Name Withheld – What Do You Think of Her Statement?


“I went to my prom, was crowned Prom Queen, and had a ball.I am also going to let my children go to their proms, if they choose to…

They are currently in public and private school, are exposed everyday to the opposite sex. I do my best to talk to my children about this religion and where this religion is in their lives. To expect our children to not experience things in life is ridiculous. I think that if the brother goes with his sister it should be fine.

They know they are Muslim, their Islam is not going to go out the window if they attend proms, award ceremonies, or graduations. They are always going to be exposed to things that are unIslamic, as long as we do the very best within our limits as parents, Insha’Allah our children will be fine.”
