Kids and Phones

Question: How to take away phones from the kids and keep them busy?

Shaykh AI:

B’ism Allah… Alhamdulillah, from the teachings of Mawlana Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi (QS), it’s important to find alternative activities to keep kids busy without relying on phones. Engaging them in physical activities such as sports, outdoor games, or even indoor activities like drawing, painting, or reading can be beneficial. Additionally, involving them in household chores or teaching them simple skills like cooking or gardening can also be productive and engaging.

It’s important to set a positive example by spending quality time with the children and showing them that there are many fulfilling activities beyond the digital world. By fostering a loving and interactive environment, children can be encouraged to explore their creativity and develop new skills without the need for excessive screen time.

May Allah (ﷻ) bless you and your family with guidance and wisdom in nurturing your children’s growth and development. Remember to be patient and loving in this process, and may your efforts be rewarded with success.
