🕌 Worship in the home · #110

Is it good for us to review the family's worship at the end of the year?

Reviewing the state of the family's worship regularly helps you repair what has slipped before neglect becomes a habit. Choose a calm time, and ask together: what improved this year, and what needs strengthening? Set one or two clear goals for the coming year, not a long, burdensome list. Allah commands: “Protect yourselves and your families from the Fire” (Surah at-Tahrim 66:6), and a review like this is part of that protection. Focus on progress, not blaming anyone. Write down the goals and review them again after a few months. Make it a family tradition to look forward to. See household review.
