While reported numbers remain below those seen during the peak of the first wave, recent reports indicate another deterioration of the situation, suggesting another wave may be on the horizon. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), the eastern region of the country in particular has experienced a sharp increase in COVID-19 cases and hospitalisations in recent weeks. Aside from the impact of the virus itself, the secondary effects of the pandemic are continuing to hit communities who had not yet recovered from the first wave.
Kabul remains the most affected part of the country in terms of confirmed cases however, due to the limited public health resources and testing capacity, as well as the absence of a national death register, confirmed cases and deaths from COVID-19 are likely to be under-reported in the country.
Hospitals and clinics continue to report challenges maintaining or expanding their facilities’ capacity to treat patients with COVID-19, whilst also maintaining essential health services. As WHO noted, when health systems like Afghanistan’s are overwhelmed, deaths both as a direct result of the outbreak and resulting from other preventable and treatable conditions increase dramatically.
COVID-19 has had grave consequences for people’s health and income, and the cost of basic essentials has increased dramatically, leaving at least a third of the population faced with food shortages and malnutrition on the rise. With levels similar to those seen during the 2018 drought, Afghanistan now has the second highest number of people in crisis or emergency food insecurity in the world, and close to one in two children under the age of five are predicted to face acute malnutrition this year. It is estimated that six times the number of people are now in need of humanitarian assistance, as compared to four years ago.
Concurrently, conflict, natural disasters and extreme weather have continued to effect and displace thousands across the country, compounding pre-existing issues faced by these families and the communities they settle in, and leaving them more vulnerable to serious consequences from COVID-19. Harsh winter conditions continue to cause suffering for families in inadequate shelter, and millions are struggling to get by amid soaring poverty driven by the economic shock of COVID-19.
The first batch of COVID-19 vaccination doses through the COVAX facility arrived in Afghanistan on 8th March, and the country has now received 968,000 doses of the vaccine – 468,000 from the COVAX facility and 500,000 directly from the government of India. However, vaccine rollout will be much slower in countries like Afghanistan than many others, with internally displaced families, returnees and people living in remote areas being particularly difficult to reach, and there is an urgent and continuing need for support to get communities through the many months they will need to wait.
Afghanaid’s response
Afghanaid has continued to take the necessary precautions to protect our staff and the communities we’re serving. At the start of the pandemic, we rapidly scaled-up our work to deliver life-saving support in response and adapted our existing work.
We procured personal protective equipment for our teams, so as to ensure we could continue working and provide as much support as possible. This has allowed us to work with communities across the country, including some of the most remote and hard-to-reach villages, to give men, women and children access to:
information and advice about COVID-19, hygiene and social distancing;
emergency food supplies;
hand washing stations;
complete family hygiene kits;
protective equipment;
safe work opportunities;
and long-term support.
We are also addressing the secondary impacts of the pandemic, including working with UNOCHA to help families to prepare for the cold weather, and with the World Food Programme to deliver long-term support to rural families who have been affected by a loss of jobs and disrupted food supply chains.
We are continuing to monitor the impacts on vulnerable families, which are exacerbating existing challenges and pushing households into desperate situations. Moving forward, we will continue to work with partners across the country to deliver assistance and support those who need it.
The novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak was declared a global pandemic on 11th March 2020 and is continuing to strain health systems worldwide. Afghanaid would like to send a message of solidarity to everyone in Afghanistan and the world over at this difficult time, and wishes everyone well.
How can you help people in Afghanistan?
Afghanaid is working incredibly hard to protect vulnerable communities in Afghanistan during this novel Coronavirus crisis. During challenging times, donations from our supporters are an absolutely vital resource for Afghanaid, and will help to ensure we can continue to reach those who need it most, and provide vital assistance to the most vulnerable.
As Afghanistan enters another harsh winter, families continue to face a devastating humanitarian and economic crisis. Make a donation and give the gift of a brighter future to a family in Afghanistan.DonateFundraise
We are working to achieve a peaceful and thriving Afghanistan.
Every day, our dedicated staff are on the ground providing life-saving support and long-term solutions for vulnerable communities. We need committed help to continue this work.

