Child Behavior: What Parents Can Do to Change Their Child's Behavior

What is normal behavior for a child?

Normal behavior in children depends on the child's age, personality, and physical and emotional development. A child's behavior may be a problem if it doesn't match the expectations of the family or if it is disruptive. Normal or "good" behavior is usually determined by whether it's socially, culturally and developmentally appropriate. Knowing what to expect from your child at each age will help you decide whether his or her behavior is normal.

What can I do to change my child's behavior?

Children tend to continue a behavior when it is rewarded and stop a behavior when it is ignored. Consistency in your reaction to a behavior is important because rewarding and punishing the same behavior at different times confuses your child. When you think your child's behavior might be a problem, you have 3 choices:

• Decide that the behavior is not a problem because it's appropriate to the child's age and stage of development.
• Attempt to stop the behavior, either by ignoring it or by punishing it.
• Introduce a new behavior that you prefer and reinforce it by rewarding your child.

How do I stop misbehavior?

The best way to stop unwanted behavior is to ignore it. This way works best over a period of time. When you want the behavior to stop immediately, you can use the time-out method.

How do I use the time-out method?

Decide ahead of time the behaviors that will result in a time-out (usually tantrums, or aggressive or dangerous behavior). Choose a time-out place that is uninteresting for the child and not frightening, such as a chair, corner or playpen. When you're away from home, consider using a car or a nearby seating area as a time-out place.

When the unacceptable behavior occurs, tell the child the behavior is unacceptable and give a warning that you will put him or her in time-out if the behavior doesn't stop. Remain calm and don't look angry. If your child goes on misbehaving, calmly take him or her to the time-out area.

If possible, keep track of how long your child's been in time-out. Set a timer so your child will know when time-out is over. Time-out should be brief (generally 1 minute for each year of age), and should begin immediately after reaching the time-out place or after the child calms down. You should stay within sight or earshot of the child, but don't talk to him or her. If the child leaves the time-out area, gently return him or her to the area and consider resetting the timer. When the time-out is over, let the child leave the time-out place. Don't discuss the bad behavior, but look for ways to reward and reinforce good behavior later on.

How do I encourage a new, desired behavior?

One way to encourage good behavior is to use a reward system. Children who learn that bad behavior is not tolerated and that good behavior is rewarded are learning skills that will last them a lifetime. This works best in children older than 2 years of age. It can take up to 2 months to work. Being patient and keeping a diary of behavior can be helpful to parents.

Choose 1 to 2 behaviors you would like to change (for example, bedtime habits, tooth brushing or picking up toys). Choose a reward your child would enjoy. Examples of good rewards are an extra bedtime story, delaying bedtime by half an hour, a preferred snack or, for older children, earning points toward a special toy, a privilege or a small amount of money.

Explain the desired behavior and the reward to the child. For example, "If you get into your pajamas and brush your teeth before this TV show is over, you can stay up a half hour later." Request the behavior only one time. If the child does what you ask, give the reward. You can help the child if necessary but don't get too involved. Because any attention from parents, even negative attention, is so rewarding to children, they may prefer to have parental attention instead of a reward at first. Transition statements, such as, "In 5 minutes, play time will be over," are helpful when you are teaching your child new behaviors.

This system helps you avoid power struggles with your child. However, your child is not punished if he or she chooses not to behave as you ask; he or she simply does not get the reward.

What are some good ways to reward my child?

Beat the Clock (good method for a dawdling child)

Ask the child to do a task. Set a timer. If the task is done before the timer rings, your child gets a reward. To decide the amount of time to give the child, figure out your child's "best time" to do that task and add 5 minutes.

The Good Behavior Game (good for teaching a new behavior)

Write a short list of good behaviors on a chart and mark the chart with a star each time you see the good behavior. After your child has earned a small number of stars (depending on the child's age), give him or her a reward.

Good Marks/Bad Marks (best method for difficult, highly active children)

In a short time (about an hour) put a mark on a chart or on your child's hand each time you see him or her performing a good behavior. For example, if you see your child playing quietly, solving a problem without fighting, picking up toys or reading a book, you would mark the chart. After a certain number of marks, give your child a reward. You can also make negative marks each time a bad behavior occurs. If you do this, only give your child a reward if there are more positive marks than negative marks.

