A household with multiple kids can lead to a hair-pulling situation during the month of Ramadan. Before the holy month descends, discuss and answer their queries:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sit with them, explore the time zone in your city and country, and find out the timings for suhoor<\/em> and iftar<\/em>. Answer their questions to the best of your ability and repeat if you have to. It won’t be easy, but with patience comes the ability to face challenges and overcome them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ease your children into healthy conversations about Ramadan. Share sunnah<\/em> practices that help them understand specific actions that might be out of the ordinary around the year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_cta][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/connect.muslimpro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Untitled-design-1.png” alt=”Ramadan food spread, suhoor, iftar, preparing for Ramadan” title_text=”Untitled design (1)” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_cta button_url=”#TOP” _builder_version=”4.16″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_font_size=”44px” header_line_height=”1.5em” body_font=”Noto Sans||||||||” body_font_size=”17px” use_background_color=”off” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”17px” button_text_color=”#ffffff” button_bg_color=”#ff6b5a” button_border_width=”5px” button_border_color=”#ff6b5a” button_border_radius=”100px” button_font=”Noto Sans|700||on|||||” button_use_icon=”off” text_orientation=”left” background_layout=”light” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”11px|||||” header_font_size_tablet=”” header_font_size_phone=”34px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” button_text_color_hover=”#ffffff” button_border_color_hover=”#ff9e59″ button_bg_color_hover=”#ff9e59″ global_colors_info=”{}” button_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_text_color__hover_enabled=”on” button_text_color__hover=”#ffffff” button_one_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_color__hover_enabled=”on” button_border_color__hover=”#ff9e59″ button_one_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”on” button_bg_color__hover=”#ff9e59″ button_one_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Praying 5 times a day, reciting the Quran, praying taraweeh<\/em>, and more… In what ways can you help your child increase their ibadah<\/em> during Ramadan?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fasting during the holy month of Ramadan tests our stamina and willpower too.
