I Almost Lost Sight of the Main Goal
Trying to keep up with academics, I just might have lost sight of the main goal in life. All our actions should bring us closer to Allah, and not farther from Him. Although some may argue that what we’re doing is bringing us and our children closer to Allah, we should not ignore the reality. We may start out that way, but things change over time. When our children get older, we start conforming to non-Islamic ideologies of success. We find ourselves spending more time studying academic subjects and college tests preparedness, in hopes of “preparing them for their future”. Reflecting on my 20+ years of homeschooling, I had to think deeply about whether I put more energy into my relationship with Allah, or on other things. I had to think deeply about what future I was preparing them for, and I did not like what I realized. Everything, no matter if it is good or if it is bad, happens for a reason; there’s a lesson and opportunity in everything. So, I am using this lesson as a reminder to myself first and foremost to always ask, what am I doing this for?
May Allah guide us all to the straight path and keep us firm upon Islam!!!
