1.0 INTRODUCTION
Islam is a religion exposed by God for all people, in all places, at all times. As such, Islam is open to everybody and is mostly mindful of the importance of respect, rights, and responsibilities. These unique rights specified in Islam also cover the rights of children. Children’s rights are not certain by the actions of their parents, their communities, or even their governments. God Himself guarantees children’s rights. Loving for and raising children in the appropriate manner is an obligation on parents and it is not always easy. In fact, God retells us in the Quran that children may even be a great trial for their parents. The achievements and tribulations of life are a test and children are no exception.