Developing Quiet Time (often useful when you're making supper)

Ask your child to play quietly alone or with a sibling for a short time (maybe 30 minutes). Check on your child frequently (every 2 to 5 minutes, depending on the child's age) and give a reward or a token for each few minutes they were quiet or playing well. Gradually increase the intervals (go from checking your child's behavior every 2 to 5 minutes to checking every 30 minutes), but continue to give rewards for each time period your child was quiet or played well. 

What else can I do to help my child behave well?

Make a short list of important rules and go over them with your child. Avoid power struggles, no-win situations and extremes. When you think you've overreacted, it's better to use common sense to solve the problem, even if you have to be inconsistent with your reward or punishment method. Avoid doing this often as it may confuse your child.

Accept your child's basic personality, whether it's shy, social, talkative or active. Basic personality can be changed a little, but not very much. Try to avoid situations that can make your child cranky, such as becoming overly stimulated, tired or bored. Don't criticize your child in front of other people. Describe your child's behavior as bad, but don't label your child as bad. Praise your child often when he or she deserves it. Touch him or her affectionately and often. Children want and need attention from their parents.

Develop little routines and rituals, especially at bedtimes and meal times. Provide transition remarks (such as "In 5 minutes, we'll be eating dinner."). Allow your child choices whenever possible. For example, you can ask, "Do you want to wear your red pajamas or your blue pajamas to bed tonight?"

As children get older, they may enjoy becoming involved in household rule making. Don't debate the rules at the time of misbehavior, but invite your child to participate in rule making at another time.

Why shouldn't I use physical punishment?

Parents may choose to use physical punishment (such as spanking) to stop undesirable behavior. The biggest drawback to this method is that although the punishment stops the bad behavior for a while, it doesn't teach your child to change his or her behavior. Disciplining your child is really just teaching him or her to choose good behaviors. If your child doesn't know a good behavior, he or she is likely to return to the bad behavior. Physical punishment becomes less effective with time and can cause the child to behave aggressively. It can also be carried too far -- into child abuse. Other methods of punishment are preferred and should be used whenever possible.

Ramadan guide for non-Muslims

by Asma Uddin and Shazia KamalSource: Washington Post
From : http://muslimvillage.com

In the next few weeks, you may come into work and find your co-worker taking a power nap at 9:30am. At break time, you’ll notice she is missing in the discussion about Harry Potter over at the water cooler. At the staff meeting, you will be shocked when she is offered coffee and cookies and refuses ! By lunch time, your concern about her missing at the water cooler compels you to investigate the situation.

Then you remember what she had mentioned last week over a delicious Sushi lunch. Flooded with relief, you go up to her desk, and proclaim with much gusto, “Ramadan Mubarak (Moo-baa-rak)!” Ramadan’s Blessings to you!

The month of Ramadan is a happy occasion; it is the month that the Muslim holy book, the Koran, was revealed to our Prophet Muhammad. Muslims are called by their religion to celebrate the month by coming together in worship, fasting each day for thirty days from dawn until sunset.

While this may seem like a tremendous feat, consider this: Fasting while working is an even greater endeavor. Make it a little easier on your Muslim colleague by following a couple of simple rules:

The Greeting

The next time you find yourself in line for the copier with your Muslim colleague, feel free to wish him or her “Ramadan Mubarak” or “Ramadan Kareem” or simply “Happy Ramadan.” We absolutely love it when people acknowledge Ramadan and are happy about it.

Positive Reinforcement

Keep in mind that we’re fasting voluntarily and, actually, pretty joyously (despite the tired, sad look on our face). We’re not forced to fast. In fact, we wait for this month the whole year, so you don’t have to feel sorry for us. We are not trying to be rescued (other than by that ticking clock taking us closer to sunset!).

The Lunch Meeting

Most of us understand that life goes on, and so do lunch meetings, and if we are participating in them while fasting, don’t worry about eating in front of us. This is just part of the test. We appreciate your acknowledging our fast, but don’t feel the need to discuss it every time you show up in our line of sight holding food.

Just try not to eat smelly foods. . . and please ignore our stomach when it growls at your sandwich.

