Parents fail to explain do's and don'ts to their children and these are the results. It all boils down to the lack of islamic education and environment at home.
Too many parents say, you can't do this and you can't do that, without ever bothering to explain the repercussions of forbidden acts. Exposure to films/songs that glorify this kind of love will only corrupt young minds. And some old ones too.
Islamic education from an early age, is the only way forward. As they say prevention is better than cure.  |
This reminds me of a story typical of many muslim youths. A man came to the imam of the masjid, complaining about his teenage son.
My son doesn't pray, he takes drugs and has girlfriends. Can you do something about it?
The imam said, "how old is he now?"
"16"
"Well, you should have brought him to me when he was 5!"
Okay, without criticizing the imam, our children, our responsibility. Not the imam, the scholar or the teacher for that matter.
If can't handle responsibility, don't have sex. Nuff said. Because the consequence of your passionate and uncontrolled hormones is another life.
You've messed up yours, don't mess up others'.
