The Integrity of the Family & the Role of Parents

Short paperback on Islamic parenting and family life by Habib 'Umar bin Hafiz, covering parents' responsibilities, marriage and raising children, in the Muslim world and especially the West. For adult readers (18+).

This short text gives a concise overview of the main responsibilities of parents towards their children. It also addresses many of the unique challenges and concerns faced by parents today, both in the traditional Islamic world and especially in the West.

Subjects covered include:

• Rearing children from a Divine perspective
• Factors which influence the rearing of children
• Marriage and the role of each spouse
• The concern towards raising children at each stage: before marriage, during marriage, during pregnancy, at birth, in infancy, childhood and beyond
• Mutual cooperation of spouses in the process of raising children
• Examples of ideal homes in the Prophet ﷺ and his family رضي الله عنهم
• And much more

The text is intentionally brief, providing a short but thorough introduction to this profoundly important issue. While it will not take long to read, putting its advice into practice will be the work of generations, encompassing many different aspects of family and community life.
