Positive & Practical Islamic Parenting | Sr. Hina Khan-Mukhtar





Based on her popular 1997 parenting article “Raising Children with Deen and Dunya,” Hina Khan-Mukhtar gives spiritual and practical insights road-mapping ten ingredients to raise God-conscious children in the West:

1.) Dua, Dua, Dua
2.) Suhba (companionship) will make you or break you.
3.) The Prophet (salallaahu alaihi wasallam) was a living, breathing reality in our lives.
4.) Having fun wasn’t “haraam” in our home, but we kept the home environment as pure as possible.
5.) Our parents didn’t just “talk the talk”, they “walked the walk”.
6.) I wasn’t afraid to be the Bad Guy, but I never behaved badly.
7.) I always kept them close by.
9.) Talk to your kids…with love.
8.) We didn’t spoil our kids nor did we praise them too much.
10.) They had a pious father who engaged them.

    Our maulvi saheb in Pakistan would come to the house on Honda 175 cc (Bright blood red) to teach us three brothers the Quran. I was 13, the 2nd one was 11 and the youngest 9. Our maulvi was about 40 ish but a very jolly and talkative fellow. This was the mid 1970s and telephones were an elitist luxury in Pakistan, and we had one! Thus, the following arrangement emerged. Two of the younger ones would recite and learn the Quran while I would take off on maulvi saheb's Honda around the block for a few rounds. He had initially taught me the basics of riding the bike. Maulvi saheb would teach the Quran and use the telephone while I would make a few quick passes and return to finish up my lesson. We all finished our Quran and eventually all also learned to ride that bike! Wonderful memories!
