Allah made us different presents children with abilities who choose to harness their focus on their capabilities with a growth mindset. Their environment is inclusive of support, understanding, and nurturing, which in turn helps foster gratitude, understanding, and compassion, with a willingness to strive and achieve. Nurturing a growth mindset can have some profound effects on this next generation. Eradicating bullying and replacing it with compassion and empathy will help develop these little Muslims into real game changers who will help revive this Ummah. Understanding that any form of disability is a gift from Allah (swt), regardless of the challenges you face, you can always strive for excellence. Gratitude and kindness is key to ensuring our children have the right mindset to foster relationships with compassion and understanding of the challenges around them and to develop a growth mindset and can-do attitude.
