About This Book
Raising children according to Islamic guidance is one of the most important responsibilities a Muslim parent carries.
About This Book
How Do We Raise Our Children and What Is the Obligation of the Parents and the Children by Shaykh Muhammad Jameel Zeno addresses this responsibility from both directions — what parents owe their children in terms of Islamic upbringing, and what children owe their parents in terms of obedience and gratitude. Grounded in Qur'an and Sunnah, this concise book provides practical Islamic guidance on the foundational obligations of Muslim parenting and the reciprocal duties of Muslim children.
What This Book Covers
The Obligations of Parents Toward Their Children
The Islamic responsibilities of parents in raising their children: providing for their physical needs, teaching them the religion, protecting them from harm, giving them a good name, and modeling the character and worship that will shape who they become. The book draws on the authenticated hadith that make these obligations explicit.
The Obligations of Children Toward Their Parents
The Qur'anic and Sunnah basis for honoring and obeying parents — the specific ways this obligation is fulfilled during a parent's life and after their death, and the serious warning against uquq al-walidayn (disobedience to parents) that appears throughout the primary sources.
Practical Guidance for the Muslim Household
The book provides practical, actionable direction for parents seeking to raise their children upon the way of the Salaf — covering Islamic education, discipline rooted in mercy, and the cultivation of character from an early age.
About the Author

Who This Book Is For
Muslim parents who want their approach to parenting grounded in Qur'an and Sunnah rather than cultural habit. Also valuable for older children who want to understand their obligations to their parents.
