A Woman, as a Lovely Flower at Home

A Woman, as a Lovely Flower at Home

In the Holy Qur’an, we read that wives are to be sources of tranquility for men and that Allah places affection and mercy between married couples - husband and wife. “Among His signs is [the fact] that He has created spouses for you from among yourselves so that you may console yourselves with them. He    has planted affection and mercy between you; in that are signs for people who think things over.”  The Holy Qur’an 30: 21

Healthy Living

Healthy Living

A balanced diet is a cornerstone of health. Women, like men, should enjoy a variety of healthful foods from all of the foods groups, including whole grains, fruits, vegetables, healthy fats, low-fat or fat-free dairy and lean protein.

Freedom of Thought in the Holy Qur’an

Freedom of Thought in the Holy Qur’an

Thinking is one of the most important high faculties in human beings, which requires a proper social ground for its growth and development. Modern man considers social liberties as one of his aspirations and goals and continually attempts to achieve and preserve these and other kinds of liberties. Freedom of thought implies a number of things among which we can mention the following: preparing the ground, information and the means for facilitating free thinking, as well as removing the obstacles of thinking. In the Islamic culture, there are several narrations from the Prophet (PBUH) and Imams (AS) that praise thinking. For instance, we have it in our traditions that one hour’s thinking is superior to seventy years spent praying. In this essay, we will discuss this concept in order to clarify whether Islam accepts or rejects freedom of thought. 

How to Help Your Child with Negative Thinking

How to Help Your Child with Negative Thinking

School is one of the most potent influences upon the social and emotional development of our children. Peer pressures, teacher evaluations, academic challenges, and a host of other forces await our kids every day. These forces shape children's evolving repertoire of life skills in a variety of ways. Sometimes the impact is favorable; for example, warm and healthy friendships can spur the continued growth of empathy, perspective-taking, and mutuality. On the other hand, the potential negative impact of teacher criticism or peer rejection can threaten academic motivation and self-acceptance. While it is reasonable for parents to try to shield youngsters from the negative influences of school, teachers, and guidance counselors are in the best position to do so.

Renewal of Hopes

Renewal of Hopes

Springtime is certainly a time of renewal of hopes and revival of the manifestations of life. With the flowers out, the smiling sunshine and refreshing breeze, each of us can feel lively enough to plan for a new year, a better year in fact, both in terms of worldly matters and spiritual ones. As we all know, today's world is witnessing lots of maladies, plights and human sufferings which may darken the horizon of hope for some. But, for those who truly believe in God and in His Messengers (AS), there is endless hope, since they know God – The Most Gracious has presented the best directions and solutions in His last Book – the Holy Qur’an and so they see guidance in that Divine treasure as Imam Ali (AS) has advised his followers, “Solve your problems with the help of the Holy Qur’an.”
