One of the hardest things we witness in Islamic education is not when a child struggles to memorise…
…but when they slowly lose interest in deen altogether.
Some children were enrolled with so much hope from their parents:
Quran classes,
memorisation programmes,
years of learning and support…
Yet when they become teenagers, many begin to drift away.
They attend less. They stop revising. They become passive. And sometimes… they want to leave learning deen completely.
And the heartbreaking part is: many parents are not careless or neglectful.
They are trying. They worry. They remind. They make sacrifices. They struggle between being gentle and being firm — often feeling lost themselves.
SubhanAllah, parenting in this generation is not easy.
Children today are growing up surrounded by endless distractions, social media, pressure, confusion, and environments that constantly compete for their hearts.
Perhaps this reminds us that teaching deen is not only about transferring knowledge. It is also about building love:
love for Allah,
love for the Qur’an,
love for salah,
and creating a safe space where children feel connected to Islam, not pressured by it.
Because sometimes, what keeps a child close to deen is not only the lesson itself… but the mercy, patience, and relationship they experience along the way.
Admissions are now open at Fajr Quran Centre. Please note that places are limited. By the permission of Allah, a portion of the fees collected will be allocated to support those in need of shelter and essential living necessities.