No Water

It’s true — we can’t drink water either. Again, this is part of the Ramadan test and our exercise of spiritual discipline. This is probably why you may not find your friend at the water cooler. Try switching the break time conversation to another location in the office. You should probably also let them skip their turn for the coffee run this time.

Halitosis

While God may tell us that the breath of the one fasting is like “fragrant musk” to Him, we know that you might experience the same. Understand why we’re standing a good foot away from you when speaking or simply using sign language to communicate.

Iftar Dinner

Consider holding a Ramadan Iftar dinner . Iftar is the Arabic word for the meal served at sunset when we break the fast (it’s literally our ‘breakfast’). This will be a nice gesture for Muslim coworkers and will give others the opportunity to learn about and partake in Ramadan festivities. Although there is no specific type of meal designated for iftars, it is is tradition to break the fast with a sweet and refreshing date before moving to a full-on dinner

Fasting is not an excuse

Although energy levels might be low, the point of fasting is not to slack off from our other duties and responsibilities. We believe that we are rewarded for continuing to work and produce during our fasts. Fasting is not a reason to push meetings, clear schedules, or take a lighter load on projects.

That said – we don’t mind if you help work in a nap time for us!

Ramadan is a time for community and charity. There are iftar dinners held at mosques every night (you are welcome to join the fun – even if you’re not fasting!) and night time prayer vigils throughout the month. We give charity in abundance and make an extra effort to partake in community service. Throughout it all, we maintain an ambiance of joy and gratitude for all that God has blessed us with, and reflect on those in this world who have been given much less. This is a time for all of us–not just Muslims–to renew our spiritual intentions, increase our knowledge, and change ourselves for the better.

France: major divisions over anti-Islam debate

by Colin Randall

From : http://muslimvillage.com

Apr 03 2011

The French government is resisting mounting pressure to abandon a planned debate on Islam that has split the ruling party, dismayed Muslims and united leaders of all the country’s main religions in firm opposition.

In its first joint communiqué since being created last November, the Conference of French Religious Leaders said the approach of presidential elections, scheduled for one year from now, was not the right time for a discussion that could stigmatise Muslims and increase prejudice.

Widespread criticism of the debate, scheduled for Tuesday, underlines the government’s failure to prove its claim that it is intended to be about France’s legally enshrined secularism and not solely on Islam.

Even the Prime Minister, François Fillon, has declared his opposition. He confirmed yesterday that he had no intention of taking part, though it was stressed that the decision was taken weeks ago with President Nicolas Sarkozy’s agreement.

Leaders of the Roman Catholic, Muslim, Protestant, Jewish, Orthodox Christian and Buddhist faiths said in their statement: “The acceleration of political agendas may, on the eve of electoral events important to the future of our country, blur the vision and cause confusion that can only be detrimental.”

While describing debate as healthy for democratic society, the Conference of French Religious Leaders asked: “Is a political party, even if it is in the majority, the right forum to lead this [dialogue] by itself?”

The statement’s 12 signatories include Mohammed Moussaoui and Anouar Kbibech, respectively president and secretary general of the French Muslim Council.

After Catholicism, Islam is France’s biggest religion. The Muslim population is estimated at between five and seven million, most having roots in North and sub-Saharan Africa.

Mr Sarkozy is said to be anxious that the discussion should go ahead as planned, but his cause is not aided by a ban on face-covering veils that takes effect less than a week later.

Critics say the so-called “burqa ban” is unnecessarily divisive, given that fewer than 3,000 Muslim women in France are estimated to wear them. A French-Algerian businessman has raised hundreds of thousands of euros in an appeal fund to pay the fines of any woman prosecuted under the law.

It has fallen to Jean-François Copé, the president of the president’s ruling centre-right UMP party, to lead the way in defending the debate.

Mr Copé is adamant that there is no hostile or aggressive motivation.

He has called for “an end to the hysteria” and claims the interest of equality for all faiths will be served by discussion on how secularism, established by a law passed in 1905 and regarded as a cornerstone of France’s republican values, is respected in practice.

Exasperated by party divisions at the very top, he accused Mr Fillon on live television of “not being a team player”. Mr Fillon responded in chilly fashion, reminding his colleague that “you can’t air your differences with the prime minister like that on television”.

