Maashaa Allah thabaarakAllah, very well written and a great eye opener. As a senior person i notice that many many young parents are sort of stranded in life, may Allah guide them and give them the hidaya, aameen! If only they would follow Productive Muslim, for sure they are going to get straightened. The one problem is many are not consistent in whatever they do, so sorry to see that. May Allah’s blessing be upon Productive Muslim and its team and grant them the baraqah in all their resources, aameen!

Alhamdulilleh Im a revert of 10 years. I never knew having kids would be so hard. Subhanallah the responsibility is over whelming at times. I constantly pray my words and actions cause mine to grow steadfast to the deen.

I pray for all your children to grow into strong and beneficial muslims for our ummah. Please dont forget us and our children in your duas.

Please keep reminding us for reminders benefit the believers.
Jazakum allahu khairun

JazakAllah khair for a great article. I was brought up in a religious household and Alhamdulillah, these values are exactly what my parents instilled in us from a very early age. As we grew up and mixed with our extended family members and community, Allah swt put it in their hearts to acknowledge my siblings and I as role models for their children. All is a blessing from Allah swt for He had blessed us with great parents who strives to sincerely instill good character in their children.

What a thought-provoking and wonderful article that is so practical as well. You have made so many excellent points Brother Haroon. I will be working on implementing these into my children’s upbringing even more proactively inshallah.

I found the point about seeking honor in Islam to be so important especially in today’s anti-islamic environment.

Thanks for all of your feedback and comments on the article. It is an art to learn our children’s personalities. All 4 of my kids have complete different personalities and it is an art that every parent has to learn on how to approach each child.

The values mentioned in this article are important for all children but how you teach them to your children will depend on your child’s personality. You’ll never get to know your child’s personality unless you are spending time with them.

It is a must, whether you are a father or a mother that you spend time every day with your children to get to know them so you can learn how to instill these values in your children; since all of them will be different (most likely!).

If there is any advice you can share from your experience, please post it so we can all benefit.
