Our current society is filled with uncertainties brought on by modern life. While the overuse of technology and social media may have hindered personal connections within families and communities, it has also sparked a rise in empathy and kindness towards others during difficult times. Positive parenting involves raising a child to be compassionate and responsible, making positive contributions to society. As parents, it is our duty to guide our children towards maturity and self-confidence, equipping them with strong character and necessary social and life skills. This book serves as a reminder to Muslim parents of their essential and unique role in instilling universal human values and Islamic principles in their children, preparing them for the challenges of life.
