⚘️*A beautiful message for all Teacher's*⚘️
YOU WILL BE ACCOUNTABLE O PARENTS AND TEACHERS!

“O you who believe! Save yourselves and your families from the Hellfire.” [Sūrah al-Taḥrīm 66:6]

Mothers, fathers, teachers, and the society as a whole, will all be accountable in front of ALLAH سبحانه و تعالى about the tarbiyyah (education and upbringing) of this generation.

If its tarbiyah is good, then there will be happiness - both in this world and the Hereafter. If it is not, then there will be misery, and it will be a rope around your necks - since there occurs in the ḥadīth:
“Each of you is a shepherd, and each of you will be questioned about those who you are responsible for.” [1]

🪻But - O teachers - rejoice in the saying of the Prophet Muhammad (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), who said:
“By ALLAH! That ALLAH ta'ala guides through you even a single person, is better for you than the most precious of camels.” [2]

🪻And - O parents - rejoice in the authentic ḥadīth:
“When a person dies, his actions are terminated except for three; a recurring charity, or knowledge that he leaves which is benefited from, or a pious offspring who supplicates for him.” [3]

👉 So you must first of all reform yourselves, since good results from the good that you do, and bad results from the bad that you do.

So good conduct from teachers and parents in front of the children is the best form of education and upbringing for them.” [4]

WHEN WORDS ARE BETTER THAN CHARITY

ALLĀH says,

قَوْلٌ مَّعْرُوفٌ
Kind words and forgiveness are better than charity followed by hurtful ˹words˺.

"Kind words" that is, words that are acceptable and not objectionable. That includes any kind words that make a Muslim feel happy, such as speaking gently when having to turn away a beggar, and praying for him.

"and forgiveness" towards one who mistreats you, by not blaming him and by pardoning him. That includes pardoning what the beggar may say of offensive words (when you turn him away).

Kind words and forgiveness are better than charity that is followed by hurtful words, because kind words come under the heading of verbal kindness, and forgiveness is also an act of kindness because you are not blaming him. Both actions are kindness in which there is nothing that may spoil it, so they are both better than a kind charitable act that is followed by hurtful reminders and the like.

What the verse means is that charity that is not followed by hurtful words or actions is better than kind words and forgiveness; rather it is reminding of charity that spoils it and it is forbidden, because only ALLĀH can remind of favours and all blessings come from HIM. Hence the individual should not remind others of something that came about as a result of ALLAH’s kindness and grace, and did not come from him. Moreover, reminding another of one’s favour is like enslaving him, but humbleness and servitude are only befitting if directed towards ALLĀH. ALLĀH has no need of HIS creation, but all of them need HIM in all circumstances and at all times. So the benefit of your charity, spending and worship comes back to you.

📚 Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah
===================
Allah (جل وعلا) said:
(وَأَمَّا ٱلۡجِدَارُ فَكَانَ لِغُلَٰمَيۡنِ يَتِيمَيۡنِ فِي ٱلۡمَدِينَةِ وَكَانَ تَحۡتَهُۥ كَنزٞ لَّهُمَا وَكَانَ أَبُوهُمَا صَٰلِحٗا فَأَرَادَ رَبُّكَ أَن يَبۡلُغَآ أَشُدَّهُمَا وَيَسۡتَخۡرِجَا كَنزَهُمَا رَحۡمَةٗ مِّن رَّبِّكَۚ وَمَا فَعَلۡتُهُۥ عَنۡ أَمۡرِيۚ.) الكهف/52

“And as for the wall, it belonged to two orphan boys in the city, and there was beneath it a treasure for them, and their father had been righteous. So your Lord intended that they reach maturity and extract their treasure, as a mercy from your Lord. And I did it not of my own accord." [18: 82]
