D) Weekly Webinars on Parenting in English
One of the main concerns of Muslim families in the West has always been proper education based on Islamic principles.
Basically, parenting is one of the important and basic duties of parents that is not comparable to other duties and missions of parents.
But the important point here is that parents need training and empowerment to perform this important task.
Parents need to be aware and empowered to do this important thing by being aware of the principles and foundations of the Qur’an and hadith in the field of parenting, as well as being aware of the Ahl al-Bayt (AS) manners in raising their children.
For this purpose, the Deputy director of academic affairs of the Islamic Centre organizes this series of educational webinars in the field of raising children in English on Saturdays for one hour every week from 18:00.
In this series of webinars, various thinkers discuss various topics from the Qur’an and Islamic hadiths.

A.9. Strategies:
We expect all the respected presenters of this webinar series to make sure that their proposed title, syllabus, and presentation totally comply with the strategies and guidelines below:
-
- Webinar subjects should be narrowed down and specific in order to be addressable in a short webinar
- Webinars should be in line with the Islamic Centre of England’s reservations. A list of these reservations will be separately given to the presenters.
- Webinars should address the priorities under the remit of the general subject (Islam and Contemporary issues & Quranic Lifestyle)
- Webinars should be based on the academic and scholar evidences and not based on the general and public opinions
- Webinars should follow a critical and reflective perspective and not just a descriptive perspective
- In addressing each issue, both arguments and counter-arguments should be fairly addressed from different perspectives
- A number of resources should be suggested to the audiences around the topic of each webinar, enabling them to follow up with that topic after the webinar if they are interested.
- An academic and judgement-free outline of the subject should be provided in each webinar. That would be the remit of the audiences to listen to the arguments and counter-arguments coming from different perspectives; and then, choose the finest one. As Holy Quran mentions:
الَّذِينَ يَسْتَمِعُونَ الْقَوْلَ فَيَتَّبِعُونَ أَحْسَنَهُ أُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ هَدَاهُمُ اللَّهُ وَأُولَئِكَ هُمْ أُولُو الْأَلْبَابِ
Who listen to the Words and follow what is finest of it. These are they whom Allah has guided. They are those of understanding. (۱۸)
