Page 10: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Environment – 1. At Schools Under peer pressure, they may do
wrong things Smoking; CDs; ..
![Page 11: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Environment – 2. At Home Over-exposure to harmful TV watching,
Computer games, and now the internet Standard Complaint: They are bored Their topics of conversation – Latest
Electronic games They don’t like school homework, They don’t like to help parents in
household chores Looking always for an easy wayout

Environment – 2. At Home We had some connection with Deen at
our home, however faint. But now the situation is reverse. Grandmother vs. grand-daughter
![Page 13: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Media
Very hostile towards Islam and Muslims Challenges are going to perhaps worsen Well-trained experts / orientalists etc. are
systematically bombarding the Muslim society.
They are MIS-QUOTING Quranic verses and ahadeeth left and right
Unless our children is equipped with Qurán and Hadith, it is impossible for them to walk with dignity.

Environment – In general Highly corrupting
![Page 15: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Qurán
A book of Guidance – And that is the status we have not given to it
Human Being – surrounded by enemies and self-weaknesses
Daily Exposure – Thru Recitation in Salahs / and in homes
How – Always reminds him as to who he is, where he is, what is his role, his destination – Thru Promises, Threats, Examples, Stories, …

By Teaching Qurán
You will open up this gate of daily tarbiyah
You will establish connection between the student and Allah directly and for the rest of his life. This Book will not change. A Permanent Solution.
Yes, not all Arabs are good… But the guidance depends on Inabah, in addition to the knowledge. InshaAllah, many will benefit from it.
![Page 20: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Qurán
Solutions to all problems is in Qurán and Sunnah
Just establish direct connection between them and Allah thru Allah’s book and they can walk with dignity
But the most critical challenge is – they don’t know Qurán
Give them the master key and they will open all the doors
![Page 21: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Why don't the Students understand the Qur'an (In general) they learn Arabic to pass
exams (my case of Telugu) Not motivated to go beyond … because
they do not realize the value and importance of understanding Qur'an. In fact, they DO NOT know what Qurán is!
Most importantly: Nobody told them that understanding Quran could be so simple.
![Page 22: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Your Role as a Teacher of Qurán and Hadith To show them the path to Paradise. To show the way to success not only in
this world but for the ever-lasting life of the hereafter
the representative of Prophetic guidance and knowledge.
The Prophet (pbuh): I am sent as a teacher.
![Page 23: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Your Role as a Teacher of Qurán and Hadith
How close you fit to this definition. How lucky you are!!! What a unique opportunity has Allah placed at your disposal.
Excellent choice at your disposal - shape the generation
We know that you have been doing hardwork. But let us take the MOST important jump here and that is: To get the students connected with Qurán directly.
![Page 24: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Opportunities
Students will always remember you Among the best category of people on
earth in the sight of Allah, “The best among you are those who learns Qurán and teaches it.”
Parents will be very grateful to you
![Page 25: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Opportunities
In this time of information explosion, what a disaster it will be, if we, the inheritors of this Book, miss this excellent opportunity to pass on the real book of Information, the book of guidance, not only for this World but for hereafter.
There are "misinformation storms" running around this world; strong winds of opposition to our faith, our culture, and our existence as true Muslims.
![Page 26: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Opportunities
Let us make struggle with this Book. Here is the real weapon, the weapon of the ultimate knowledge.
And if we don’t do that!!!! May be we may be severely questioned by Allah for neglecting this EXTREMELY IMPORTANT DUTY.
They will know everything except the Book which changed the course of humanity and the history of the world.
![Page 27: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
A Historical Opportunity A source of thawab-e-jariyah – where
the light may spread to hundreds perhaps thousands
Almost equally important role or perhaps more than a Masjid’s Imam or an Islamic Scholar – because you will teach them the Book of Allah.
A model for other schools to follow
![Page 28: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Opportunities
Once truly attached with the Book, they will graduate with a strong trust in Allah, with self-esteem, with dignity, and with a commitment to change not only themselves but their society.
Yes, there may be some weak students; but even if we succeed 60%, it is still first class! Or even if they learn 60% of the Book, it is still "First class".
If we plan for 100%, then we will reach at least 60%.
![Page 29: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Difficult to understand? Confusing? Do not underestimate their intellect.
They are very sharp and pure. When you teach them the pure book of
true nature (fitrah), their intellect will surely grow extensively.

What Course are we talking about! Just to help them understand the basic
message of Qur'an Not for making experts or scholars of
Qur'an.
![Page 31: In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful Islamic Education for Children - Importance, Challenges & Solutions](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649da15503460f94a8da28/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
An Easy Starter Course

Qur'an !!! Almost 1000 words of Qurán per day!
