Raising Children In The Modern World

Every Muslim will no doubt have been brought up on or at least heard the Quranic verses linking love for parents as close to worship of God. But what if one has had a difficult childhood? What if one's main educators were television, materialism and consumption?

Sue Palmer is the renowned author author of the revolutionary book "Toxic Childhood - how modern life is damaging our children and what we can do about it". Join Sue and Muslim scholars on the 10th September for a post-Eid seminar where the theme of discussion will be toxic parenting.

The seminar is organised by the Cambridge based educational charity and voluntary organisation Muslim Education & Outreach Cambridge (MEOC) to cater for both Muslims and Non-Muslims audiences. In addition to the seminar by Sue Palmer the event features short bonus appearances by:

• Shaykh Ahmed Babikir (Imam of Islamia School London and Chairman of Ulfa Aid),
• Shaykh Dr Mohammed Akram Nadwi (Islamic Scholar and Research Fellow at Oxford University) - video,
• Sister Suma Din (Author of Children's and Adult's Books) and
• Representative of SISTERS Magazine (The Magazine for Fabulous Muslim Woman)
