Islamic way of parenting to transmit Islamic values

Parenting in Islam involves religious training of a child as it is a must to understand basic faith of Islam and reason behind man’s creation. Muslim parents teach their child to say prayer and other religious obligations but till adulthood mostly they are not able to understand its real essence and meaning.

Muslims must understand their religion without a doubt and here lays the real success of life in this world and hereafter. Islam is a religion of peace and offers a balanced life, it offers a complete code of conduct to spend your life, need is only to understand it. Islamic way of parenting is to groom your child as directed in Islamic teachings so that your child becomes a Muslim who will be a reason to promote actual teachings of Islam. Most of the misconceptions regarding Islam have developed only because we dint try to understand our religion and that is why our new generation is following values that will take them to a path of obliteration.
