Of all the gifts and blessings Allah
has favoured us with, one of the
greatest is children.
As with all Allah’s blessings, chil-
dren too must be shown great
appreciation and respect.
The Holy Prophet Muhammad [s]
was very fond of children.
He was always very tender and lov-
ing towards them.
He taught that kindness and respect
towards children is a sign of true
faith.
Children must be treated as a gift
and a favour, and not a burden.
The first duty a parent has to his
child is to choose his mother care-
fully before marrying her. After all,
the mother will be the one who
takes care of the child in its early
years.
A mother must not do anything that
may harm her unborn child.
