"Another wisdom that should be modeled is love for Allah must be based on absolute faith to obey His order in spite of sacrificing the most lovable one," Ustadz Awaludin said.
Faith and belief must be preached by parents to children to believe in order of Allah. Also, Teacher has a potential role to preach students to believe and carry out His word.
