Children should be happy and
cheerful, and have a zest for life
and living.
Their lives should not be made
dreary and arduous.
They should be able to feel the
carefree joy and excitement of
growing up.
Parents must remember never to
show favouritism towards any one
child. All of them must be treated
equally.
If one child is handicapped or ill
then special attention must be paid
to him.
Some parents are more fond of their
sons than their daughters and, as
such, these girls are sometimes
neglected by them.
For this reason the blessed Prophet
Muhammad [s] has commanded
that special attention be given to the
needs of girls.
