| Rights of Children-Part 3 |
The Child has a right to life
Neither the father nor the mother have the right to take the life of the child, whether a boy or a girl, by killing it or burying it alive, as was done by some Arabs of jahiliyyah. Young age children's murder is the oppression of a feeble, helpless human being. What would be the answer when Almighty Allah will ask the people "The female child who was buried alive is asked for what crime she was killed."
"And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked. For what sin she was killed
(Surah At-Takwir 81/8-9)
3- Children have the Right to be fed and clothed
Mothers may nurse (breast-feed) their children for two complete years for whoever wishes to complete the nursing
(Surah Baqra 2/233)
4- Right to Education
Child's first School is mother
This means a number of things for a Muslim. First, the mother is regarded as the child's first school and a source of great influence on the child's character and manners. Islam encourages learning throughout your life.
5- Right to Love and Affection
Our Prophet (pbuh) loved children greatly
A bedouin came to the prophet (pbh) and said, "You (people) kiss the boys! We don't kiss them." The prophet (pbh) said, "I cannot put mercy in your heart after Allah has taken it away from it."
(Bukhari 8/27)
6-Right to be well provided (materially)
Treat the children equally
Nu'man b. Bashir reported: My father conferred a gift upon me, and then brought me to Allah's Messenger The Holy Prophet pbh had said: Observe equity amongst your children. (Muslim 3970)
7-Arrange / accept a good spouse for your son's or daughter's marriage
First marriage or remarry son or daughter in case first spouse has died or divorced
Narrated by Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri RA, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: If any- one cares for three daughters, disciplines them, marries them, and
does good to them, he will go to Paradise. (Muslim 5128)
Narrated by Abu Huraira RA, the Prophet said, "The one who looks after a widow or a poor person is like a Mujahid (warrior) who fights for Allah's Cause, or like him who performs prayers all the night and fasts all the day." (Bukhari 7/265)
8- Right to child's respect
Adults or parents must give appropriate respect to children
Prophet (pbh) while walking through the streets he would offer 'salaam' to children, play and cut jokes with them. Anas bin Malik reported that he passed by a group of boys and greeted them and said, "The prophet (pbh) used to do so."
(Bukhari 8/264)
9- Inheritance Rights
Birth Right or heritage property rights of children
10- Parents both father and mother are required to pray for their children's welfare
You can find 10 duas in Arabic and English in my book
The Prophet, peace be upon him, said, "The supplications of three persons are accepted, and there is no doubt concerning their acceptance: the supplication of a father, of a traveller, and of one who is wronged (oppressed).' (Reported by Ahmad, At- Tirmidhi,Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah)
11- Protect Children from bad friends and evil companions
