My 5 year old has become like a police officer, telling everyone what aspect of their behavior warrants a red card, LOL. Sometimes I reach for a card and she will look at the guilty party and tell them, "That was for ...." <br /><br />Most certainly it is resulting in far greater self-regulation and conscious effort to erase the bad deeds with good ones, mashaa'Allah!<br /><br />Ameen to your dua' and I pray you will all find success and Allah's Pleasure - ameen!Healing Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01434544812025924667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2852649203273943364.post-12115022871408194552011-04-23T12:00:31.581+03:002011-04-23T12:00:31.581+03:00As salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,

I went out to mop it and my girls asked to come out and help me. While they were sweeping up, my five year old said, "We will get barakah from Allah for doing this." She didn't mention a thing about getting a card in her pocket, and she clearly understands that the deeds are done to please Allah, mashaa'Allah.<br /><br />I will give the girls a card for helping clean the elevator, but it's good to know that they understand who they are trying to please - Allah.Healing Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01434544812025924667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2852649203273943364.post-78143241745951899682011-04-19T19:22:42.232+03:002011-04-19T19:22:42.232+03:00as salaamu aalaykum mai, would you be able to emai...as salaamu aalaykum mai, would you be able to email me?

Jazaaki Allahu khayran ...As salaamu alaykum Leyla,<br /><br />Jazaaki Allahu khayran for your input.<br /><br />The cards are a tangible representation that symbolizes an account. The children do not keep the cards, they are simply tallies of their good and bad deeds. As children do not have the ability to fully understand abstract concepts, this card/account system allows them to better understand the concept of having a list of good things and a list of bad. If I don't see them do khayr, then they don't come to tell me to get a card. It is when I notice something good, that I give a card. This helps them to understand what is good, as well as what their specific weaknesses are. If they find that the most cards they have are for not listening or speaking rudely, then they have something to focus on correcting. If they see that the only good cards they get are for completing their chores or schoolwork, they may look for other areas to improve or do good in. Inshaa'Allah, they will learn, through conscious thought and encouragement, good habits that will become a natural extension of themselves in time.<br /><br />It isn't about gaining the most cards; as all the children have been told, Aisha (radhi Allahu anha) said that the best thing to meet Allah with is few sins. It's about lessening the red cards and self-regulation.<br /><br />Just as Allah keeps a clear account of our good and bad deeds, these cards represent a tangible account of their good and bad deeds. Whereas their young minds cannot fully comprehend the book that will be given to them on the Day of Judgement, this is an attempt to draw a parallel between the two, which can be understood by the children.<br /><br />Barak Allahu FeekiHealing Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01434544812025924667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2852649203273943364.post-23884102514211083722011-04-18T21:36:26.783+03:002011-04-18T21:36:26.783+03:00I think that it is very important for children to ...I think that it is very important for children to also learn not to boast or expect recognition of all good deeds.<br />An act of charity is even more precious if kept secret.<br />If they learn to do things because of the instant reward they get( a card) in my view it's not teaching them properly.<br />They should try to please Allah ta'ala, not gain the most "cards".<br /><br />LeylaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2852649203273943364.post-51384076425683148522011-04-18T18:36:45.829+03:002011-04-18T18:36:45.829+03:00Assalamu alaykum.Fantastic idea,im definitely tryi...Assalamu alaykum.Fantastic idea,im definitely trying it!Bilqeeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15114258131664729709noreply@blogger.com
