Respecting The Elders
Respecting The Elders
(At-Tirmidhi)
As children we must respect our elders at all times. Do not make your parents
sad because they are the ones who looked after you when you were small.
They sacrificed all their needs to provide our needs and to give us a better
future.
Elders are not only your parents, it also means your teachers, grandparents,
brothers, sisters or even anyone who you meet on the road, who is elder to
you. You must always respect your elders by helping them cross the road,
giving them a seat in the bus, sharing your food with them if they are hungry
or reading out letters, stories, religious books etc. In any condition, you must
never raise your voice against them or argue which will hurt them. You must
always talk and greet your elders in a kind and friendly manner which will
make their hearts happy.
If you respect your elders you will get the blessings of them which is
important for us to have a good future. It is so sad to see some children ignore
their elders by not giving proper respect or care to them. So my dear friends,
let’s make this world a better place through respecting elders.
Jazakallahu Haira
