Parenting Through Story-Telling By Hoda Beshir with a special Foreword by Dr. Ekram and Dr. M. Rida Beshir
PARENTING THROUGH STORY-TELLING
This book, which we have been thinking about for many years, has by Allah’s grace finally become a reality. The need for this book became apparent to us over the past several years.
In our first book, Meeting the Challenge of Parenting in the West:
An Islamic Perspective, we advised parents to use storytelling as a method for tarbiyah, as Allah models this for us in the Qur’an and the Prophet saaw models it for us in the Seerah.
We discussed the effectiveness of this technique, having used it ourselves and seen how well it works.
Throughout the following years, while we were traveling to different communities to deliver our parenting workshops, we often received questions from concerned parents about different problem behaviors that their young children were doing again and again.
They wanted to know how to deal with the behavior. Oftentimes, our answer was “use stories as one of the methods to deal with the problem.”
Many parents replied that they could not tell their children stories about their misbehaviour because they couldn’t invent stories.
And so, for years we have been hoping to write a collection of stories for common misbehaviors.
Earlier this year, we proposed the idea to our daughter Hoda and urged her to take on the project.
We held several dis- cussions and collaborated with her on the ideas in this book, letting her take the literary lead.
