Islamic Pre Marriage and Parenting Course in MSD London

26 & 27 April 2008 - It is actually in my schedule to conduct this course once a year in MSD. The rest of the similar courses were conducted based on the invitations received from various Malaysian students and professionals societies in UK and Ireland. This two days course went well, and whenever this type of opportunity knocks on the door, the satisfaction came by having such good presentation and great discussion with the participants, Malaysian and British as well, on what exactly does it mean by becoming a husband, wife and parent. Apart from having ourselves understand the true meaning of marriage, being a husband and responsibility of a wife, parenting for example, is a huge topic and really important for any muslim couple to explore. Children are a source of great joy and delight, they make life sweet, bring more rizq into a family’s life and give hope.A father sees his children as a future source of help and support, as well as representing an increase in numbers and perpetuating of the family.A mother sees her children as a source of hope , consolation and joy in life and as hope for the future. All of these hopes rest on the good upbringing of the children and giving them sound preparation for life , so that they will become active and constructive elements in society , a source of goodness for their parents, community and society as a whole.If their education and upbringing are neglected , they will become bad character, a burden on their family , community and society as a whole.Islam has placed a burden of responsibility on the shoulders of all people , from which none may be excused. Above all, parents are responsible for providing their children with a sound Islamic education and upbringing based on the noble characteristic .

The true muslim parent understands the psychology of children and knows how to deal with them, using the best and most effective methods of parenting and upbringing.He endears himself to them in all kinds of ways and get close to them, according to their age and mental levels, so he plays with them , praises them, jokes with them and tells them words of love and care which make them happy. Then try will love him , and accept his direction eagerly. When they obey him, it will be from the heart , for there is a great difference between obedience which is based on love , respect and trust and that which is based on violence and cruelty . This is when the love in the marriage institution will be tested and proven. In general, we're blinded by love, and our eyes are open when married.
