The Holy Quran serves as a profound source of guidance and understanding throughout the various stages of our lives. In Surah Al-Rum, Allah reminds us:
While a myriad of resources in the U.S. are available for the general senior population to assist with paying for long-term care, such as Medicare and Medicaid, few resources exist specifically to assist aging Muslims.
Being a caregiver can be a deeply fulfilling yet physically and emotionally draining experience. Whether you're caring for a family member, a friend, or a loved one, the role often involves constant attention, patience, and empathy.
Elders are the backbone of our communities. They have laid the foundation for the future, constructing and maintaining the mosques in which we pray and the institutions where our children learn about Islam. Many have dedicated their lives to raising generations upon the faith.
Did you know that the longest-lasting blood relationship is that of your siblings? They outlive your parents, aunts, uncles, and even your spouse in some cases.
Maintaining a healthy relationship with your child is important for their development. Strong parent-to-child relationships help improve their social interactions, emotional intelligence, and will increase their positive attitude.
