Tarbiyah al-Awlad!
just came across another link on Early Upbringing of Children. ^-^
i like this part:
"He (the child) should be taught that inferiority is in taking and that superiority and dignity is in giving"
and a story:
Sahl Ibn Abdullah once said, “I was a child of three years, and I would stay awake at night looking at my uncle, Muhammed bin Sawwaar, praying. So he said to me one day, “why don’t you remember Allah, the one who created you?”

So I asked, “and how do I remember Him?”

He replied, “Say, three times in your heart without moving your tongue: Allah is with me, Allah is watching over me, Allah is a witness over me. (i love the Arabic version!!!)

I then said this a number of nights until I became accustomed to this. He then said to me, “say it eleven times every night.”
So I said it, and I felt the sweetness of this statement in my heart.

A year on from this, my uncle said to me “Memorise and safeguard what I have taught you, and act according to it up until you enter your grave”.

So I continued acting upon these words for years and I would find the sweetness of it in my privacy.
He then said, “O Sahl, whomsoever Allah is with, and He watches him and is a witness over him – do you think such a person should disobey Allah? Beware of disobeying Allah."

After this, I advanced to school and memorised the Qur’aan when I was only six or seven years old. I would then fast all the time, my daily sustenance was bread made from barley and thereafter I would wake during the night in order to pray.

...
found another link on Luqman's advice to his son (!).
ya Rabb... Please grant me the chance to tarbiyah my own children.... :')
...
speaking of children, my 5 year-old niece, Huda made an unexpected statement yesterday, while we were at the dining table:
"nanti bila cik Ija kawen Cik ada boyfriend! eeii!! no shame!" *chuckles*
me: "eh? kalau Cik Ija da kawen, cik Ija ada suami, bukan boyfriend. ape je. tak shameful! ada boyfriend yang no shame!"

tsk. budak2ni~
haiz. anyway, that Huda is pretty good at teasing people. and when it comes to teasing me about such topics, i can feel myself blushing and menggelabah sikit. tsk. padahal budak kecik je kacau. huhu...
...
btw, I truly love the "It's Sunnah" at Facebook. personally, I find most of its posts very meaningful, creative, and help me to reflect. very good reminders. alhamdulillah...
(this is an excerpt from the sayings of the famous Syeikh al-'Uraifi)

· مَنّ رۈآئع الشَيخْ ﭑﻟﻋرﯾ̃في :
يَقُوْلْ:
كَثِيــرَآٺٌ اللاتي يؤمن ﭑنَ الحجآب ليس بفرض...
...ۈ ﻟگن ﻟوَ نلاحظ ۈ نتأمل قليلاً نجد ﭑنَ :الگوُڽ كله يتحجب
ۈ الكرة الأرضية عَليْہآ غلاف. .
ۈ الثمآر الندية عَليْہآ حجآب.
.ۈ السيف يحفظ داخل غمدھ. .
ۈالقلم بدۆڽ غطاء يجف حبره. .
ۈ تنعدم فآئدتہَ ۈ يلقى ﺗﺣ͠تَ الأقدام لأنه فقد الغطاء
تُرَى لماذا تغلف بنآتنا ؟؟
ﺂلآ لحمايتهآ
ۈالمرأة زهرة ﺟﻣﯾﯾلَة ﭑلگل يشتهيے ﭑنَ يقطفهآڤـ لابد ﭑنَ نحميهآ بَـ الحجاب
ۈ التفاحة ﻟوَ نزعت قشرتهآ ۈ تركتهآ فسدت
ۈ الموز ﻟوَ نزعت قشرھ إنقلب أﺳ̶ۆد¦
سُبحّآن اللّہ اﻟعَظِيمُ
اللَهُمَ اهدِيْ بَنَاتَ المُسلمين ~[♥]
