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). Image
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.
10)

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.

Brother Hussein Miftar used to live with his family in #Sweden. He was a proactive, beloved, and influential individual.

About 6 years ago, the Swedish social services kidnapped his four children, a girl and three boys. There was no apparent reason for the abduction except.. Image

..the "religious upbringing" according to the statements of his friend, Mahmoud Aldbai.

Hussein strove earnestly to retrieve his children but to no avail.
His children loved him and were attached to him; they ran away from the social services in order to go back to him,..
3/

...but the social services kidnapped them once again.

One of his sons said in an interview: "My father never hit us, not even once, nor did he even raise a hand against us. Rather, he took dialoguing as an approach"

One of the common mistakes when dealing with young men who are about to hit puberty - or sometimes even those who already reached puberty - is being addressed by their non-mahram female relatives and female teachers as if they are still kids;
2/

While bearing in mind the strong reservations about young men having female teachers in the first place, which is another topic altogether.

You see a young man of 13 or 14 years of age, who might have already reached puberty, yet his female teacher or his mother's friend..
3/

.. calls him "Sweetheart" out of "kindness"!

Respected ones, we shouldn't address young men like kids!

Everything around them undermines their intellect and weakens their sense of responsibility; from their upbringing, to the "education" system which turns them into..

Some parents give their children whatever they desire and lavishly bestow on them materialistic things thinking: "Take what you want and just let me be"!

The father/mother occupy themselves with work and fulfilling their ambitions, and in their free time occupy..
2️⃣

..themselves with relationships with friends, social media and whatever else the parents find more enjoyment in than raising children.

He is busy, but he loves his son and is ‘concerned' for him... He expresses his love and ‘care’ through gifts and material luxuries.
3️⃣

My son asks me for something that is not in his best interest... To explain to him why, convince him, and provide him with the right alternative... is a difficult and "boring" process and the child is obstinate...

So take what you want, son... I will buy from you..

🍃 A heart-touching scene well known to fathers:

A child disobeys his father, so his father punishes him. The sad kid goes to the corner and sits silently not knowing what to do to appease his father.

The father knows how painful it is for the child to feel deprived..
2️⃣

..of his father's compassion, and not have the proper means to formulate an apology and get back into his father's arms. A feeling so heavy where the child feels lost even if he is a few steps away from the father.
3️⃣

The father, by his mercy and compassion, doesn't like seeing his child in such a state. So he asks the mother to go and tell the child: "go and apologize to your father, tell him that you are sorry, you will not do that again, and that you ask for his forgiveness”.

The wife: He doesn't show me any affection; I feel estranged from him.

The husband: I work day and night in order to provide Halal sustenance for her and her children; there's no time left over to pay attention to her emotions/feelings.

🔑 The solution: ...
2️⃣

"There is certainly for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent example" (Qur'an translated meanings 33:21)

No one is busier or more preoccupied than the Prophet ﷺ was, yet he taught us that the solution lies in the quality time we spend with our spouses and at home.
3️⃣

Here are some actions which don't take anything from your time, yet they demonstrate your love and help to maintain mercy between husband and wife:

I. The Prophet ﷺ said: "There is nothing you spend seeking Allah's pleasure except that you shall get a reward for it, ..

Two traits could place you among the best of women: ...
