The questioner is thanked for his concern with raising his children according to Islam. Parents must raise their children according to Islam and with a sound upbringing. Among the most important pieces of advice for raising children according to Islam are: connecting them with the Arabic language, introducing them to devout Muslim friends, encouraging boys to go to the mosque and attend knowledge circles, letting them hear the Holy Quran in beautiful voices, showing them Islamic cartoon films, introducing them to beneficial Islamic websites, taking them to perform rituals, teaching them the principles of creed, reading stories of the prophets and companions, and enrolling them in Islamic schools. In addition, parents must supplicate for their children and be good role models for them in adhering to the rulings of Islam.