me. I wasn’t one of those little boys that liked the toy cars or the trains. Instead, I would rather have a toy plane. Since I was little until now, my mom and I have always used airplanes as our mode of transportation when taking long trips. It was that journey that sparked my interest in planes. In this paper, I am going to explain why I have always wanted to be a pilot and why I want to work for Delta Airlines. Flying is one of my favorite things to do when I travel. It’s something that I lookRead More
There are two sides to every story, and sometimes we forget to look at the other side. Before I picked up Pontius Pilate by Paul L. Maier, I can honestly say I didn’t care so much for Pilate. All I remember based on what I was taught was that Pilate didn’t want Christ’s blood on his hands, so he took the easy way out. As sad as it was, that was my only extensive knowledge about who Pilot was, and how he untimely got to that decision to wash his hands clean of the situation. Paul Maier did a fantasticRead More

With that, I can now confidently see myself as an airline pilot. Being from the Pacific Northwest, I would like to start with a local company, like Horizon Air and build from there. I am currently employed with Horizon Air and would also like to utilize there scholarship program and in return commit two years flying for them. From here I would likeRead More
I believe that the AP program is a good fit for me. It is good for me because I want to learn and become a pilot. Becoming a pilot is my biggest dream. I have always loved planes and I believe that for me to be able to become a pilot I should take this program. The AP program pushes students to their limits and goes beyond them. AP also helps students achieve their goals and become successful in life. I want to be challenged as much as possible so I can pass those challenges and achieve my goal.Read More
seize (an aircraft, ship, or vehicle) in transit and force it to go to a different destination or use it for ones own purpose. They have been relatively rare. The first recorded aircraft hijack took place on February 21, 1931, in Arequipa, Peru. The pilot Byron Richards was approached by armed revolutionaries who threatened him to take over the plane. But back then hijackers were trying to make a statement, get away, or to gain money. According to airsafe.com there were 11 known hijackings in AmericaRead More
dentist has not always been something I aspired to, when I was a child, I wanted to become a fighter pilot.

As I grew older, my passion to become a fighter pilot continued to increase and I realized that being a pilot incorporated many of the aspects I enjoyed at school and wanted for a career;Read More
Entering a male dominated field churns my stomach. With roughly 5% of female pilots in the aviation department, it is a terrifying thought as a woman. I wonder what challenges I will face on the path to pursue a career in aviation. The sexism, the wage gap, and the snarky comments saying women cannot become pilots are ideas that fill me with terror. Although it is intimidating, I know that University of Oklahoma is the perfect school, as they provide excellent and safe flight training, and are determinedRead More
I was initially drawn to West Point because I want to be a helicopter pilot. In sixth grade I went to Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama, and I participated in the aviation challenge. That experience caused me to want to become a pilot, and it helped show me that the military was a good path to take to become one. I believe that West Point is the best path to becoming a helicopter pilot for me. I’ve also known for a long time that I wanted to serve this country as a pilot. Patriotism definitelyRead More

Public policy is a set of decisions by governments and other political actors to influence, change, or frame a problem or issue that has been recognized as in the political realm by policy makers and/or the wider public. Scientific approaches toward public policies have proliferated over the postwar period as the size and scope of government interventions have continuously expanded. The study of public policy includes policy analysis or policy science, which identifies effective policy measures, policy instruments, which a government can employ, and the policy process, which analyses how a government comes to take a decision.
Public policy refers to any action taken by public bodies in order to influence highway safety. Although transport policy in general has several objectives, the focus in this chapter is on policy designed to improve safety. The role of traffic psychology in contributing to an effective road safety policy is discussed. The following main questions are addressed in this chapter:1.
What are the principal elements of road safety policy? At what stages of policy making can traffic psychology contribute?2.
What is the scope for improving road safety by applying knowledge gained in traffic psychology and related disciplines?
It is shown in this chapter that traffic psychology can make a major contribution to improving highway safety by informing public policy.
Geography can demonstrate its practical relevance by contributing to public policy that addresses problems in the real world. The relationship between policy work and the development of theories, ideas, concepts, and methods that form the core of the discipline is potentially mutually supportive but often it has been a source of tension. Most geographers believe that more attention needs to be given to enhancing the public policy contribution, although the extent of the shortfall perceived varies between those who advocate ‘public geography’ and those who adopt a narrow conception of how contributions to policy are made. Whatever form it takes, geographers tend to see that they offer ‘deep’ policy analysis, while policy makers often seek only a ‘shallow’ policy analysis.
Public policy expresses the goals, decisions, and actions adopted by a government for political, social, and economic management. There is an increasing need for policies to be formulated by establishing close connections with academics, the responsible politicians, and society. In the process to develop and implement public policies with a scientific approach, Sabatier, 1988 has focused his studies on the Advocacy Coalition Framework and Policy-Oriented Learning. In addition, approaching the territorial dimension from a theoretical framework has been a key element in providing geocybernetic solutions for public policies in over 60 projects developed based on this schema.
Public policy includes directly or indirectly making ethical judgments. Ethical decisions are taken mainly by policy makers by selection and reconciliation of interests represented by individuals, groups, and organizations. Public policy is based on the balancing individual and social values. From those value arise its objectives, principles, and styles of policy implementation and intervention. All choices and decisions in public policy on each stages of policy cycle are ethical judgments because they presuppose that some things are more important than other, that some actions will have positive and other will have negative impact on society. Policy debates can be more productive by using ethical approaches. Ethics enables a systematic analysis of the rules and standards as well as the selection of rational public decisions.
Public policy approaches to the prevention of body image problems are very new. However, even in the few years that national, state, and city governments have been articulating and implementing public policy initiatives in this field, some very creative and potentially valuable approaches have emerged. Governments have implemented legislation, voluntary industry Codes of Conduct and Charters, social marketing campaigns, and school-based and community initiatives. Although at present it is hard to quantify the effect of these approaches in preventing body image problems, when a government uses each of these approaches together in a concerted and maintained manner, guided by existing research, fundamental social and environmental changes are possible. Engaging governments in multilevel public policy initiatives to prevent body image problems holds the key to prevention on a population scale.
