This might split hairs but I have to say it, because as someone who is probably older and wiser, I have insight that you can benefit from, insha’Allah 🖤

Stop giving children your mobile phone to keep them quiet…

You’re setting yourself and your children up for failure handing over your mobile phone to keep them distracted and silent so you can attend the masjid, or push them without a fuss in the stroller or keep them in one place at home…

You wouldn’t feed them candy and chocolate for dinner because it will rot their teeth and stunt their development…

The mobile device you’re handing them….

Rots their brain and stunts their development

Once you begin using the mobile, it becomes an addiction, not just for your child but also for you, because you don’t know how to distract them and keep them quiet without one…

Young children absolutely are physically exhausting and it IS hard work that requires great effort 💯

But….the mobile you use to pacify them will only lead to behaviour challenges and stunted growth

Instead, when you’re visiting the masjid pack a small bag for your toddler or preschooler with a colouring book and mess free crayons, ask them to take a small quiet toy with them and a favourite book.

Take a few extra colouring sheets or papers for the other kids who will want to join in who’s muma didn’t think to pack them something and encourage your child to share 🖤

At home, give them an activity or sensory toys that will hold their attention a short time so that you can take a breather!

You have to think outside the box here…

If you don’t use the mobile, your children won’t crave it and they will be ➡️satisfied with simple things

If you use it, nothing will settle them other than the glare of your screen and while they may be quiet holding onto it between their tiny little hands, you have bigger problems than a noisy child coming

HOW THE RIGHTEOUS PEOPLE OF THE PAST USED TO RAISE THEIR CHILDREN

Sufyan Al-Thawri said:

"It is proper for a man to force his child to acquire knowledge because he will be asked about this."

PARENTS DON'T DO THIS MISTAKE WITH YOUR CHILDREN

From the means by which a Jinn can overpower and possess the children

A very important point

Shaikh Ibn al-`Uthaymeen رحمه الله said:

❝Some of the foolish, ignorant people, lacking intelligence, scare their small innocent children and frighten them by saying: so-and-so will come (and take you), or so-and-so will (do such-and-such to you). So the child gets scared and this fear and anxiety remains in his heart, and this becomes permanent in his heart so that he is constantly in anxiety, fear and distress.

Sometimes it is the father who scares his son and sometimes it is the mother who scares her son and daughter.

But the most foolish ones are those who tell us that the when a child does something wrong (then as punishment) he should be locked inside his room, alone. And even when he shouts and screams they do not feel sorry for him nor do they open the door.

And this is one of the means by which a Jinn overpowers (and possesses) the child. This was conveyed by one of the Jinns who had possessed a child and said that he entered in him when his father had locked him inside the room, and he began to shout and scream, and that's when he possessed him.

So we should be alert and take precautions from the things which can become a means for the Jinn to overpower us.❞

Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal رحمه الله said about his mother,

"My mother made me memorise the Qur'an when I was only ten years old. She used to wake me up before fajar salaah and would heat up water for my wudu in the cold nights of Baghdad.

وكانت أمي تلبسني اللباس، وكانت تختمر وتتغطى بحجابها وتذهب معه إلى المسجد؛ لأن المسجد بعيد؛ ولأن الطريق مظلمة

Then, after dressing me up, she would cover herself fully in her hijab and go with me to the masjid as it was far away from our house and the way to the masjid was very dark"

Being Fair Between Children

‘Aamir narrated:
I heard Al-Nu‘maan ibn Basheer (may Allah be pleased with him) on the pulpit saying, "My father gave me a gift but ‘Amrah bint Rawaahah (my mother) said that she would not agree to it unless he made Allah's Messengerﷺ as a witness to it. So, my father went to Allah's Messengerﷺ and said, 'I have given a gift to my son from ‘Amrah bint Rawaahah, but she ordered me to make you as a witness to it, O Allah's Messengerﷺ!' Allah's Messenger ﷺ asked, 'Have you given (the like of it) to everyone of your children?' He replied in the negative. Allah's Messengerﷺ said, ‘Fear Allah, and be just to all your children (i.e., treat them all on an equal footing).' My father then returned and took back his gift." [Bukhari]

The aim of such a command was to foster mutual accord and affection between siblings, eliminating the causes of discord and hatred, and helping them show the enjoined dutifulness towards their father. Basheer (may Allah be pleased with him) obeyed the Prophet’s ﷺcommand, returned, and took back his gift to establish equality between all his children.

Imaam An-Nawwawee (r) said: “From this Hadeeth we
understand that it is obligatory for him to be equal in donating to
his children and that he gives to every one of them that which he
gave to the others, and that he not prefer one over the other and
that he must be equal between boys and girls.”

Sh. Ṣāliḥ al-Luḥaydān Hafiẓahullāh:

“Whilst in your Sujūd (prostration) increase in your Du'ā (supplication) for your parents, do not forget them for indeed Prophet (Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam) mentioned that the deed which does not cut off is the supplication of a righteous child for his parent.”

IMPORTANCE OF BEING A RIGHTEOUS FATHER.

■ Abdullah ibn Mas'ud رضا الله عنه used to pray at night and would see his small child sleeping. He would then say, "this is for your bright future" and whilst crying he recited: "And their father was righteous" [Al Qurʾān 18:82]

■ Abdullah Ibn Abbas رضا الله عنه said: "They were protected by the righteousness of their father."

