i usually spend my time waiting for my brother after his training reading a book.
*guys love to make you wait! but am not gonna let them get me...hehe, just kidding...i was trying to spice up and suddenly it becomes ironic...uh? (err...you can skip this part...haha)
and my other free time is usually spent going through the facebook...hehe,
(don't we all do nowadays? erk!)
this is a text from a book am currently reading:
Al-Bukhari and Muslim narrated from Anas رضي الله عنه that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said,
Abu Ya'la narrates from Anas رضي الله عنه that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said,
Educators should stress these values in the minds of children and actually take them in his company while visiting his relatives, and thus the children begin to like them. The child will acknowledge their favour, and will share with them their joys and sorrows and help them in case of suffering and poverty. This in truth is the height of beneficence.
from English translation of Child Education in Islam by 'Abdullah Nasih 'Ulwan
(The Responsibility of Social Education, The Rights of Kindred by Blood)
*Kindred by Blood are those who are related by kinship or lineage.
like fathers, mothers, grandfathers, grandmothers, brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, cousins...our BIG FAMILY in short :D
(highlighted yellow)
i deduced, the author suggest that we take kids along while visiting relatives so that they get accustomed to them and grow in love with our big family.
in this era 'where-every-few-seconds-we-get-edgy' if we are not on facebook (hehe)
why not use facebook at our advantage...?
trace back our 'Big Family' on facebook,
have them on our friends list,
quiz our brothers and sisters on who knows more of the family members,
always keep in touch with them,
most of us already did this,
coz i did saw a few friends who put up photos of their family gatherings up to 6 or more generations, that they had to put on coloured name tags on...hehe
makes me feel jealous...
because from the 'Hadith' of our beloved Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم above, Allah will give them,

"A person who is keen to be blessed in his sustenance and have a along life should keep ties with his kinsfolk."
"Verily through donation and keeping the ties of kinsfolk, Allah may confer a long life safe from evil and death, together with blessings with many benefits such as expiation of faults, forgiving sins, and entering paradise."

- blessing in their sustenance (rezeki)
- a long life
- that is safe from evil ad death
- expiation of faults
- forgiving of sins
- paradise
they are very easy to obtain especially nowadays that we can get it from the tips of our fingers...right?
and may we get our beloved Prophet's attention in the day of judgement for practicing his teachings.
the book maybe a guidance on how to educate a child,
but i do feel like it is educating me (maybe cause am still a child...hehe) :p
just a thought i'd like to share, especially for myself and for everyone reading <3
happy blessed friday!
let's practice the sunnah of our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him, his family and sohabah)
and sollu ala habibina wa sayyidina Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasalam.
*what is good is from Allah, and what is bad is from myself...i really appreciate any corrections : )
