Supportive Pillars in Cultivating Children By Shaykh al-Abbaad

Supportive Pillars in Cultivating Children
By Shaykh 'Abdur Razzaq al-Abbaad

Children represent the sum total of an enormous trust that Allah has commanded believers to observe and preserve, as reflected in His description of the believers: "And those who keep their trusts and covenants" (Surah al-Ma'arij 70:32). In this concise treatise, Shaykh 'Abdur Razzaq al-Abbaad addresses the foundational pillars parents must establish in raising their children according to the guidance of Islam.

The Shaykh emphasizes that just as Allah bestows the blessing of children upon parents, He also places upon them specific rights, obligations, and a test of their faithfulness to this trust. Drawing on the Qur'anic command to "ward off from yourselves and your families a Fire," the book outlines the supportive structures and consistent practices necessary for raising children who are firmly grounded in their religion — addressing both the spiritual responsibility involved and practical points of guidance for everyday cultivation.

This short, focused work is a valuable resource for parents seeking a concise but substantive reminder of their obligations, rooted directly in Qur'anic evidence rather than general parenting advice.
