Suliyati Berori

parenting, motherhood

Fees: $90

For Ladies Only

For the longest time, the dream has been to share knowledge and information with fellow Muslim parents who are struggling to raise our children in the modern time. There are so many challenges facing us in this century that were not present during our parents' times, hence we need to modify the way we parent our children accordingly.

Imam Ali (AS) counsels:
“Do not force your own customs upon your children for they are in other times than yours.”

For this course, we are focusing on raising daughters to become strong and pious women of their time, just like Maryam AS and Fatimah RA were in their time. These two women are the chosen models for women, along with Queen Asiyah and Khadijah RA, so surely there must be lessons that we can draw from their upbringing and their beautiful characteristics. We want to draw inspiration from them and yet be able to modify the lessons that we learn to suit our modern life and the future lives of our daughters. The aim is to empower fellow Muslim parents with knowledge so that we can all make informed decisions about the way we raise our daughters to become the best women that they can be.

What This Course Will Cover:

The life and upbringing of Maryam AS
Her values and characteristics, and how we can emulate that in ourselves and our daughters
The life and upbringing of Fatimah RA
Her values and characteristics, and how we can emulate that in ourselves and our daughters
Challenges in the modern world facing women and how we can help our daughters overcome them
Format and Syllabus of Course:

This is a 4-week course that will enable you to follow the lessons without having to leave your home. You may listen to it on your way to work or just before you go to bed, and because the lessons are downloadable, you can listen to it again and again!

Every Monday starting from 17 Dec 2018, you will be sent 2 Audio lessons via email, which you can download. The written transcript will also be attached so that it is convenient for you to read as you listen. It is also helpful to make you reflect even after listening to the audio files.

Just like our Quran classes, students will be given a few questions to reflect on as homework (yes, we believe that homework is necessary to ensure that active learning takes place! :)) and then they will be discussed via a live session (students will be invited to a virtual live session) on the Sunday of the week, at 1030hrs Singapore time. You are encouraged to share your reflections with other fellow mothers.
