Conditions that must be fulfilled before striking a child | Sheikh Uthaymeen rahimahullah
1 – أنْ يكونَ الصغيرُ قابلًا للتأديب، فلا يضرب مَنْ لا يعرف المراد بالضرب.
1- That the young one is capable of being disciplined, so do not strike those who do not know the purpose of the striking.
2 – أنْ يكونَ التأديب ممَّنْ له ولايةٌ عليه.
2- That the disciplinary action is taken by those who are responsible over the child.
3 – أن لا يسرف في ذلك كميةً أو كيفيةً أو نوعًا أو موضعًا إلى غير ذلك.
3- That it does not become excessive in amount, manner, form, position etc.
4 – أنْ يقع من الصغير ما يستحق التأديب عليه.
4- That which requires disciplinary action has taken place from the child.
5 – أنْ يقصد تأديبَهُ لا الانتقام لنفسه، فإن قصد الانتقام لم يكنْ مؤدبًا، بل منتصراً.
5- That he seeks to discipline (the child) - not to take revenge for oneself; because if he seeks to take revenge then he is not acting as a discipliner, rather he is seeking vengeance.
[Al-Qawl al-Mufīd ‘alā Kitāb at-Tawhīd by Shaykh Muḥammad bin Ṣāliḥ al-ʿUthaymīn rahimahullāh, P. 671]

No matter how old we are, even if there are children who care and love us, the love of a parent is still different. May Allah grant our parents the highest level of paradise. Aameen❤️
Al-Hasan al-Basri رحمه الله said:
“Have dinner with your mother, be kind to her, sit with her so that her eyes find comfort by way of you.
All of this is more beloved to me than making a (recommended) Hajj.”

WHEN PARENTS GET OLD ...
Let them grow old with the same love that they let you grow ...
let them speak and tell repeated stories with the same patience and interest that they heard yours as a child ...
let them overcome, like so many times when they let you win ...
let them enjoy their friends just as they let you …
let them enjoy the talks with their grandchildren, because they see you in them ...
let them enjoy living among the objects that have accompanied them for a long time, because they suffer when they feel that you tear pieces of this life away ...
let them be wrong, like so many times you have been wrong and they didn’t embarrass you by correcting you ...
LET THEM LIVE and try to make them happy the last stretch of the path they have left to go; give them your hand, just like they gave you their hand when you started your path!
(“Honor your mother and father and your LIFE will be full of Blessings..")

Some notes regarding television
Research has found that children spend an average of three to four hours watching television each day. In a 65-year lifespan, that means s/he will have spent nine of those years in front of a box. With these statistics, we realize that children spend significant amounts of time in the fictional world, engaging with this virtual world often more than they do in the real world. It suddenly becomes worrisome when you begin to realize this fact and understand its implications. Television viewing is harmful to the intellectual, psychological, and social development of children. Even more frightening is that children may be harming their souls at a very young age; often never to recover their purity and wholesomeness again.
Dangers to intellectual, psychological, and social development
When a child is born, s/he possesses all of the brain cells (or neutrons) that s/he will have for his or her lifetime, although these cells are not yet fully developed. This progression occurs early in life though interaction with others, stimulation from the outside world, and love and care of a parent. Television has actually been found to be harmful for the process, not allowing the brain to complete its full development. This is because television viewing is a passive activity, not an active one. The American Academy of Pediatrics has itself provided a warning that children under two years of age should not be allowed to watch any television, primarily for this reason. Much of the development occurs early in childhood, but it does continue into adolescence, so this applies to children of all ages.

The Father's Role in Selecting a Good Name for his Child
One of the first responsibilities of the father when he has a child is to give him or her a proper name. A good name has a nice meaning and bears dignity. The Prophet (ﷺ) urged us to give the newborn a good name and instructed us to avoid a bad name that might have an improper meaning [and reflect badly on the child].

For you my son!:
These rakaat (units of prayer) can save the future of one’s children!
For Abdullah ibn Masud used to pray during the night while his little son was sleeping, and he would look at him and say:
“For your sake, my son!”
And he would cry and recite His words, exalted and high:
وكان أبوهما صالحاً…
“And their father was a righteous man…”
(Quran 18:82)

A child who is obedient and on deen is a GIFT FROM ALLAH. Give gratitude where it's due. It's not your parenting. Many excellent and exemplary parents are tested with disobedient and harsh children. Children who have no rehma for their parents or guardians.
If your children are a coolness of your eyes - it's Allah's gift.
Alhumdulillah!
Reflect on the story of Nuh (aleyhi salaam). I don't want to undermine efforts of good Muslim parents but don't let the blessings of good children make you arrogant or judgy about someone else's parenting.
Majority of Muslim parents are trying their best.
And as Allah says, sometimes children are a test.
And know that your properties and your children are but a trial and that Allah has with Him a great reward.
{Surah Al-'Anfāl 8: Verse 28}
Parents who are being tested with children, don't blame yourself. Continue to guide with kindness, love and make dua. <3