■ Said Ibn al Musayb رحمه الله said: "I pray, then when I remember my child, I increase in my prayers." [Tafsir al Baghawi v. 5 p. 196]

Shaykh ul-Islām ibn Taymiyyah, [may Allāh bestow mercy upon him], said:

“It is imperative to educate Muslim children with that which Allāh has commanded them to be taught with, ensuring their upbringing is rooted in obedience to Allāh and His Messenger صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

The Messenger of Allāh, صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ, said:

‘Instruct your children in prayer at the age of seven, and smack them lightly if they neglect prayer by the time they are ten. Additionally, make separate sleeping arrangements for them.’” - Sunan Abi Dawūd 495

Majmū‘ al-Fatāwa, 11/504 | Shaykh ul-Islām ibn Taymiyyah, [may Allāh have mercy on him].

Al-Imām ibn Qudāmah al-Maqdasi, [may Allāh bestow mercy upon him], said:

“Instilling discipline and guidance in children involves encouraging consistent prayer habits, ensuring they grow accustomed to it. This practice aims to make prayer a natural part of their routine, fostering a lifelong commitment that extends beyond adolescence.”

Al-Mughni | Volume 1, Page 357 | Al-Imām ibn Qudāmah al-Maqdasi, [may Allāh have mercy on him].

The Power of Istighfaar : What effect does it have on your life?

One of the righteous people said,

"Do not overthink rather do a lot of istighfaar, for Allah taala opens doors with istighfaar that are not opened by overthinking."

As much as raising children is a responsibility, it is also a skill, and among the affairs one pays attention to are:

- Teach them with your actions as well as your words, avoiding contradictions between advice and application.

- Ensure your criticism is gentle, and keep the religion your main focus.
- Share in their thoughts and interests.
- Be close, along with overlooking [some affairs], and beware of your closeness becoming bothersome, causing them to seek distance from you.

- Encourage craftsmanship, whether in learning or technical creativity.
- Get them used to being responsible, even if slowly and gradually, according to their ages.
- Do not label them with ugly labels such that it sticks with them for life.
- Share in their success and rejoice with them.
- Avoid discouraging remarks if they stumble.
- Inquire about and get to know their close friends.

Daughters Are More Difficult To Raise Than Boys Today

Shaykh Sālih Ibn Fawzān Al-Fawzān حفظه الله said:

“The daughters today have become more difficult than the boys because they have started to go out to the schools, and go to the jobs and to the businesses. Therefore protect them when they go out. They should not go out while beautified. They should not go out uncovered. They should not go out unveiled and exposed. Regulate them with covering themselves, shyness and dignity. She should not ride alone with a driver who is not her close male relative because this is the impermissible seclusion. And how much has occurred due to the girls being with drivers, who are not their close male relatives? How much corruption and evil has occurred? Therefore fear Allāh, O slaves of Allāh. Protect your children - the males and females - because you will be questioned about them in front of Allāh. And their corruption is loss for you in this world and the hereafter. Thus fear Allāh, O slaves of Allāh. Protect your offspring. I seek refuge in Allāh from the accursed Shaytān.”

Raising The Children

Taking care of the child is the responsibility of both parents together. The Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) said:

"Each of you are shepherds and each of you is responsible for his flock. The man is a shepherd within his home and is responsible for his flock. The woman is a shepherdess within the home of her husband and is responsible for her flock." *

* Bukhārī (no. 853), Muslim (no. 1829)

💎 *Instilling righteousness and good character in your children are from the greatest of good deeds* 🌷

The companion Amr bin Al-‘Aas, may Allah be pleased with him, said:
ما نَحلَ والِدٌ ولدَهُ أفضلَ مِن أدَبٍ حَسنٍ
*“A parent does not bestow upon his child anything better than [instilling in him or her] good character.”* (Al-Jami’ Al-Saghir 8099)

The arabic verb َنَحل comes from the word نحلة which is a bee. It means to willingly give or bestow something sweet and beneficial like honey, from yourself to another. This shows us that, in order to instill in our children good character and manners, we need to first possess and display those characters and manners, so that we may then pass them on to our children. Good character and beautiful manners is taught first and foremost through actions — and not just words.

Shaykh Al-Sai’dee, may Allah have mercy on him, commented on this beautiful statement, saying:

_“The people who are most deserving of your good are your children. They are a trust which Allah gave you and He instructed you to give them a righteous upbringing that is good for their bodies and hearts._

_Anything you do in that regard (of raising them righteously), big or small, is a fulfillment of the obligation given to you and from the most virtuous things that brings you closer to Allah. So strive in that and expect the reward from Allah._

_Just as you are rewarded for fulfilling their rights when you feed, clothe and care for their physical health, you are also, and even more so, rewarded for nurturing their hearts and souls, when you teach them beneficial and truthful knowledge, guide them to the best of manners and warn them from what contradicts that._

_Instilling good character in your children is better for their present and future than giving them gold and silver and all sorts of materialistic goods, because with good manners and beautiful character they are elevated._

_With good manners and beautiful character they become (truly) happy and they are able to fulfill the rights of Allah and the rights of the creation. With good manners and beautiful character they are able to stay away from all types of evil and with it they fulfill good treatment of their parents._

_Neglecting to raise one’s children comes with great harm and danger. Imagine you had a garden which you cared for until its trees grew tall, its fruits ripened, and its flowers blossomed, and you then neglected it and did not protect it. You neither watered it nor removed harm from it, and you didn’t prepare it for growth at all times — wouldn’t that be the greatest type of ignorance and foolishness?_

_So how can you neglect your children who are from your own body, the fruit of your heart, a replication of your soul, and those who take your place while you are alive and when you die? They are those who, from their happiness, yours is fulfilled and from their success, you achieve great good:_ *“And none receive admonition except men of understanding.”* (Quran 3:7)

(Bahjat Quloob Al-Abrar)