Public policies should be designed and implemented, whenever possible, using evidence as rigorous as possible. Urban interventions then should be no exception. In recent times, we have witnessed increasing efforts to transform information into knowledge, and thus help policymakers make better decisions. In this chapter, we will explore how public policy evaluation helps municipal governments tackle social problems and how big data can improve the design and implementation of more effective, efficient, and transparent policies.
The structure of this chapter is as follows: First, we describe what public policy evaluation is, what knowledge it produces, and how it can be used for designing and implementing better polices. Second, we describe the role of data in public policy and what new opportunities and challenges arise from big data in the context of urban interventions. Third, examples of evaluations that use big data to generate valuable insights for urban policies are shown. Finally, the chapter concludes by summarizing the main learnings and takeaways to leverage the power of big data to inform and support decision-making.
Public policy is as old as the history of human governance. All rulers, irrespective of the form of public rule, have sought to shape and manage the substantive order governed under their authority. Modern public policy composes a narrower domain. Co-extensive with the complex, and continuing, process of state formation (and de-formation) begun in late medieval and early modern Europe (Tilly 1975), public policy has come to refer more specifically both to what governments do as they transact with civil society, the economy, and states within a global state system and to the creation and deployment of knowledge about these sites of authoritative transactions. The semi-independent origins of policy knowledge and policy activity constitute my subject. I focus primarily on two formative moments in the West: (a) the early modern period marked by the growing concentration of state sovereignty over territory and people, and (b) the midnineteenth through to the early twentieth century when the ‘social question’ and unaccustomed levels and forms of international violence pressed to the fore. ‘Origins’ itself a word with a composite meaning. It refers both to the beginnings of a process and to the constituent elements of what comes next. The results of decisions taken at the critical junctures I discuss, set in motion developmental pathways that further defined the contours of modern public policy.
7 Impacts of Public Policies on the Fertility Transition
Public policies in the MENA countries provided the ideological and operational context for the fertility transition. During the period 1950–70, population issues in the AMENA countries were seen as long-term problems of secondary importance, neither pressing nor urgent (Yousif et al. 1996). The reproductive role of women was regarded more important than their education and participation in modern employment. This public policy stand was evident during the International Population Conference in Bucharest in 1974. Delegates from the AMENA countries invariably argued in support of development, as opposed to family planning, as the best method for resolving population problems. Ten years later, by 1984, the political stand of these governments had changed, and in 1994 several AMENA countries reached an advanced stage on issues of population policy and development. Also, government support to population policies and programs gained importance, albeit at different times, in the AMENA countries.
Public policy in some countries changed direction several times. In Egypt, for instance, the government was against the use of modern contraceptive methods during the 1960s and 1970s. Starting in 1980, the government has changed its stand to support family planning to regulate fertility and address population issues in the country. Its main challenge is in the rural areas, particularly in Upper Egypt, where fertility is highest and the potential for decline greatest.
Sudan and Iran provide other examples of countries with contradictory or vacillating public policies on population issues. The Sudan family planning program, which was progressing well during the 1970s and 1980s, has recently come to a standstill due to lack of government support. In Iran, the government’s opposition to family planning after the Islamic revolution in 1979 has now changed completely to the opposite (Courbage 1999). In the Gulf States public policies on population issues and family planning are in their infancy.
Changing Definition of “Quality-of-Life” Standards for Older Women Across the World
Public policies directly impact the quality of life of those within a society, and everyone is a key “stakeholder” in the process of establishing standards of aging well (Everingham, Lui, Bartlett, Warburton, & Cuthill, 2010). For example, self-reported medication usage for older women is an important issue of education and health care system tracking that needs social policy and practice reforms for the health of many generations (in Australia; Dolja-Gore, Pit, Parkinson, Young, & Byles, 2013). Over time, different generations of women within different cultures have experienced changing standards of quality of life. The active involvement and input of older women for the development and/or implementation of societal public policy is a necessity to ensure accurate and effective quality-of-life outcomes.
How to talk to your children about conflict and war
8 tips to support and comfort your children.
.
When conflict or war makes the headlines, it can cause feelings such as fear, sadness, anger and anxiety wherever you live.
Children always look to their parents for a sense of safety and security – even more so in times of crisis.
Here are some tips on how to approach the conversation with your child and to provide them with support and comfort.
1. Find out what they know and how they feel
Choose a time and place when you can bring it up naturally and your child is more likely to feel comfortable talking freely, such as during a family meal. Try to avoid talking about the topic just before bedtime.
A good starting point is to ask your child what they know and how they are feeling. Some children might know little about what is happening and not be interested in talking about it, but others might be worrying in silence. With younger children, drawing, stories and other activities may help to open up a discussion.
Kids can discover the news in many ways, so it’s important to check in on what they’re seeing and hearing. It’s an opportunity to reassure them and potentially correct any inaccurate information they might have come across whether online, on TV, at school or from friends.
