How to Teach conceptual Emaaniyaat to kids!

Here is an example from my four-year-old's scrapbook. she likes doing some scrapping so I thought to use this interest to inculcate some conceptual ideology into her. 

Do you know children learn better and retain information longer if we teach them through visuals and through images? 

she is not good at rot learning. when I try rot learning with kids, I notice that learning becomes burdensome and hectic for both kids and me. instead using visual aids boost their interest as well as their memory retention. 

Since we are not homeschoolers from our own childhood, we tend to keep sliding into trying our learning to match. our old school model, but I'm happy, at least we are trying. 

I intend to follow this approach in the future. Inshallah...

Homeschooler's science fair 2021

Karachi homeschoolers arranged a science fair of its own kind every year. But since COVID-19 hit it was all halted. Today on 6 November I got to attend the fair. It was enormously beautiful in the sense that each child's individuality was enhanced through their science masterpiece. Every child was confident and patient enough to explain it to others. The environment was lively. There was a catapult, digestive system, the evolution of writing, therapeutic herbs, volcano eruption, mirror games, circuits, and a few others that I couldn't catch because I arrived late. Congratulations Homeschoolers!!!

دنیا جنت نہیں بن سکتی۔۔

اگر میں آپ سے یہ کہوں کہ یہ زندگی ایک امتحان مسلسل ہے تو آپ کو اس جملے سے کوئی فرق نہیں پڑنے والا۔ کیونکہ زندگی میں آپ یہ جملہ اتنا زیادہ سن چکے ہوتے ہیں کہ اسکی گہرائی اور افادیت سے بے حس ہو جاتے ہیں۔   مگر ایک خاص چیز کی طرف آپ کی توجہ دلانا چاہوں گی کہ سورہ عنکبوت میں اللہ فرماتے ہیں کیا لوگ یہ سمجھتے ہیں کہ وہ صرف اتنا کہنے پر چھوڑ دئے جائیں گے کہ " ہم ایمان لائے اور انکی آزمائش نہیں ہوگی" ؟   اس سورہ کا زندگی کے ایک مسلسل امتحان ہونے سے کیا تعلق ہے؟   یہ سورہ شروع ہوتی ہے " الم" سے جسکے بارے میں ہم یہ جانتے ہیں کہ اس کہ معنی اللہ کہ سوا کوئی نہیں جانتا اور اللہ تعالی نے قصداً انسانوں سے اسکے معنی پوشیدہ کھے ہیں۔   اس لفظ "الم" سے ہمیں دو نقطوں کی طرف اشارہ ملتا ہے ایک یہ کہ دنیا میں ہمارے ساتھ ہونے والی ہر چیز کی منطق ، معنی اور گہرائی کا ہمیں علم ہونا ضروری نہیں ہے۔۔۔ اور دوسرا یہ   اس کہ معنی کو جاننا ہماری موجودہ زندگی کو گزارنے کہ مقصد میں مدد نہیں دیتا۔   اس لئے ہمیں ہر چیز کی مصلحت میں گھسنا نہیں چاہئے، اللہ نے جو جیسے دیا ہے اسے قبو...
