“We should understand that having a child is an immense blessing, and is a trust that has been given to his parents; Allah will ask them about that trust. The child’s heart is a precious jewel, hence parents must give thanks for this blessing so that it may be blessed further and protected from evils.” The parents must instil in the child that which will benefit his faith in Allah and Islamic morals and values. And they must protect this precious jewel from shirk (associating others with Allah), doubt, innovation, and sin. As a parent, you must understand that the first one to reap the benefit of instilling these values in the child will be you; that benefit will reach you after you die, and your child will honour you by honouring your family, and thus your good deeds and rewards will not come to an end. May Allah bless you and your children, and benefit us and you. This series of small books, which was originally published by Dar as-Salaf as-Saalih (may Allah bless them and those who are in charge of these publications) under the title Silsilat Atfaal al-Muslimeen al-Musawwarah (Illustrated Series for Muslim Children ), by Dr. Muhammad ‘Ali (may Allah preserve h offer a foundation on which the child’s character may be and guidelines that will help him to understand issues of and worship, and will instil in him good morals and conduct. I have found this series to be very easy to understand, providing knowledge that may be put into practice, beneficial to the new generation and suitable for young and old alike, as they sum up all that is good in different aspects.
Muhammad the Prophet by Maulana Muhammad Ali This book is one of my personal favourites. Written by an esteemed Muslim from Lahore, Pakistan, this small book is packed with information. It is interesting to note that while the author attempts to give an accurate portrayal, you will not find much mention of supposedly miraculous accounts beyond the miracle of the Qur’an itself. This is a very straightforward version. Though I was surprised—being used to reading accounts that include such miracles as Muhammad as a boy being approached by angels who removed and washed his heart, which is missing in this book—it is still very respectful and well written.
Shaikh Mubarakpuri makes it clear at the beginning of his book that he is not an apologist and will not attempt to write a “cleaned up” version in an attempt to make the story palatable to those who may be confused or offended by aspects of Muhammad’s story. This book is definitely best read by Muslims who are already relatively familiar with the Prophet’s life and mission. Miraculous events are covered in detail. Also, certain events that would be questionable by today’s standards are not hidden or removed. Unfortunately, no corresponding explanation is given to help one understand why the choices were correct for the time and place, so non-Muslims, sceptic’s and others who do not have sufficient background knowledge should steer clear of this book. That said, it is based on authenticated early sources, is well-written, strives for accuracy, and presents the differing versions of several accounts. Muslims generally consider this book to be one of the best books of seerah, next to The Sealed Nectar.
