An important obligatory duty of mothers nowadays is to raise their daughters on faith and modesty; the fundamentals of Aqeedah, Qur'an, sunnah; and the example of the righteous salaf (early generations of women in Islam).
2)
Teach them to love their homes, care for their family, and manage their household in the best way possible; teach them that cooking is an art and a key that brings joy to hearts. Teach them to exercise moderation in spending.
3)
Train them to be the refuge and the source of compassion in their kingdom.
A mother's diligence in raising a daughter who cares about her hijab, prayers, and manners, and who abstains from needless intermingling with the opposite sex will greatly facilitate...
4)
...the daughter’s growth into a righteous and pious woman who zealously guards her femininity...
This goes hand in hand with teaching the girl to be a loving wife who also takes time to care for her beauty and practice her hobbies.
When a girl is raised upon...
5)
the principles of Islam, she will, Allah willing, enjoy all the blessings of Islam. A girl must not be pressured to work and earn a living - as is prevalent in our times.
Rather, she should expect financial support from her husband and trust that she has a family willing to..
6)
sacrifice everything for her. That will enable her to become a woman of resolve and a role model of a true believer who hastens to do what pleases Allah and not the opposite, Allah forbid.
One of the top priorities in raising children, in these times specifically, is...
7)
...teaching them to be proud of Islam and all its symbols, rites, and values and to courageously display them; while despising anything that goes against Islam.
The concept of pride in Iman should be entrenched in the hearts at an early age, as it fortifies...
8)
...the child’s character and makes him/her a zealous defender of rights and denouncer of wrongs.
The girl raised in a meritious Islamic way will reject unIslamic attire and denounce immodesty. She won’t feel tempted to imitate such attire because she evaluates things...
9)
...based on the parameter of obedience to Allah.
This in itself gives her immunity against the diseases of feminism; as pride in Iman is the way to combat the sense of inferiority and defeatism that opens the door to destructive feminist ideas.

Mothers:
your biggest achievement is to raise a servant of Allah who is pious, faithful, and a role model that represents Islam in the best way; a servant of Allah with an esteemed status in the hearts of the people, and for whom the believers pray.
11)
Such believing women are a great victory for Islam and evidence against the disbelievers.
So I earnestly encourage you to raise your children in the footsteps of the Salaf, for it is the way to their ultimate success.
