2. Be good to your neighbors and never speak ill of others.
Your child listen, absorb and emulate.

3. Speak & visit your parents and take your child to visit grandma & grandpa.
The more they see you take care of your parents the more they will take care of you.

4. Tell them stories. Well told stories have a great inspiring impact on a child.

5. Read to them a short hadith a day.This strengths parent-child bonds and creates beautiful memories.

6. Wear presentable cloths even if when at home.
The child needs to learn that being clean and tidy is not only when going out.

7. Try not to blame or comment on every word or action your child says or does.
This builds self-confidence and self-esteem.

8. Ask your child’s permission before entering their room.
Don’t just knock and enter.
They will learn to do the same when wanting to enter your room.

9. Apologize if you made a mistake. Apologizing teaches the child to be humble.

10. Don’t be sarcastic or make fun of your child’s views or feelings. It hurts.

11. Be patient and consistent.
Bringing up decent kids takes time and effort.
Don’t expect the child will listen or understand the first time you instruct them.

The Prophet ‏ﷺ never did when speaking to children.
May Allah protect your children and bless their behavior.

Very powerful and very deep!
These kids are the future of our Ummah. We need to have sabr with them. Let’s not drive away our little ones or their mothers from the Masajids.
Rather let’s make efforts to make special spaces for Muslim mothers and their children.
