Their Akhirah Starts With You
Raising children today is not what it once was. In a world where secular values increasingly shape the moral imagination of the young, Muslim parents are called to a higher awareness—one that is both rooted in prophetic tradition and responsive to contemporary challenges.
In Prophetic Parenting: What Every Muslim Parent Should Know, Shaykh Ahmed El Azhary draws from the Qur’an, the Sunnah, and the deep insights of classical Islamic scholarship to guide parents through the most critical dimensions of raising children who are God-conscious, emotionally secure, intellectually alive, and resilient in the face of modern pressures.