Then François Baroin, the government spokesman and finance minister, was “invited” by the Elysée to clarify his position after calling for an “end to all these debates” and a return by the UMP to deeper republican principles.

He appeared to do so, only to return to the theme on French television yesterday, saying he withdrew “not a single word”.

Abderahmane Dahmane, a former presidential adviser on diversity, has urged French Muslims to wear green stars in protest at the debate and against “Islamophobia”.

The suggestion, which recalls the yellow stars that Jews were forced by the Nazis to wear in the Second World War, has been condemned as “grotesque” by Richard Prasquier, the leader of a Jewish secular group, the Representative Council  of Jewish Institutions.

Mr Prasquier, who supports next week’s debate as a valid response to French people’s concerns, told Agence France-Presse: “It is unfortunately part of a wider movement that mixes everything up and makes everything equate to the Holocaust.”

Political figures who have spoken out in favour of the debate deny that there is any connection to UMP efforts to win back middle France voters who have turned to a more simplistic answer to their concerns on immigration and crime.

But Martine Le Pen’s openly nationalist Front National wastes no opportunity to exploit signs of government weakness in stemming an influx of migrants. It welcomes the debate as playing directly into its hands as it seeks a major political breakthrough.

The controversy is probably the last thing Mr Sarkozy needs as he approaches the most difficult period of his presidency, with some members of his party beginning to question whether he should be the candidate next year.

From French media commentators yesterday, the advice was overwhelmingly that he should think again.

The left-of-centre Le Monde offered a plain message: “There is still time for him to come out of denial, take a wiser path and give up this debate.”

Even the conservative daily Le Figaro, while concluding that a political party could hardly be blamed for reflecting on major issues, admitted that the “content, objectives, appropriateness and timing” were questionable

Russia closes down foremost Islamic organisation

by OnIslam & Newspapers

May 30 2011

A court decision to close a leading Islamic organization in Russia was criticized as bureaucratic political order targeting the Muslim minority and reflecting a growing authorities’ desire to bring the country’s Muslims under Kremlin control.

“This is a bureaucratic order from people who want the Muslim part of society to be represented by puppets,” Abdul-Wahid Niyazov, the chairman and founder of the Islamic Cultural Centre, told The Moscow Times on Friday, May 27.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court confirmed a decision from the Justice Ministry last fall to close the centre for “multiple violations of financial regulations.”

The court order said that 21 of the centre’s 54 regional branches lacked proper legal documentation.

Confirming political reasons behind the ruling, Niyazov said the evidence presented by the Justice Ministry was obtained under pressure from the Federal Security Service (FSB).

He said many of the centre’s regional directors had resigned after receiving intimidating calls from the FSB.

“Any member of our regional staff will testify that they were threatened and pressured,” he said at a Supreme Court hearing Tuesday, Interfax reported.

He added that he would appeal the decision with a complaint to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.

Another complaint would be made to the All-Russia People’s Front, the political vehicle set up by Prime Minister Vladimir Putin earlier this month.

The Islamic Cultural Centre, whose work has been suspended since last fall, held exhibitions, news conferences and readings and hosted visiting Islamic dignitaries.

It describes itself as the “public arm” of the Council of Muftis, one of four organizations representing the country’s Muslims.

Council spokeswoman Gulnur Gaziyeva said the centre’s work was directed at the well-being of the country’s Muslims.

“We believe that we can correct the legal problems and re-register the organization,” she said by telephone.

There are some 23 million Muslims in the Russian Federation concentrated in the north of the Caucasus, representing roughly 15 per cent of its 145 million population.

Islam is the country’s second-largest religion, behind the Russian Orthodoxy.

Political Struggle

On the other hand, the centre’s closure was welcomed by other rival Muslim organization in Russia, reportedly supported by the Kremlin.

“This so-called public arm of the Council of Muftis was just a poor excuse for a sham,” Mukhammedgali Khuzin, the executive chairman of the All-Russia Muftiate, said.

Khuzin accused the centre of doing harm to the Muslim community and to the country’s interfaith relations.

Yet, he did not elaborate on examples of this harm.

