  • the way I got involved, and involve others as well is by learning to play the symbols and triangle. I find it an excellent way of getting them involved in tasbeha one way or another. By telling them you will teach them how to play motivates them and…

  • To be honest I can relate. I teach Gr. 1 and 2. and i have children who run around the classroom and who tend to all of a sudden get hyper-active and try to impress the other children. And they would be disrepectful when praying. I personally didn't…

  • Yawning is caused by a lack of oxygen to the blood. So it is believed that you yawn because you are bored and tired which then gets you breathing slower and then you yawn. My suggestion would be try to pray when you are a bit more energized than b…

  • Torab...Let me firstly say your english is not to be ashamed of, you type well. Secondly, I am weak, and i am only suggesting. My suggestion is that you pray for your friend, that God may direct him to the right path, and my second suggestion is to…
