CONCERN: I have a 7 year old son who goes to a public school, but I’m looking to take him out due to the behaviour that he picks up from his non Muslim friends.

ADVICES: ▪️I recommend you put your trust in Allah and help your wife as much as you can to initate homeschooling for your children and make du'a. ▪️Take action swiftly before things get worse. Your son could pick up even more bad habits, like swearing on other than Allāh and so many other evil ideologies in school. ▪️Yes, you and your wife will have less free time, but that's a small sacrifice in comparison to saving your child's Deen. ▪️Both husband and wife can assess their strengths and each can be responsible for teaching whatever they're good at. For example: wife may be stronger in literacy and language so she can take on that side of things whereas husband may be stronger in scientific knowledge or numeracy and he can take on that side of things. And just dedicate a small portion consistently each day to that subject. So long as the child is learning you're fulfilling your duty. Short but consistent lessons can lead to mountains of knowledge bi'idhnillah. ▪️Send your wife the sisters homeschooling group link so she can get advice, tips and encouragement from other sisters who are already homeschooling their kids. Sister's group: https://t.me/Sistershomeschooling ▪️There are some good homeschooling support systems by way of co-operatives whereby mums get together and teach the children as a group. They rotate in the organising of lessons, work, resources etc. so the workload is shared. ▪️It's not as hard as you may think. Don't over complicate what home-schooling/home-educating has to look like. So many mums couldn’t see themselves homeschooling and by the grace of Allah they now are. ▪️Play lots, read lots, talk to them lots. Kids that age are like sponges and pick up so much just by these 3 things. ▪️There are also some great free online resources where qualified teachers give lessons and set work. This is great for parents who aren’t confident with teaching. May Allah make things easy and protect our children.
