Assalamualaikum.
The Holy month of Ramadan is finally here, alhamdulillah. Fasting may come easy for adult but it is very challenging to young children. We as parents must always bare in mind that as important Fasting during the month of Ramadan is, it should not be forced into our young children, what we can do is encourage them.
And to encourage out young khalifah to fast at school, we have created a special 'Fasting Tag' for our student, to be worn daily at school. They were given a choice to choose from 4 different design for boys and girls daily.
Baring in mind that there is no Hadith to force young children to fast at this tender age, but there is a Hadith stating that children should start to perform solat five times a day at the age of 7. We will not force our student to fast should they feel that they cannot go on. All non-fasting student will be given food & drinks as usual but in an isolated area away from the rest.
So far I am still ok !
Oh no shortage of Boys tag, looks like there are more fasting heroes at Prima.