Despite Khuzin’s accusations, many analysts linked the struggle to Russian authorities’ desire to bring the country’s Muslims under tighter control.

Alexander Soldatov, a religions expert with Portal-credo.ru, said that the move followed mass prayers organized by the Council of Muftis at Moscow’s central mosque for the Eid al-Adha feast last November.

After showing up a large Muslim gathering, a frightened Kremlin sought a way out to silence them, he added.

“After the prayers last fall they introduced the All-Russia Muftiat — which is obviously directed against the council,” Soldatov said.

Soldatov also said City Hall has shown extreme reluctance to Muslims’ demands to build new mosques in the capital after last year’s nationalist rioting on Manezh Square.

Last December, Moscow saw the worst nationalist riots in its post-Soviet history after the killing of a football fan in a street fight between far-rightists and immigrant workers.

Chanting “Russia for Russians, Moscow for Muscovites”, thousands of Russians attacked anyone of a non-Slavic appearance.

Xenophobic attacks are common in Russia, particularly against people from the former Soviet republics, who flock by the millions to Moscow and other large cities to work.

Building mosques has been facing stiff oppositions from Russian residents.

Last October, residents wrote to the Russian president demanding the halt of plans to build a mosque in Tekstilschiki district in Moscow.

Following these riots, authorities backed away from plans to build a mosque in the south eastern Tekstilshchiki neighbourhood after complaints from local residents.

Although the capital boasts scores of mainly Muslim migrants, it officially only has four mosques.

On Thursday afternoon, City Hall officials held talks with Muslim representatives over the issue. No results of the meeting were immediately released.

Australian Muslims launch advertising campaign to promote Islam

ஆஸ்திரேலிய பேருந்துகளில் இஸ்லாமிய விளம்பரங்கள்...

May 29 2011

Christians in Sydney will have their core beliefs challenged by provocative advertisements due to appear on billboards and buses in the next month.

The ads, paid for by an Islamic group called MyPeace, will carry slogans such as ”Jesus: a prophet of Islam”, ”Holy Quran: the final testament” and ”Muhammad: mercy to mankind”.

A phone number urges people to call to receive a free Koran and other Islamic literature.

The organiser of MyPeace, Diaa Mohamed, said the campaign was intended to educate non-Muslims about Islam. He said Jesus was a prophet of Islam, who was to come before Muhammad. ”The only difference is we say he was a prophet of God, and they say he is God,” Mr Mohamed said. ”Is it thought-provoking? Yes, it is. We want to raise awareness that Islam believes in Jesus Christ,” he said.

Mr Mohamed said he hoped the billboards would encourage Christians and Muslims to find common ground. They were not intended to downgrade the significance of Jesus. ”We embrace him and say that he was one of the mightiest prophets of God.”

MyPeace plans to extend the campaign, funded by private donations, to television.

The Anglican Bishop of South Sydney, Rob Forsyth, said it was ”complete nonsense” to say Jesus was a prophet of Islam. ”Jesus was not the prophet of a religion that came into being 600 years later.”

But the billboard was not offensive, he said. ”They’ve got a perfect right to say it, and I would defend their right to say it [but] … you couldn’t run a Christian billboard in Saudi Arabia.”

The bishop said he would pay for billboards to counter those of MyPeace if he could afford it, and ”maybe the atheists should run their billboards as well”.

A spokesman for the Australian Islamic Mission, Siddiq Buckley, said the campaign would increase awareness of the positive facts of Islam. ”I would be looking at this as a good opportunity to explain what we mean.”

ஆஸ்திரேலிய பேருந்துகளில் இஸ்லாமிய விளம்பரங்கள்...

நம் அனைவர் மீதும் ஏக இறைவனின் சாந்தியும், சமாதானமும் நிலவுவதாக...ஆமீன். 

ஆஸ்திரேலியாவில், இதுவரை இல்லாத அளவிலான இஸ்லாமிய விழிப்புணர்வு பிரச்சாரத்தை, தாங்கள் தொடங்கியுள்ளதாக அறிவித்துள்ளது சிட்னியை தலைமையிடமாக கொண்ட "மை பீஸ் (My Peace)" என்ற அமைப்பு. 

