Assalamu alaikumMy mind is still thinking about all the words that sheikh Muhammad ended with. But one thing stands out. We don't have a choice. We need to step up!
There is a lot of work to do and to help stop the dragons from slaying us, I thought I would add this picture.
It is to remind us of all the things we have learnt, the position we are in and to make us feel guilty for not taking action :)
BarakAllah feekum,
Mohammad

I would like to review the Avatar phases for my project.
ReplyDeleteYouth Leadership for Teenage Girls
My Avatar is frustrated mums.
Age 30-45
Gender Female
Name Nasreen
Occupation - Professional
Health - Average
Appearance - Smart Muslimah / Hijab wearing
Children - Teenage children
Relationship - Good
Biggest Desire - See her children to be successful firtly, Islamically and then Academically with excellent Emotional Intelligence.
Any ideas on how to improve the description of my Avatar?
What phases will my Avatar experience?
Jazakumullahkhair
Biggest Problem- Children lack positive peers, role models. Inadequate programmes motivating and inspiring teenagers.
Bored with madrassa's and some Islamic centres.
Remember the mindset: think like an eagle, not a duck.
ReplyDeleteI remember sheikh Muhammad saying that the avatar should be exact, so no ranges, like you have done for the age. Also is her biggest problem her children's role models?
ReplyDeleteI teach children quran and when I think about the mothers I can't see the lack of role models being the area they view as the biggest issue. It is certainly on their mind perhaps subconsciously but is it really their pain?
It could be their biggest pain is something else but once you start doing the offline work with the 'cool' girls you could highlight their children as the most important.

ReplyDeleteIll be attending a social media seminar next week for work on social media trends and how to move forward with your social media strategy. InshAllah although for work, we can all use the information so I will make notes and post my findings online inshAllah.
ReplyDeletehis half-day seminar will take you beyond the basic tools and techniques used in social media and provide insight into the future of social media trends. Look at ways you can take your current strategy to the next level to increase awareness of your brand, drive sales and web traffic and engage with your customers in a more sophisticated way.
Salaam,
ReplyDeleteI would:
1. Make it more specific. Exactly what age is Nasreen?
- What specifically does she do professionally?
- What specifically does she want to achieve with her children? This will allow you to determine exactly what program this sister wants for her children and you can design it accordingly inshaAllah.
2. Add to her pain: As a mother she wants to see her children succeed, and she thinks she is a bad mother because she is unable to provide them with oppurtunaties to better themselves and as much as she is looking she is unable to find something that will save them from getting in the wrong crowd and it kills her inside.
3. I would also make the relationship more specific - this way you can analyse their relationship and your program can add to it in one way or a another.
4. What is your definition of teenage children? You should also define your audience, as we know that parents can advocate something but if the children are not into it - it will never be successful. This will allow you to design something parents want, and the teenage kids need.
In summary - your best friend should be 'specific' :)
Hope this helps inshaAllah.
And Allah knows best.
