How can young men aged 16-20 be raised to embrace jihad and masculinity, given the prevalence of softness and pampering among them?

One of the best ways to connect teenagers with the personalities of heroes and conquerors is to narrate their stories and recount their stances. This raises their aspirations and allows for discussions about the reality of Muslims and the schemes of their enemies. Do not be overly strict with them regarding matters of appearance, which are a natural characteristic at this age, but within the bounds of Islamic law. It is recommended to read the book "Al-Murahiqoon" (The Teenagers) by Dr. Abd al-Aziz al-Naghmashi.
