16 Benefits of Honey

Posted by iqra on Aug 8, 2011 in Community Archive, Family Fun | 0 comments

Honey has been used as a remedy for ailments since the time of our beloved Prophet (s). Both the holy Qur’an and Hadith refer to honey as a healer of disease.

‘And thy Lord taught the bee to build its cells in hills, on trees and in (men’s) habitations…..

there issues from within their bodies a drink of varying colors, wherein is healing for mankind.

Verily in this is a Sign for those who give thought’.
(Translation of Quran 16:68-69)

Ramadan Appreciation for Kids

Educate your children on the importance of Ramadan.

Help your little ones build a love and appreciation for the most special time of year for Muslims. Ramadan is more than just a month of fasting. It is an amount of time gifted from Allah (swt) to help our Ummah increase their spirituality and love for our supreme Creator. Ramadan is a time for giving, sharing, and helping others. It is a month that evokes love, peace, and community. Ramadan is a special time where friends, families, and neighbors come together to rejoice in the many blessings placed upon us.

Ramadan Family Fun

Here are some fun ways to create excitement for your kids

by working together on Ramadan activities.

Ramadan Cookies: Bake Ramadan cookies with your kids using a sugar cookie recipe. Use either a crescent cookie cutter or make a crescent shape by rolling the dough into small circles and cut each circle in half using only half of a circle cookie cutter. Decorate the cookies with frosting and sprinkles, then package in boxes with fancy ribbon. These make great Ramadan gifts for friends, family, teachers, and neighbors. (also try decorating cakes and cupcakes)
