Newborn Baby Guide

Imam Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah (d.751H)
The Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) said, “Every one of you is a shepherd and everyone is responsible with regard to his flock.” [Muslim]

A child is a priceless trust from Allah, and raising children is no doubt among the most momentous events in our lives. Such obligation requires parents to learn, experience, and adopt a steadfast and anticipatory approach to nurturing, with the aim of elevating the standards of their family, their community, and the ummah as a whole. This book plays a part in that journey as a guide for the newly initiated parents.

When ibn al-Qayyim had a grandson, he had nothing of material goods to offer his son, Burhan al-Din. Instead, he penned this valuable book and gifted it to him, and it was from the best of gifts.

It is from the more detailed books on the subject imparting huge benefits that are rarely found anywhere else, especially in the English language.
