Summary

Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi lays stress on the topic of parenting children in today’s times and also shares his experiences of Muslim kids involved in drugs, pornography and pre-marital sex. We often naively neglect the environment around us in which our child is being raised. But with all the exposure to indecency, it is no longer time to be politically correct and hide in our conservative Muslim shells and be self-destructively naive that "It won't happen to my son and daughter!" If we treat our children with the maturity, intelligence and respect they deserve and hand out responsibility to them, we have far better chance of raising individuals who can lead much better lives making conscious decisions and staying away from the filth of the society. Dua to Allah to instil Iman in our children. The number one source of education for our children is us parents. If we do not set the bar for our children, we will be the one who will have to bear the ill-consequences.
