Parenting

Translation of the abridged version of Shaikh Abdullah Ulwan's book. A comprehensive treatment that includes discussion of physical, psychological, social, moral, intellectual, and spiritual needs of children.

This book is the first in a series providing parents with material for the effective Islamic tarbiyah tool of storytelling. Here Muslim parents will find stories to correct common problem behaviours and instill Islamic concepts in their children. They will also discover how to storytell in a manner that will interest and influence their children.

Our children are the greatest assets that Allah has entrusted us with. We owe it to Allah and to our children, therefore, to invest our time and efforts into being the best parents we can be. Cherishing Childhood is a parent-to-parent handbook that outlines how to tackle the challenges (and reap the rewards) of parenting children from birth to pre-adolescence within an Islamic ethos in a pluralist society.
