Advices for pregnancy

During pregnancy one should be extra careful with regards to abstaining from sins and evil acts such as watching television, listening to music etc. or any form of disobedience, as this will have a negative impact on the fetus.

Refrain from excessively utilizing computers and cell phones as these cause the mind of the child to be over-stimulated and consequently weak-minded children are born.

Eat healthy food during pregnancy.

Some Mashaaikh advise that pregnant mothers should consume a red apple daily. This results in the child having noble character and a happy temperament. The apple should be eaten without it being cut with a knife.

One should always dress appropriately ensuring that one is properly covered, or else it will have an adverse effect on the child.
