If it’s difficult for them, you can begin by training them during weekends, holidays, or school breaks. The key is wisdom, gentle encouragement, consistency, and love. May Allah reward you for striving to raise your child upon the prayer and grant them a heart that loves it.\\n\\nRelated: \"},{\"attributes\":{\"link\":\"https://www.carolinaqa.com/q/668da0ab0b76658b4c233d66\"},\"insert\":\"https://www.carolinaqa.com/q/668da0ab0b76658b4c233d66\"},{\"insert\":\"\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668da0010b76658b4c232b9d","tag":"Relationships: Parent and Child","count":111},{"_id":"668da00c0b76658b4c232ca7","tag":"Salah: Timings","count":52}],"createdOn":"2025-05-22T04:03:42.955Z"}