Uphold the Rights of your Father not just on Father's Day but every day!
The Rights Of The Father Upon His Son
Shaykh Hammād Al-Ansārī رحمه الله narrated that Al-Layth Ibn Sa'ad رحمه الله said:
"The father has ten rights over his son:
1. When he needs food, he feeds him.
2. When he needs clothing, he clothes him if he is able to and this is some of the explanation of Allāh’s statement, 'Behave with them kindly in the world.' [31:15].
3. When one of his parents needs his service, he serves them.
4. When he calls him, he replies and attends to him.
5. When he commands him to do an affair, he obeys him as long as it is not an act of disobedience to Allāh or backbiting.
6. To speak with him with kind and lenient speech.
7. To not address him by his name.
8. To walk behind him.
9. To love for him what he loves for himself and dislike for him what he dislikes upon himself.
10. To supplicate for mercy for him.”

TEN THINGS YOU MUST NOT DO WITH YOUR CHILD
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
1. Screaming
Some say its worst than beating, and leaves one with long-term mental and emotional scars. Remember, the Prophet ﷺ never raised his voice on a child, women, a friend or otherwise.
2. Blaming
Blaming weakens relations, lowers self-esteem and prompts children to be on the defense, even when they haven’t done something wrong. Anas b. Malik, then a 10 year old child, said: “I served the Prophet ﷺ for nine years. He never said about anything I did, why I did that, or about anything I didn’t do, why didn’t you.”
3. Nonstop Orders
Orders and instructions, without without first convincing or persuading, turn the child into a robot and this is not healthy. When growing up, they blindly emulate and obey any authority, regardless of its values.
4. Threatening
Threatening is used because it’s a quick fix for resistance, but not a solution in the long run. Any attitude driven by [just] fear is hypocritical, and does not indicate real change.
5. Sarcasm
Making fun of a child is an unacceptable behavior in Islam: “O you who believe let not a group scoff at another group… “(49:11). Mocking a child hurts their sense of worth and self-esteem.
6. Cursing
Cursing teaches the child cursing, which he will use against others, including relatives, friends and parents. The hadith says: “A believer is never a defamer nor a curser nor coarse nor obscene.”
7. Comparing
Never compare your child to anyone, especially siblings. Comparing creates jealousy, anger and [puts them] on the defense.
8. Continuous Advising
The normal attention span is 3 to 5 minutes per year of a child’s age. Therefore, a 2-year-old should be able to concentrate on a particular task for at least 6 minutes, and a child entering kindergarten should be able to concentrate for at least 15 minutes. In the hadith “The Prophet used to take care of us by preaching during [some] days [and not others] fearing that we may get bored.”
9. Mistrust
Not giving the child the benefit of doubt weakens mutual trust, shuts frank communication and hurts self-confidence.
10. Beating
In most cases, beating a child is about parents venting anger than wisely and calmly wanting to improve a behavior. Beating, similar to a pain killer, is a temporary fix only for the parent, not a cure for the child. It creates trauma and a coward personality, which will continue to do bad things as long as “nobody is watching”.

Some Muslim families will watch a movie full of shirk ,then tell the kids to close their eyes in a panic if a kissing scene comes
Yes Zina is bad ,you done correct to get them to turn away
However it's important to seek knowledge of your Deen most importantly Aqeedah
If you truly understood Tawheed and Shirk, you wouldn't let them watch such filth to begin with, because shirk is the worst sin ,yet most think it's ok to watch movies full of it
The same goes for education,everyone is checking books and the curriculum now to make sure the kids aren't being taught sexual stuff or the many colours ,I agree but you should be more vigilant in checking for disbelief and Shirk .
Many will pull the kids out of sex education lessons
Yet let them join in with Xmas
Like I said good that you're doing that ,but remember shirk /magic is more filthy and disgusting
May Allah guide and protect us all
Ameen
*I understand not everyone is in a situation to remove them from the learning these things at school,but we should be checking what they learn to talk the kids about it and refute it ,the energy we put in to protect them from the other filth ,we should be doing more than that for shirk ,most importantly by educating ourselves first and foremost

As a father, you have to show your daughters positive attention. Girls are prone to seeking attention, and usually a girls hero is her father and the one she seeks attention from.
This is especially important in these times of fitahn. If you do not do that, there's a high probability that they will grow up with a feeling of emptiness, seeking attention from other [wrong] men and end up emotionally [and even physically] abused, as well as looking for the wrong type of attention.
As a father, you are your daughters whole world, she will likely seek in a future husband what she saw in you, so be careful and be vigilant in showing her how a man is supposed to be. Your actions are like the rings formed in water when throwing stone pebbles, they might seem insignificant, but they will have an impact on future generations even after you, when it's her time to raise your grandchildren and they in turn raise their children.
Jabir ibn Abdullah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever has three daughters and he cares for them, he is merciful to them, and he clothes them, then Paradise is certainly required for him.” It was said, “O Messenger of Allah, what if he has only two?” The Prophet said, “Even two.” Some people thought that if they had said to him one, the Prophet would have said even one.
