It is all about the environment and how hard you work, but I think in the end this might lead to your offsprings being able to adapt to learning faster than you. If two people who excelled at school married they might have offsprings whose brains are quicker in terms of learning. In any case anyone can excel if they put the effort in. My mum is a big-massive fan of education, with her - it is all about education. It suprises me, because she never had a proper schooling herself, and was from a small town, but her peers in xamar never cared too much about education. My mum made sure my siblings failed in school, because she never liked the school they went to - a somali state school. Apparently, if you wanted your kids to pass class you pay some bribery money, and she never did. Once they all failed and got kicked out, she told my father, "see this school is rubbish, we need to send the kids to private schools, they all failed" And my father did afterwards, all my older siblings went to a private Arab school except one brother who went to a British private school (I always wandered, "would I have too?" since I was the year younger than him.) I'm telling you all this because education is important. You can't have Islam without being educated, and being educated is Islam!

So I quote Tony Blair this time; Education, Education, Education.

Please work hard on your offsprings education. Make something out of them! Insha-allah.

"O Allah fill the hearts and minds with true enlightenment, discerning intelligence, quick understanding and knowledge. Verily Thou are able to do all things"

i knew that was a Tony Blair quote

Warsan

You should've quoted the prophet (SAW)

Udhlubul 3ilma minal mahdi ilallaxdi=======Seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave (basically, yr whole life) Or Seek knowledge even if it is in China.

Personally, I am sorry to say this but I am a Kindergarten drop-out and I don't care anyone who flops. Misery loves company

^^ I forgot about that hadith. Jazak-allah khair for posting it.

Luggoyo, still invest in your kids education, plus it is never too late to get educated.

Education is critical. I still thank Abo's school teacher whenever I see him, for I am 1 generation away from being a merchant trader in Hobyo.

salaams dear warsan,

yes, education, education, education.. but the problem is not the availability of education as it more of understanding what is learned...too many folks know too much they don't understand...including Islam.

No. Akhlaaq is more important than education.

The prophet pbuh never said that, its not a hadith its an arabic maah maah.

Wasalam sister, Very true. It gets tricky then, some people do lose the plot, they use 'education' in the wrong way. But how do we counter this? Isn't it by educating them in their wrongs?

You are not born with Akhalaaq, you are taught good behaviour, and anything you are taught is education.
