What is a family halaqah and how do we hold one?

A family halaqah is a short gathering for learning at home, usually once a week for fifteen to twenty minutes. The way is simple: read one verse of the Qur'an or one hadith, share one story with a lesson, then discuss and end with a supplication. Let family members take turns presenting, including the children, so everyone feels involved. Keep the atmosphere warm and relaxed, not like a frightening lecture. Choose a fixed day and time so that it becomes a family habit. Start this week with a light topic close to their lives. See educating the family.