இத்திட்டத்தின் முதல் கட்டமாக, சிட்னி நகரின் பரபரப்பு மிக்க சாலைகளில் மிகப்பெரிய அளவிலான விளம்பரப்பலகைகளை நிறுவியுள்ளது இந்த அமைப்பு. கடந்த மே 26 ஆம் தேதி நிறுவப்பட்ட இந்த விளம்பரங்கள் இன்னும் நான்கு வார காலத்திற்கு அந்த பகுதிகளில் நீடிக்கும். 

இது குறித்த செய்தி ஆஸ்திரேலியாவின் பாரம்பரியமிக்க நாளிதழான "சிட்னி மார்னிங் ஹெரால்ட்"டில் வெளிவந்தவுடன் கூடவே பரபரப்பும் தொற்றிக்கொள்ள ஆரம்பித்து விட்டது. இந்த விளம்பர பலகைகள் பற்றி கருத்து தெரிவிக்கும் இந்த பத்திரிகை "கிருத்துவ நம்பிக்கையின் அடிப்படையிலேயே கை வைப்பதாக உள்ளன இந்த விளம்பரங்கள்" என்று குறிப்பிட்டுள்ளது. 

அப்படி என்ன இருக்கின்றது அந்த விளம்பர பலகையில்? 

பின்வருவது தான் அந்த விளம்பர பலகைகளில் உள்ள வாசகம், 

Jesus: A Prophet of Islam - இயேசு : ஓர் இஸ்லாமிய இறைத்தூதர்

மேற்கண்ட வாசகத்திற்கு பக்கத்தில் இந்த அமைப்பின் தொலைப்பேசி எண்கள் மற்றும் வலைத்தள முகவரி கொடுக்கப்பட்டு "குர்ஆன் மற்றும் இஸ்லாமிய நூல்களை" இலவசமாக பெற தொடர்பு கொள்ளவும் என்று குறிப்பிடப்பட்டுள்ளது.  

இந்த விளம்பரங்கள் குறித்து விளக்கமளிக்கும் இத்திட்ட அமைப்பாளர் தியா முஹம்மத் (Diaa Mohamed), முஸ்லிம்களையும் கிருத்துவர்களையும் ஒரு பொதுவான பார்வையின் கீழ் கொண்டுவரவும், முஸ்லிம்கள் ஏசுவை நம்புகின்றவர்கள் என்பது குறித்து விழிப்புணர்வு ஏற்படுத்தவுமே இந்த விளம்பரங்கள் என்று கூறியுள்ளார். 

வரும் நாட்களில் மேலும் சில வாசகங்களை கொண்ட விளம்பர பலகைகள் நிறுவப்படும் என்றும் தெரிவித்துள்ளார். அந்த வாசகங்கள்,  

• Holy Qur'an: The Final Testament - புனித குர்ஆன் : கடைசி ஏற்பாடு.    

• Muhammed (s): A Mercy to Mankind - முஹம்மது (ஸல்): மனிதகுலத்தின் கருணை. 

• Islam: Got Questions? Get Answers - இஸ்லாம்: கேள்விகளா? பதிலை பெற்று கொள்ளுங்கள். 

இந்த விளம்பரத்திற்கு எதிர்ப்புகள் எழ தொடங்கியுள்ளன. இரு நாட்களுக்கு முன்பு ஒரு விளம்பரப்பலகை சேதப்படுத்தப்பட்டுள்ளது. 

தாங்கள் இதற்காக பின்வாங்க போவதில்லை என்றும், அந்த விளம்பரங்கள் மூலம் தங்களுக்கு வந்த அழைப்புகளில் பெரும்பாலானவை பாசிடிவ்வாகவே இருந்ததாகவும், சுமார் பத்து சதவித அழைப்புகள் மட்டுமே தங்களை தாக்கக்கூடிய எண்ண அலைகளில் இருந்ததாவும் தியா முஹம்மத் தெரிவித்துள்ளார். 

மேலும், சேதப்படுத்தப்பட்ட அந்த பலகை விரைவிலேயே சரி செய்யப்படும் என்றும் கூறியுள்ளார். 

