First this psychological and spiritual energy must not be weaken as they have great example who inspire them strength and determination, such as the Lady Az-Zahra and Lady Zaynab (peace be upon both of them) who have lost their beloved ones. So, the energy of the woman who has lost her husband and should take care of her children is an energy that can face the enemies and destroy them."
"Second point is urging these children to never leave their studies and stressing on their education, as during his studies he has to bear his own responsibility with the help of their families, especially their mother, to be patient in front of the financial need and we urge the wealthy brothers to bear the responsibility in presenting the hel and a better life for the others, which is a great rewarded act in the path of God.And there is no excuse for those who neglect this issue!" the he continues: "Dear respected mothers, we have lot of hopes on you, and we wish your children a bright future through the good education."