A constant stream of upsetting images and headlines can make it feel like the crisis is all around us. Younger children may not distinguish between images on screen and their own personal reality and may believe they’re in immediate danger, even if the conflict is happening far away. Older children might have seen worrying things on social media and be scared about how events might escalate.
It’s important not to minimize or dismiss their concerns. If they ask a question that might seem extreme to you, such as “Are we all going to die?”, reassure them that is not going to happen, but also try to find out what they have heard and why they are worried about that happening. If you can understand where the worry is coming from, you are more likely to be able to reassure them.
Be sure to acknowledge their feelings and assure them that whatever they are feeling is natural. Show that you’re listening by giving them your full attention and remind them that they can talk to you or another trusted adult whenever they like.
2. Keep it calm and age-appropriate
Children have a right to know what’s going on in the world, but adults also have a responsibility to keep them safe from distress. You know your child best. Use age-appropriate language, watch their reactions, and be sensitive to their level of anxiety.
It is normal if you feel sad or worried about what is happening as well. But keep in mind that kids take their emotional cues from adults, so try not to overshare any fears with your child. Speak calmly and be mindful of your body language, such as facial expressions.
Use age-appropriate language, watch their reactions, and be sensitive to their level of anxiety.
As much as you can, reassure your children that they are safe from any danger. Remind them that many people are working hard around the world to stop the conflict and find peace.
Remember that it’s OK to not have the answer to every question. You can say that you need to look it up or use it as an opportunity with older children to find the answers together. Use websites of reputable news organizations or international organizations like UNICEF and the UN. Explain that some information online isn’t accurate and the importance of finding reliable sources.
3. Spread compassion, not stigma
Conflict can often bring with it prejudice and discrimination, whether against a people or country. When talking to your children, avoid labels like “bad people” or “evil” and instead use it as an opportunity to encourage compassion, such as for the families forced to flee their homes.
Even if a conflict is happening in a distant country, it can fuel discrimination on your doorstep. Check that your children are not experiencing or contributing to bullying. If they have been called names or bullied at school, encourage them to tell you or an adult whom they trust.
Remind your children that everyone deserves to be safe at school and in society. Bullying and discrimination is always wrong and we should each do our part to spread kindness and support each other.
4. Focus on the helpers
It’s important for children to know that people are helping each other with acts of courage and kindness. Find positive stories, such as the first responders assisting people, or young people calling for peace.
The sense of doing something, no matter how small, can often bring great comfort.
See if your child would like to participate in taking positive action. Perhaps they could draw a poster or write a poem for peace, or maybe you could participate in a local fundraiser or join a petition. The sense of doing something, no matter how small, can often bring great comfort.
As you end your conversation, it’s important to make sure that you are not leaving your child in a state of distress. Try to assess their level of anxiety by watching their body language, considering whether they’re using their usual tone of voice and watching their breathing.
Remind them that you care and that you’re there to listen and support whenever they’re feeling worried.
As news of the conflict continues, you should continue to check in with your child to see how they’re doing. How are they feeling? Do they have any new questions or things they would like to talk about with you?
If your child seems worried or anxious about what’s happening, keep an eye out for any changes in how they behave or feel, such as stomachaches, headaches, nightmares or difficulties sleeping.
Children have different reactions to adverse events and some signs of distress might not be so obvious. Younger children may become clingier than usual, while teens might show intense grief or anger. Many of these reactions only last for a short time and are normal reactions to stressful events. If these reactions last for a prolonged period of time, your child may need specialist support.
You can help them reduce stress through doing activities like belly breathing together:
Take 5 deep breaths, spend 5 seconds breathing in and 5 seconds breathing out, breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth
Explain that when your child inhales, they are blowing up their tummy softly like a balloon, and when they exhale the air is going slowly out of the balloon again.
Be ready to talk to your child if they ever bring up the subject. If it’s just before bedtime, finish up with something positive such as reading a favourite story to help them to sleep well.
Be mindful of how exposed your children are to the news while it’s full of alarming headlines and upsetting images. Consider switching off the news around younger children. With older children, you could use it as an opportunity to discuss how much time they spend consuming news and what news sources they trust. Also consider how you talk about the conflict with other adults if your children are within hearing distance.
As much as possible, try to create positive distractions like playing a game or going for a walk together.
8. Take care of yourself
You’ll be able to help your kids better if you’re coping, too. Children will pick up on your own response to the news, so it helps them to know that you are calm and in control.
If you’re feeling anxious or upset, take time for yourself and reach out to other family, friends and trusted people. Be mindful of how you’re consuming news: Try identifying key times during the day to check in on what is happening rather than constantly being online. As much as you are able, make some time to do things that help you relax and recuperate.
How to treat your wife in islam quotes? Although many Muslim Husband and Wife relationships may right now be in failing and on a fast track to divorce and its terrible consequences, there are many ways to put their marriage back on the right track if they are sincere in their desire to reconcile thier husband wife relationship. The following principles can be used by Muslims whose marriages are already in trouble or by Muslims who would like to avoid trouble in their marriage.
