If your Kids Ask About The God

Mainly on the gold 0-5 years, children live their lives with an amazing potential, which is a great curiosity. Over time, this potential continues to grow (Hopefully this potential does not end when adulthood and instead turned into persons "do not want to know" aka ignoran). Well, the most crucial moments that will confront the parents is when children ask about God. Be careful in giving answers to these all-important question. One little, it could mean we plant the seed inside the fruit shirk our hearts.

Here are some questions I put forward the usual children ask their parents:

Question 1: "Mom, God is about?"

Answer:

"Son, God is the Creator of everything. Heaven, earth, sea, rivers, rocks, cats, lizards, frogs, birds, everything, including creating a grandmother, grandfather, father, mother, you too." (Say it with children's eyes, smiling sweetly)

Question 2: "Mom, the form of God is like?"

Do not answer it this way:

"This form of God is like this .. hmmmm.. or it ...." because such an answer would be wrong and misleading.

But the answer is this:

" you know, the form of rivers, rocks, cats, goats, everything. Well, the form of God is not the same as anything you'll ever see. Call it whatever form, the form of God is not the same as what would you mention." (Say it with children's eyes, smiling sweetly)

فَاطِرُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ جَعَلَ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا وَمِنَ الْأَنْعَامِ أَزْوَاجًا يَذْرَؤُكُمْ فِيهِ لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ

It means: "(He is) the Creator of heaven and earth. He has given you of your own nature and the pairs of species pairs of cattle (too), made his breed you by the way. There is nothing similar to Him, and He Who heareth and Seeing. " (Surat ash-Syuraa: 11)

Question 3: "Mom, why we can not see God?
{This section was added after discussion Miss VogueChica and sisters from the neighbor country, Malaysia.}

Do not answer it this way:

Because God is invisible, meaning that the goods or something that can not be seen with the naked eye.

The answer that God is supernatural (alone), clearly contradicts the following verse.
Al-Hadid (57) verse 3:

هُوَ الْأَوَّلُ وَالْآخِرُ وَالظَّاهِرُ وَالْبَاطِنُ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ

Meaning: "He is the First and the Last; The Zahir and the Mind, and He is Knower of all things."

It is feared, the innocent child's imagination will equate God with his magical ghosts, jinns, angels, fairies and even in fairy tales. That the science of Tawheed is stated that God is real as real-real, more real than real, is not indisputable.

Moreover, if we use the diction (word choice) "goods" and "something" is directed at God. Is not it obvious proposition Surat ash-Syuraa above that God is "God is not something;" "not equal to anything;" but the Creator of all things.

Answer this:

"Why do we not seen God?"
Can we answer the question back to him (while practicing winsome sister think rhetorically)
"Brother can see the bright sun directly? No 'right .. because our eyes can be blind. Well, we wrote to see the sun could not. So, how do we see the sun's Creator. Yeah, right!"

Or it could also give an answer:

see the vast sky and the 'big' it 'right? What we see is just a fraction of the actual form of the sky. you can not see the end of heaven, right?! Well, we also can not see God because God is the Creator of heaven are large and spacious earlier. That said Allahu Akbar mean time we pray. God is Great.

Please your palms faced down toward the face. Can be seen the lines your hand, right? Well, now hold your hand close enough to the your eye . Can you see you finger clearly??

In conclusion, we can not see God because God is Great and very close to us. Nevertheless, There's God. "Close is not allied, were not far between."

Do not answer it this way:

"Son, there's a God above. Or in heaven."
Answers like this is misleading because the logic of children in outer space there is no direction of the wind up-down-left-right-front-rear. If it is said in heaven, heaven is greater than God. Allahu Akbar means the principle that a lie?

Also, do not answer like this:

"Son, God exists everywhere."
It is feared that the child will automatically think of God's many and divided, like the Freemasons or Ancient Greek polytheist.

Answer this:

"Son, the Lord is near to us. God is always there in the heart of every pious person, including the heart, darling. So, God is always there with you wherever you are."

 وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ

It means: "And when My servants question thee concerning Me, then (answer), I am indeed near. I grant the request of a person who prays when he pleaded with me, then let them meet (my commandments) and let them believe in Me, so they are always in truth. " (Surah al-Baqarah: 186)
