deeds Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ likes, and prevent them from the deeds Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ dislikes.’ (Tafseer Durr-e-Mansur, vol. 8, pp. 225)

1.         The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: Teach your children three habits: (1) Love for the Nabi (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم) (2) love for Ahl-e-Bayt (his blessed family). (3) Education of the Holy Quran. (Al-Jami’-us-Sagheer lis-Suyuti, pp. 25, Hadees 311)

(Sunan-ut-Tirmizi, pp. 383, vol. 3, Hadees 1959)

What else can be a better gift for children than this! These things are helpful in this world and the Hereafter both. Parents should not only make their children rich before departing this life, but they should also make them pious that will also help them in their graves as the reward for good deeds of living children are given to their deceased parents in the graves. (Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 6, pp. 565)