Examples of Negative Muslim Husband Wife Relationship
Many Muslim husbands and wives treat each other like adversaries rather than partners. The husband feels that he is the boss, and whatever he says goes. The wife feels that she must squeeze everything she can out of her husband. Some wives never show their husband that they are satisfied with anything he does or buys for them in order to trick him into doing and buying more. They make him feel like a failure if he does not give them the lifestyle that their friends and families enjoy. Some husbands speak very harshly to their wives, humiliate them, and even physically abuse them. Their wives have no voice or opinion in the family.
Marriage In The Eyes of Allah
It is very sad that this husband wife relationship which Allah has established for the good has been made a source of contention, deception, trickery, tyranny, humiliation, and abuse. This is not the way marriage is supposed to be.
Allah described marriage very differently in the Holy Quran: ‘. . . He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts) . . . ” (Holy Quran 30:21, Yusuf Ali Translation).
1. Do not be a Tyrant
Regardless of whether or not Islam has made the husband the head of the household, Muslims are not supposed to be dictators and tyrants. We are taught to treat our wives well. The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) was reported to have said: ‘The most perfect Muslim in the matter of faith is one who has excellent behavior; and the best among you are those who behave best towards their wives” (From Mishkat al-Masabih, No. 0278(R) Transmitted by Tirmidhi). In the khutba hajjatul wida, Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) clearly stated how men should treat their wives.
2. Be Partners in the Decision Making Process
Follow the principle of ‘Shura,” and make decisions as a family. There will be much more harmony in the family when decisions are not imposed and everyone feels that they had some part in making them.
3. Never be Abusive
Never be emotionally, mentally, or physically abusive to your spouse. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, never mistreated his wives. He is reported to have said: ‘How could they beat their women in daytime as slaves and then sleep with them in the night?”
4. Be Careful of Your Words
Be very careful what you say when you are upset. Sometimes you will say things that you would never say when you were not angry. If you are angry, wait until you calm down before continuing the conversation.
5. Show Affection
Show affection for your mate. Be kind, gentle, and loving.
5. Be Your Spouse’s Friend
Show interest in your mate’s life. Too often, we live in the same house but know nothing about each other’s lives. It would be great if the husband and wife could work together for the same cause or on the same project. They could perhaps establish a husband/wife prison ministry, take care of orphans in their home, or lead an Islamic weekend class to better their husband wife relationship.
6. Show Appreciation
Show appreciation for what your spouse does for the family. Never make your husband feel that he is not doing good enough for the family or that you are not satisfied with his work or his efforts, unless, of course, he is truly lazy and not even trying to provide for the family. The Prophet (SAWS) was reported to have said: ‘On the Day of Judgment, God will not look upon the woman who has been ungrateful to her husband.” (where is this hadith found) Show your wife that you appreciate her. If she takes care of the house and the children, don’t take it for granted. It is hard work, and no one likes to feel unappreciated.
7. Work Together in the House
The Prophet is known to have helped his wives in the house. And if the Prophet (SAWS) was not above doing housework, modern Muslim husbands shouldn’t feel that they are.
8. Communication is Important
Communication, Communication, Communication! This is the big word in counseling. And it should be. Husbands and wives need to talk to each other. It is better to deal with problems early and honestly than to let them pile up until an explosion occurs.
9. Forget Past Problems
Don’t bring up past problems once they have been solved.
10. Live Simply
Don’t be jealous of those who seem to be living a more luxurious life than your family. The ‘rizq” is from Allah (SWT). In order to develop the quality of contentment, look at those people who have less than you, not those who have more. Thank Allah (SWT) for the many blessings in your life.
11. Give Your Spouse Time Alone
If your mate doesn’t want to be with you all the time, it doesn’t mean he or she doesn’t love you. People need to be alone for various reasons. Sometimes they want to read, to think about their problems, or just to relax. Don’t make them feel that they are committing a sin.
12. Admit Your Mistakes
When you make a mistake, admit it. When your mate makes a mistake, excuse him or her easily. If possible, never go to sleep angry with each other.
13. Physical Relationship is Important
Be available to your mate sexually, and don’t let your sexual relationship be characterized by selfishness. The Prophet was reported to have said: ‘It is not appropriate that you fall upon your wives like a beast but you must send a message of love beforehand.”
14. Have Meals Together
Try to eat together as a family when possible. Show the cook and the dishwasher, whether it is the husband or the wife, appreciation for his or her efforts. The Prophet did not complain about food that was put before him.
15. Be Mindful of Your discussion Topics
Never discuss with others things about your marriage that your spouse wouldn’t like you to discuss, unless there is an Islamic reason to do so. Some husbands and wives, believe it or not, complain to others about their mate’s physical appearance. This is a recipe for disaster of husband wife relationship. Information about your intimate relations should be kept between you and your spouse.
Many of us treat our spouses in ways that we would never treat others. With others, we try to be polite, kind, and patient. With our spouses, we often do not show these courtesies. Of course, we are usually with our spouses at our worst times — when we are tired and frustrated after a hard day. After a bad day at the office, husbands usually come home angry and on edge. The wife has probably also had a hard day with the children and the housework. Wives and husbands should discuss this potential time bomb so that if they are short-tempered with each other during these times, they will understand the reasons rather than automatically thinking that their spouse no longer loves them.
