Our success is determined by following these rules and implementing them.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Moreover, the good society is the society where all its individuals are of good manners .<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The question is, who are the individuals that make up the society? They are in fact the fathers, the mothers and their children.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The parents should be a good role model for their children and they should teach them the proper manners and ethics of the good Muslims in order to establish a healthy society. On the subject of teaching children and raising them Islamically, Sheikh Mustafa Naja who was a former mufti of the city of Beirut said: \u201c<strong>younger children are easier to teach, unlike those who are pubescent. What you teach the child from a younger age, is what will make the major effect in his adulthood. The child is like an empty jug that will take whatever you fill it with.&nbsp; If you fill it with a pure substance, that is what will pour out<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">the role of parents is very important in raising children Islamically. Let us remember what the Prophet had said:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" align=\"center\"><strong>\u0645\u0631\u0648\u0627 \u0623\u0648\u0644\u0627\u062f\u0643\u0645 \u0628\u0627\u0644\u0635\u0644\u0627\u0629 \u0648\u0647\u0645 \u0623\u0628\u0646\u0627\u0621 \u0633\u0628\u0639 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We understand from this hadith that it is obligatory upon the guardian of a child who reached the age of mental discrimination to order the child to perform prayer, to teach him the rules of prayer after the child has completed seven lunar years.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The same is done in the case of fasting if the child can bear fasting. Moreover the guardian must teach the child the fundamentals of Islam such as: <em>All<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">a<\/span>h<\/em> does not resembles any of his creations and that <em>All<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">a<\/span>h<\/em> exists without a place and that <em>All<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">a<\/span>h<\/em> sent messengers and prophets, the first was <em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">A<\/span>dam<\/em> and the last was <em>Mu<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">h<\/span>ammad<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The guardians must also teach the child what is lawful and what is unlawful. Examples of the unlawful matters are stealing, drinking alcohol and adultery.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">They should teach the child what is obligatory such as the daily five prayers, and what is optional and rewardable such as using the <em>siw<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">a<\/span>k<\/em> and praying in congregation.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Dear brothers in Islam, What we are witnessing today such as murders, stealing and drug consuming is a result of the absence of the parents\u2019 role and their negligence in raising the child in an Islamic way as well as the incorrect teachings given to the child.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Therefore, it is important for us as guardians to consider seriously the way we raise our children.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Finally let us remember the saying of the Prophet:<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" align=\"center\"><strong>\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0631\u0621 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u062f\u064a\u0646 \u062e\u0644\u064a\u0644\u0647 \u0641\u0644\u064a\u0646\u0638\u0631 \u0623\u062d\u062f\u0643\u0645 \u0645\u0646 \u064a\u062e\u0627\u0644\u0644<\/strong><strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Which means, a person is likely to follow the habits of his friend so be aware of whom you take as a friend.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We ask <em>All<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">a<\/span>h<\/em> to enable us to raise our children Islamically and make them righteous members of our society.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All praise is due to Allah and may Allah raise the rank of our Prophet Muhammad and protect his nation from that which he fears for them.
