Advice & Support Column

[Beardo]

As I mentioned a couple months back, I write an Advice & Support column for this one magazine. Well, it's time for the next issue and the deadline is coming up. I need some people to ask me a few things. It's directed to the youth, mainly, so keep your questions in that relation.

I'm not sure if the Anonymous posting is working so you can PM me the entries as well inshallah.

This is HIGHLY appreciated!

Jazakumullahu Khair!

[Beardo]

^ Definitely! JAzax! Elongating the question might help as well. x] But yeah, I can definitely work with that inshallah! x]] Jazax!!

i think you may give fairly good advice on this question, if the topic is appropriate for your column.

lol. That would probably be deemed irrelevant by my editors. though, I don't have experience in that aspect. I only blog for my love of writing. o.o Alhamdulillah. Bloggers FTW!

Just a few ideas..

How to further our education while guarding ourselves from fitna?

Why is it important to educate ourselves about our religion as well as our intended career?

How do you know if you are ready for marriage?

I hope you can use at least one of those insha'Allah..

I got one.

The responsibility of carrying the message of Islam rests upon the youth of today, what contributions can the youth make for the greater good of the deen (in the long run)?

Mr. Writer, as a teenager, I need your expert opinion / suggestions on the followings:

a. I feel a huge gap between myself and my parent. How to bridge it.
b. How can I keep them aligned with my study and future intentions.
c. How can I enjoy some time with them to benefit us all.
d. My siblings are problematic and don’t understand me how to “fix” them all.
e. Time management is the big issue for me. I often miss my Salats.
:shade:

^ Awesome Alhamdulillah. I'm nothing them all down. Gotta get workin' on the railroad then.

You guys can keep'em coming. Also as examples, here are some previous entries:

Assalamu-alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatu! 
I am asking advice on behalf of my friend. She is currently taking night school and one of her classmate gives her unnecessary and unwanted attention, she is not comfartable with that. She has tried to ignore him and pretty much told him to shove off for lack of a better word but to no avail, he just doesnt give up…what should she do?

Salam,
I am having this halal food problem at home. My parents do not believe meat has to be slaughtered islamically in order to be halal. After a long argument they finally agreed to occasionally go to the halal store to get some meat. My issue is that I would like them to eat halal meat as well. What should I do?

 

[Ummu Sufyaan]