Good marriages require patience, kindness, humility, sacrifice, empathy, love, understanding, forgiveness, and hard work. Following these principles should help any marriage to improve. The essence of them all can be summed up in one sentence: Always treat your spouse the way you would like to be treated. If you follow this rule, your marriage will have a much greater chance for success. If you discard this rule, failure is just around the corner. This is how to treat your wife in islam.
My wife wants to leave me since I am jobless and not earning anything right now. I left the job in Qatar to spend some time with my wife. But things are all changed when I returned back to India. What should I do? What are the references in Islam for this kind of treatment by my wife? Please help
what about when your husbands ages very quickly and forgets to be your friend and says i wont be what i was years ago ( when we got married) hes a good father but just has forgotten im stil a girl and hes friend who needs to reminded he can be a friend aswell as a husband and grow together..
Hi am been married for 11 years am not perfect no one is but I try my very best many time to show my husband love , kindness,gentle and I do show him love but he stop showing it to me some time any little I do make he upset . I really don’t know sometime I do think about walking away but then I look on my children.but emotional am breaken mentally am tried for it.
What abt your husband disrespects your parents and in returns ask you to respect his parents..for years I never done such lke things only due to my husband so that he may treat my parents as he does for his ..in this situation wt can a wife do..
do it yourself. it’s not only her responsibility. spend more time with your kids and take responsibility for teaching them also. then maybe she will see what you’re doing and join in it.
just have a normal conversation with her wdym divorce her just like that. also, depending on your kid’s age you should wait a bit before explaining them that kind of thing,believe it or not but telling a kid who’s less than 8yo that they’ll burn in hell forever if they don’t respect their parents isn’t the best for the mental health for a kid.
im just a random internet person tho,but I’d suggest you to teach your kids for now about the loving,caring,forgiving, rightful Allah who protects him from hardship and gave him such an amazing family,teaching his young mind about fearing Allah as if he didn’t love him will just make the kid go out of the path of islam cause hey, everything bad that happens to me is Allah’s fault right? just be gentle with kids, they’re a beautiful blessing.
The most disliked act in the eyes of Allah is divorce.
Speak to your wife about how important it is to instill Islamic values in children and maybe sign her up for Islamic classes so she can learn and understand islam.
brother I think you meant to the withholder of wealth (as this is the most disliked act in the eyes of Allah (s.w.t), also divorce is not the most disliked act in the eyes of Allah

How to treat your wife in islam quotes? Although many Muslim Husband and Wife relationships may right now be in failing and on a fast track to divorce and its terrible consequences, there are many ways to put their marriage back on the right track if they are sincere in their desire to reconcile thier husband wife relationship. The following principles can be used by Muslims whose marriages are already in trouble or by Muslims who would like to avoid trouble in their marriage.
Examples of Negative Muslim Husband Wife Relationship
Many Muslim husbands and wives treat each other like adversaries rather than partners. The husband feels that he is the boss, and whatever he says goes. The wife feels that she must squeeze everything she can out of her husband. Some wives never show their husband that they are satisfied with anything he does or buys for them in order to trick him into doing and buying more. They make him feel like a failure if he does not give them the lifestyle that their friends and families enjoy. Some husbands speak very harshly to their wives, humiliate them, and even physically abuse them. Their wives have no voice or opinion in the family.
Marriage In The Eyes of Allah
It is very sad that this husband wife relationship which Allah has established for the good has been made a source of contention, deception, trickery, tyranny, humiliation, and abuse. This is not the way marriage is supposed to be.
Allah described marriage very differently in the Holy Quran: ‘. . . He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts) . . . ” (Holy Quran 30:21, Yusuf Ali Translation).
1. Do not be a Tyrant
Regardless of whether or not Islam has made the husband the head of the household, Muslims are not supposed to be dictators and tyrants. We are taught to treat our wives well. The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) was reported to have said: ‘The most perfect Muslim in the matter of faith is one who has excellent behavior; and the best among you are those who behave best towards their wives” (From Mishkat al-Masabih, No. 0278(R) Transmitted by Tirmidhi). In the khutba hajjatul wida, Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) clearly stated how men should treat their wives.
2. Be Partners in the Decision Making Process
Follow the principle of ‘Shura,” and make decisions as a family. There will be much more harmony in the family when decisions are not imposed and everyone feels that they had some part in making them.
3. Never be Abusive
Never be emotionally, mentally, or physically abusive to your spouse. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, never mistreated his wives. He is reported to have said: ‘How could they beat their women in daytime as slaves and then sleep with them in the night?”
4. Be Careful of Your Words
Be very careful what you say when you are upset. Sometimes you will say things that you would never say when you were not angry. If you are angry, wait until you calm down before continuing the conversation.
5. Show Affection
Show affection for your mate. Be kind, gentle, and loving.
