A Mother's Rare Upbringing

A Quran teacher narrates a highly instructive incident:

That a child came to me who was very eager to get admission in the Madrasa.

I asked him: Child! Do you remember any part of the Quran by heart? The child said: Yes.

I tested him and said: Then recite the 30th Para to me.

He recited the 30th Para to me by heart.

I asked: Do you also remember Surah Al-Mulk?

He recited Surah Al-Mulk to me as well.

I was very surprised that this young child had memorized a part of the Holy Quran despite his young age.

I asked him to recite Surah An-Nahl, and he remembered that too.

The more he answered my questions, the more my surprise grew.

I thought I should ask him about the bigger Surahs now. I said: Do you also remember Surah Al-Baqarah?

He answered in the affirmative and recited Surah Al-Baqarah by heart without any mistakes.

I asked in amazement: Child! It seems you have memorized the entire Quran?

He said: Yes. As soon as I heard this, the words Subhan Allah, MashaAllah, Tabarak Allah spontaneously started coming out of my mouth with joy.

I said to him: Come to my office tomorrow and bring your guardian with you.

After the child left, I remained immersed in a sea of ​​wonder and amazement, and I kept thinking to myself that surely his father must be a follower of religion, of good character, and have a deep love for the Quran, as a result of which he had his child memorize the Quran at such a young age.

I was severely shocked when he brought his father the next morning, because his father did not look like a follower of the Sunnah and Sharia at all in his outward appearance.

The child's father sensed my anxiety and amazement and immediately said: I know that you are surprised and stunned because I am the father of this child. I will end your surprise now. The truth is that behind this child's memorization of the Quran is the hand of his mother, who is equal to a thousand men in terms of raising children.

You will be even more surprised to hear that I have three sons and all of them are Hafiz of the Quran.

My youngest daughter is four years old and she has also memorized the 30th Para.

My surprise had reached its peak. I asked: How is this possible!! How did a four-year-old girl memorize the 30th Para?!

He replied: The mother of the children's method is that when the child starts speaking, she starts teaching him the Quran and instilling in him the desire to memorize the Quran.

She makes the children compete and says that whoever memorizes this Surah first, the dinner will be made according to their choice.

Whoever memorizes the Para first, we will go to their favorite place on the weekend.

Whoever finishes the Quran first, we will spend the annual holidays in the area of ​​their choice.

Thus, children participate enthusiastically in memorizing the Quran to fulfill their desires.

Yes, such virtuous mothers adorn the home.

Remember! A virtuous and righteous woman is not half of society, but rather the foundation and pillar of society.
