My husband and I recently attended the Family Time Management Seminar held at Dar Us Salaam this past Saturday. It was taught by Dr. Husein Afeefy, who was very colorful and knowledgeable, and seemed to have great insight into the family unit, women (!), and marriage in general. Instead of a one-sided male point-of-view, he presented views that accurately reflected each party in a marriage and gave each family member, even children, their just due, Maasha'Allah. This is the way it should be!
At home, we've already implemented some of his suggestions for maximizing our quality time spent together as a family without sacrificing much-needed individual time, and it's working beautifully. We both were really able to benefit from a lot of introspection, as Dr. Afeefy asked some thought-provoking questions and presented the material in a way that really made us both stop and consider what he was saying.
I can't wait for his next class insha'Allah and I'll definitely post an update on the schedule as soon as I hear something. I highly recommend that if you weren't able to attend that you go when it's offered again- he mentioned that possibility at the end of class. In case you missed my original post, I've included a description below. JazaakAllahu Khayran Dr. Afeefy for the knowledge and may Allah preserve you and your family, Ameen!