5. Be Your Spouse’s Friend
Show interest in your mate’s life. Too often, we live in the same house but know nothing about each other’s lives. It would be great if the husband and wife could work together for the same cause or on the same project. They could perhaps establish a husband/wife prison ministry, take care of orphans in their home, or lead an Islamic weekend class to better their husband wife relationship.
6. Show Appreciation
Show appreciation for what your spouse does for the family. Never make your husband feel that he is not doing good enough for the family or that you are not satisfied with his work or his efforts, unless, of course, he is truly lazy and not even trying to provide for the family. The Prophet (SAWS) was reported to have said: ‘On the Day of Judgment, God will not look upon the woman who has been ungrateful to her husband.” (where is this hadith found) Show your wife that you appreciate her. If she takes care of the house and the children, don’t take it for granted. It is hard work, and no one likes to feel unappreciated.
7. Work Together in the House
The Prophet is known to have helped his wives in the house. And if the Prophet (SAWS) was not above doing housework, modern Muslim husbands shouldn’t feel that they are.
8. Communication is Important
Communication, Communication, Communication! This is the big word in counseling. And it should be. Husbands and wives need to talk to each other. It is better to deal with problems early and honestly than to let them pile up until an explosion occurs.
9. Forget Past Problems
Don’t bring up past problems once they have been solved.
10. Live Simply
Don’t be jealous of those who seem to be living a more luxurious life than your family. The ‘rizq” is from Allah (SWT). In order to develop the quality of contentment, look at those people who have less than you, not those who have more. Thank Allah (SWT) for the many blessings in your life.
11. Give Your Spouse Time Alone
If your mate doesn’t want to be with you all the time, it doesn’t mean he or she doesn’t love you. People need to be alone for various reasons. Sometimes they want to read, to think about their problems, or just to relax. Don’t make them feel that they are committing a sin.
12. Admit Your Mistakes
When you make a mistake, admit it. When your mate makes a mistake, excuse him or her easily. If possible, never go to sleep angry with each other.
13. Physical Relationship is Important
Be available to your mate sexually, and don’t let your sexual relationship be characterized by selfishness. The Prophet was reported to have said: ‘It is not appropriate that you fall upon your wives like a beast but you must send a message of love beforehand.”
14. Have Meals Together
Try to eat together as a family when possible. Show the cook and the dishwasher, whether it is the husband or the wife, appreciation for his or her efforts. The Prophet did not complain about food that was put before him.
15. Be Mindful of Your discussion Topics
Never discuss with others things about your marriage that your spouse wouldn’t like you to discuss, unless there is an Islamic reason to do so. Some husbands and wives, believe it or not, complain to others about their mate’s physical appearance. This is a recipe for disaster of husband wife relationship. Information about your intimate relations should be kept between you and your spouse.
Many of us treat our spouses in ways that we would never treat others. With others, we try to be polite, kind, and patient. With our spouses, we often do not show these courtesies. Of course, we are usually with our spouses at our worst times — when we are tired and frustrated after a hard day. After a bad day at the office, husbands usually come home angry and on edge. The wife has probably also had a hard day with the children and the housework. Wives and husbands should discuss this potential time bomb so that if they are short-tempered with each other during these times, they will understand the reasons rather than automatically thinking that their spouse no longer loves them.
Good marriages require patience, kindness, humility, sacrifice, empathy, love, understanding, forgiveness, and hard work. Following these principles should help any marriage to improve.

If you follow this rule, your marriage will have a much greater chance for success. If you discard this rule, failure is just around the corner. This is how to treat your wife in islam.

As we head into winter, you may have a sniffly child under two years old at home. Is it just a cold? Or could it be COVID?
You may be tempted to reach into the cupboard for a rapid antigen test to find out. But some manufacturers say their COVID tests aren’t suitable for children under two.
Can you use a test intended for adults or older children? How do you test a wriggling or grumpy small child anyway? We’re infection control and child health researchers. Here are our tips.
Of the 47 different rapid antigen tests authorised for home use in Australia at the time of writing, most (57%) state they are not suitable for children under two. This leaves 20 tests that are.
You can check the list on the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) website to see if the test you have at home is one of them.
Just because a test isn’t approved for a particular age doesn’t necessarily mean it doesn’t work at all. It usually means the test has not been tested, or its use determined, for that age. But try to use a test approved for under twos if you can.
However, rapid antigen tests are generally not as accurate in children as they are in adults. They are:
highly specific – rapid antigen tests for children have high specificity. This means if the test is done correctly, it is unlikely to say your child is positive if it is not
but not as sensitive – rapid antigen tests are less sensitive in children than adults. In other words, they’re not as good at detecting if a child has COVID. But tests are more likely to correctly detect COVID if the child has symptoms.
Of the 20 tests approved for use in under twos, 16 use nasal swabs and four sample saliva.
The accuracy of different sampling methods in children differs by viral variant. While it was once thought nasal swabs were more accurate in children, this may not necessarily be the case with the Omicron variant.
There’s preliminary evidence, which has yet to be independently verified, saliva swabs may be better able to detect Omicron. So we’ll see how the evidence develops.
