salaams to all
despite whatever objections anyone may have, its quite clear to me that without the occaisonal beating when required, most children will hardly learn anything.
in the past, when it was not against the law to beat children, even at school, there was much more respect & discipline.
now, with the TV & computer games & pop/rap videos one one side and the govt making corporal punishment illegal, there is not much chance of children learning anything.
due to ur misplaced kindness, we think were doing the child a favour by protecting him/her from getting beaten for being lax in their school or madrassah studies.
i wonder what kind of parents we would have had if there was no beating at school or madrassah in their days?
It should also be remembered that Islam is also about respect and Azmat of Deen. i feel that todays parents DONT raise their children as they oiught to and then we the results of this in their attitude to deeni education- there seems to be a lack of tarbiyyah. the ustaadh, being only human as well, gets frustrated at having to deal with so much just to get them to be able to recite the quran properly or to learn some duaahs etc.
i think its the whole attitude/mindset towards deen that needs to change.
the points to remember are :
1. The punishment should be to reform the child and not to give vent to one’s anger. If the teacher has no control over himself, how will be able to control his student?
2. It is not permissible to hit more than three strokes at once. (Shaami vol.1 pg.352; HM Saeed)
3. It is Haraam to hit on the face, damage the skin, break the bones and leave marks on the body. In such a situation, the teacher is liable for punishment.
and Allah ta'ala knows best
jazakallah