இந்நிறுவனத்தின் முதல் செயற்திட்டம் எதிர்ப்புகளை சந்திக்க ஆரம்பித்துள்ள நிலையில் இவர்களின் அடுத்தக்கட்ட நடவடிக்கை மேலும் பரபரப்பை ஏற்படுத்தலாம் என்று கருதப்படுகின்றது. 

அதாவது, நான்கு வார காலத்திற்கு, சிட்னியின் முக்கிய வழித்தடங்களில் ஓடும் சுமார் நாற்பது பேருந்துகள் தங்களது இஸ்லாமிய விளம்பரங்களை தாங்கி செல்லும் என்று அறிவித்துள்ளது இந்த அமைப்பு.

பேருந்துகளின் பின்புறத்திலும், பக்கவாட்டிலும் இருக்கும் இந்த விளம்பரங்கள், "இஸ்லாம் குறித்த கேள்விகளா? தொடர்பு கொள்ளுங்கள் இந்த எண்களில்" என்று இருக்குமாம். இது குறித்த மாதிரியை தன் தளத்தில் வெளியிட்டுள்ளது "My Peace".      

நீங்கள் மேலே பார்த்தது மட்டுமின்றி, தங்களின் அடுத்தக்கட்ட திட்டமாக, தொலைக்காட்சிகள் வழியாகவும் தங்களது இஸ்லாமிய விழிப்புணர்வு பிரச்சாரத்தை மேற்கொள்ள போவதாகவும் இந்த நிறுவனம் அறிவித்துள்ளது. 

இந்நிறுவனத்தின் வலைத்தளம் பல்வேறு தகவல்களை கொண்டதாக சிறப்பாக வடிவமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது (தள முகவரி கீழே கொடுக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது). தங்களது செயற்பாடுகளாக இவர்கள் கூறியுள்ளது, 

• இஸ்லாம் குறித்த தவறான புரிந்துணர்வுகளை கையாள்வது, 
• சக ஆஸ்திரேலியர்களுக்கு இஸ்லாம் பற்றி எடுத்து சொல்வது, 
• இஸ்லாம் குறித்த எவ்விதமான கேள்வியையும் முஸ்லிமல்லாதவர்கள் கேட்க முன்வருமாறு அழைப்பது,   
• குர்ஆன் மற்றும் இதர இஸ்லாமிய நூல்களை இலவசமாக அளிப்பது, 
• பள்ளிவாசல்களுக்கு முஸ்லிமல்லாதவர்களை அழைத்து செல்வது, 
• எந்தவொரு தலைப்பிலும் சொற்பொழிவாற்ற தயாரான நிலையில் அறிஞர்களை வைத்திருப்பது,

மேலே குறிப்பிட்டுள்ளவை மட்டுமின்றி புதிய முஸ்லிம்களுக்கு தேவையான உதவிகளை செய்வதில் மிக மும்முரமாக செயல்படுகின்றனர் இந்த இயக்கத்தினர். அல்ஹம்துலில்லாஹ். பெண்களுக்கான பகுதியும் மிக அழகாக உருவாக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. 

உலகளவில் பல இஸ்லாமிய இயக்கங்களை கண்டு நான் வியந்துண்டு. தங்கள் மார்க்கத்தின் மீதான ஆழ்ந்த பற்று, எவ்வித கேள்விக்கும் தங்களிடம் பதில் உண்டு என்ற அசராத நம்பிக்கை, அதனை வெளிப்படுத்தும் விதமான விவாதங்கள், நேர்த்தியான முறையில் வடிவமைப்பட்ட செயற்திட்டங்கள் என்று இந்த இயக்கங்கள் என்னை வியப்பில் ஆழ்த்தியுள்ளன. அந்த வரிசையில் இப்போது "My Peace"சும் சேர்ந்துள்ளது. மாஷாஅல்லாஹ்...

குறிப்பு: 

நாம் மேலே பார்த்தது போன்ற செயல்திட்டத்தை "Gain peace" என்ற அமைப்பு கடந்த சில வருடங்களாக அமெரிக்காவில் செயல்படுத்தி வருவது இங்கே நினைவுகூறத்தக்கது

அல்லாஹ்வே எல்லாம் அறிந்தவன்.