Tests that use nasal swabs may be more accurate. But that may depend on the viral variant. Shutterstock
Taking a saliva sample may not be as straightforward as you think.
Depending on the test, your child may need to cough (several times, on demand) and spit into a tube. Or after you swab your child’s tongue and mouth, your child will need to keep the spongy tip of the swab in their mouth for a few minutes, without sucking or biting it. So getting an under two-year-old to cooperate is unlikely.
If you do go down this route you can use a tongue depressor to flatten the tongue to take the sample. You can buy these from a pharmacy.
But with a bit of preparation (and an extra pair of hands) you should be able to use a nasal test on a young child. You should be able to do this without causing pain or distress, a common worry for parents considering COVID testing their child.
Understand what the COVID test involves and plan to have the resources you need.
As you take the test components out of the packet, remember to keep them out of reach of your child. The chemicals can be toxic if swallowed, or can cause skin and eye irritation. Parents should also ensure small children don’t swallow test components, such as small bits of plastic.
Holding a favourite toy or blanket may help your child relax. Shutterstock
It’s also helpful to have two adults: one to perform the test and the other to hold and support the child.
Distraction helps take your child’s mind off the test by concentrating on something more pleasurable. Young children can be easily distracted by listening to a favourite song. So have a song ready on your phone.
For toddlers, it can help to have another adult to provide more engaging distraction such as watching a video on a phone or tablet, or switching on a light-up toy.
Holding a favourite toy or blanket may also help your child relax.
How do I actually take the sample?
One adult can use a secure hugging hold to reduce movement during the test while the other adult takes the sample.
The adult holding the child sits the child upright on their lap and holds them close to make them feel secure. They cross one arm across the child’s body and place the other hand on the child’s forehead.
If you’re testing the child by yourself, you can wrap them in a blanket to hold them still while you take the sample.
Staying calm yourself communicates to your child they are safe. Maintain a steady voice and breathe calmly during the test.
Slowly insert the tip of the swab inside the nose for about 1cm or until you meet resistance. Angle it along the base of the inside of the nose horizontally rather than pointing it upwards as you insert it (go low).
There is at least one nasal test that provides a smaller swab for young children so check the TGA site if you wish to use it.
Children’s memories of medical tests can influence how they respond next time. So, as your young child may need another rapid antigen test in the future, finish on a positive note.
Play with your child after the test and provide positive reinforcement. Give your toddler a simple reward, such as a stamp or sticker.
If the test is unsuccessful, give your child a chance to recover before trying again.
However, if you feel anxious about performing the test, or repeating it, seek the support of a health professional. Every test should be the best possible experience for your child to avoid unnecessary distress.

Doctors are often called “life saviors.” As medical professionals, they diagnose patients and prescribe the appropriate treatment for their ailments. Without medical intervention, many patients would suffer gravely. With the growing advancement in medical technology, the work of doctors has become more efficient and able to tackle illnesses that come their way. With a very demanding job, they work around the clock to treat patients to save lives. They put their life on the line and treat even the most life-threatening diseases.
The field of medicine is vast, and doctors specialize in a particular area. Doctors with such specializations include oncologists, pediatricians, cardiologists, neurologists, general physicians, dermatologists, gynecologists, and psychiatrists. Doctors with specialties receive training in a specific field of medicine to deal with complex nature problems.
Rigorous training in the field of medical science is the prerequisite to becoming a doctor. In India, pursuing medicine is very common among students. They must take science subjects, including biology in grade XI and XII. Students must pursue their MBBS, which is for five years. To apply to medical colleges and universities in India, one must take the NEET or National Eligibility cum Entrance Test. This test is also applicable to those who want to pursue dental or veterinary science. Some universities, such as AIIMS and JIPMER, have their entrance tests. In India, along with allopathic doctors who specialize in Ayurveda and homeopathy, have clinics and practices. Ayurveda is one of the oldest medical methods in India. Ayurvedic doctors make use of herbal medicines to cure patients.
However, the healthcare system in India faces many problems. Healthcare is not cheap. The private sector sets up hospitals in major cities, but the treatment is expensive. Tests as simple as blood tests cost is very high. These costs cannot be incurred by daily wage workers who have to go to public or government hospitals. These hospitals lack equipment and basic amenities, which delays proper treatment.
Doctors take advantage of the patient’s lack of knowledge and sometimes prescribed tests that may not be required to earn money. They specify an unnecessary amount of medicines, which causes the patient to shell out a lot of money. The availability of doctors in rural areas s another issue as the profession has become more monetary driven. People in villages do not receive proper treatment as doctors prefer to reside in cities where they can make more money. There have been many cases with doctors who hold fake degrees. This practice poses a significant danger to a patient’s life.
In India, there is a lack of accountability and widespread corruption in the medical field. Doctors dupe their patients trust them thinking they have the patient’s best interest at hand. The profession of a doctor is a sacred one. Their job saves millions, and thus its integrity must not be compromised.
Every doctor takes the Hippocratic Oath, and through this oath, they swear to follow ethics laid down for medical practices. We commemorate National Doctor’s Day on 1st July to honor the contributions of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy and the doctors.
