Future Daughters.

Why you so cute-mute Masya'Allah? Look at how this little toddler girl dons on the hijab. Purity when you see her laughing and smiling. Insya'Allah when I have daughters in the future, I will inculcate habits of wearing the hijab during their young age, explain to her why Muslim women need to cover their hair and teach her etiquette techniques and manners to be a pious woman.



 I believe the earlier you educate your child, the faster she grasps the knowledge. One wouldn't want their daughters to be oh-so ignorant about hijab matters when they grow old don't they? Better start from young,as this is the time when a child's mind is fresh from anything, able to accept knowledge fast and learn something new at a fast paced.

Some beneficial information I took from Muttaqun.com,

Introduce your daughters to wearing hijab as soon as possible, for instance, as soon as they can walk.  Prepare them for when hijab and niqab will be worn regularly at puberty; do not dress them in kaffir clothes, and then one day they hit puberty and must totally adapt to the modesty clothing of a muslimah.  
  • Remember that daughters like to dress like their mother.  
  • You may use positive reinforcement to emphasize the blessings of wearing hijab, expressing simple emotions that a child can understand, such as feeling sorry for other girls (the children of disbelieving parents) that don't get their own hijab to wear.
  • By puberty, girls should be wearing complete hijab, i.e. niqab, loose-fitting covering clothes at all times when going out of the house.
  • Muslimahs should wear hijab at age 7 to fulfill their obligation to salah.

    Till the next entry.
