Salam,

Dear All,
Not like early ages we are facing several latest problem in our society. Most of the parents have a panic of their children though they are adhering Islamic values... slightly.

I hope this one too helpful to parents..

Your Children Are Home What Are They Doing?

It is a dangerous combination: video games and disassociated parents. Put these two together, and all you can expect is serious tunnels of perversion and destruction.

How much time have parents taken to see what video games their kids are playing?

Basically they only need to hear is "but mom, Ahmed and Talal have it", so assuming if other kids have the game it must be ok? What amazes me is that parents literally do not spend any time with their kids because it would only take 5 minutes relaxing on your son's bed while he is playing a video game to find out where your hard-earned dollar has been spent, which in the end will be asked about by Allah.

Let's take a little walk through of the most famous games that are available for kids these days. For the next five weeks I will focus on the top three games that go beyond your imagination. This should be important to you no matter who you are. Whatever the excuse, you need to know what is going on. For one day will be asked by Allah about our actions and our inactions. What then will be our excuse?

Excuse 1: But I don't know what my kids like, they are good at picking out their own games:

If your general attitude is like this then you have a lot to learn. Kids are picking out games that are "Hot" and "like the Jones's or the Ahmed's". They will do anything to be like all the other kids. Society kick-started by Shaytan has defined what is "cool" and this is very dangerous

Excuse 2: But my kids are small:

After reading about a few of these games you can only predict that the games in the video games in the future are only going to be more interactive, more perverted, and "better graphics" to see what is really happening in the game.

Excuse 3: My kids are grown now:

Even if your kids are grown now, you need to know what is going on out there. We all know other families who have children who buy video games. Many times these parents have no idea what they are playing. So we have a responsibility to our community to stay educated.

We need to stay on top of every evil and know everything about it in order to protect not only our own children but the children of the Ummah. We need to actively participate in denouncing these evil games. But we first need to know what we are talking about.

We are going have to walk on a side of the track that you would never have thought of walking in order to know our enemy. The one we have allowed in our home. I'm not saying throw out all the video games, but use common sense. All you have to do is go on the internet and read the reviews about the game and within seconds you will know what you are buying. Flip through the graphics and read what kind of kids are playing these games and why they think they are "cool" Even better borrow a games from one of your kid friends and take a look at what your kid is going to hear and see.

What's the problem? We are talking about rape, disgusting language, nudity, sex, killing police officers, ethnic cleansing, only to name a few points of the games that are out there.

What we have to deal with?
