_*The Flour*_
Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu
Have you pondered about flour and it's multiple uses..
Let me not even talk of its varying source Shebi flour na flour..
😊😊😊😊
Now on a serious note..
Let's be flour specific..
I wish I could have a botanical name for it for easy recognition.. OK, forgive me for a general classification..
*"White flour"*
Is it not the same flour that is used in making "Cin cin", that they use for "egg roll", "meatpie", "doughnut", "bread", "pastry", "spaghetti", "macaroni", "samosa", "shawarma", "waina", "amala"... Etc. The list goes on..
One thing, yet when subjected to different temperature, mixing technique, ingredients, mastering/cookery skills etc. It becomes a new thing..
Attracting different people.. For example, some appreciate bread but don't do good with cupcake. You may love spaghetti and not a fan of macaroni..etc
SubhanaAllah..
This is not a cookery class.. I just want to use it to make a point..
Like flours.. So are children..
Children are all humans yet will grow to have different behaviours, character, moral values etc
This depends on you as a parent and the environment they are exposed to..
We worry about those to come forgetting that it's what we make of them that becomes of them..
It's more of who we are than who they are..
As the nabiyy salallahu alaihi wa salaam was reported to have said..
...that Allah said, _*"I created my servants in the right religion but devils made them go astray".*_
_*The Prophet (PBUH) was also reported to have said, "Each child is born in a state of "Fitrah", then his parents make him a Jew, Christian or a Zoroastrian, the way an animal gives birth to a normal offspring. Have you noticed any that were born mutilated?"*_
_*(Collected by Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim).*_
Our children's behavior is simply a mirror of us, or and our immediate society..
Like a flour, you can't have a "Cincin" mixture, fry a "cincin" way and get a "meatpie" or "gurasa"..
Watch your child upbringing skill and pay serious attention to the deen.
May Allah subhanahu wa taala grant us all understanding.. Aameen Aameen Aameen

*"My busy Schedules..."*
Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu..
Isn't it amazing how we could be so busy in life that we couldn't even realize the good things we miss...???
I am this at work.. I am that.. No one can do it, if not me.. I have to be there.. My boss needs me.. I have to fulfil those task..
We get so busy drunk that.. We miss out on those that matter..
Our Family, friends loved ones...
We in fact miss out on making ourselves better..
We don't upgrade ourselves, our knowledge and our deen..
We just get crazy about some other jobs...
Let it get into your subconscious that only Allah is irreplaceable..
As for you and I.. If our place of work gets someone better.. We are off..
If we die, the life goes on.. In fact your boss won't shut down..
Don't break down.. Relax..
Have time for yourself..
Seek knowledge..
Learn your deen..
Spend valuable time with your family..
Your good friends miss you..
Your loved ones could be passing through pain and may get better with you around..
And most importantly.. Your busy schedules are not helping in upbringing your children the best way..
Reflect before it is too late..
Never be too busy to connect with those and things that matters.. Life is too short..
It's all about priorities.. You can still be diligent, hardworking and effectively give result at work.. Yet, your family won't suffer..
