Abstract

One of the reasons for choosing the manuscript in our hands, titled “Raising Children,” by Al-Shihabi Shihab al-Din Ahmad al-Hijazi, was to clarify the status of its author, and to highlight the preciousness and pearls it contains in instilling good values and morals in the souls of children according to the Prophet’s method. And in fulfillment of our duty towards our honorable scholars of merit and precedence.

The scholar Al-Shehabi was translated, and the content of the manuscript, which included a number of etiquettes, virtues, and morals in raising children, was explained in a literary, eloquent, and sophisticated prose style. Which made this manuscript distinguished as a great treasure for parents, educators, teachers, and tutors, as well as for children and their own, emphasizing that males and females participate in providing advice and guidance, in light of the controls of Sharia law and the noble guidance of the Prophet.

In the conclusion, which included many findings and recommendations: Among them: The need for these etiquettes, virtues and morals is more urgent in our present era than it was in the era of Al-Shihabi, and attention must be given to making educational efforts to ensure the graduation of new generations.
